You scored 20 points on our defense because you started inside the Bama 50 yardline the entire second half, which once again was the result of the no-call and the resulting bad field position for Bama. If you think that we're just making this all up, why don't you get a copy of the ESPN broadcast and listen to the announcers talk about that play changing the momentum of the game, for the entire second half of the game. They commented on that play at least 6 times in the course of the game, but then again you'll probably find some way to discredit them in your mind also.
 
Since Bayou deleted my earlier post.....Go away Lsuby16....You werent here before so you are obviously here to do nothing by start trouble.....

so the fumbled kickoffs had nothing to do with that? it WAS the no-call.

** okay ***

wow.
 
Heres the thing normally I do not complain about a call being the reason that a team wins or loses a game, but then again it deends on the call, the timing of the call, and what results after the call. In this case the call did more then likely cost Bama a win, with either a call or a catch if the player is not knocked down, the LSU player does not return the ball 44 yards, because Bama scores on that drive, which would have resulted in a kickoff, backing LSU up to at least their own 20 yardline on the next series, at which time Bama would have been up by a minimum of 7 points, but possibly more. Unless LSU sustains a drive on that possesion, or scores Alabama has decent field position on their next possesion etc., etc. etc. Now it is possible that LSU could have come back and won anyway but it likely would have remained LSU who had bad field position the rest of the night like they did in the first half, but we'll never get a chance to know because the ref's didn't give anyone a fair chance to find out who the better team was. I can tell you this much LSU WOULD NOT have had the ball inside the 50 the entire second half so I can assure you they would not have scored 20 points on our defense with a long field.

after LSU intercepted the ball, ran it back 44 yards, ran some offense and punted, couldn't Alabama have done something at that point to preserve the win?

It might have been a bad no-call but that is football. You guys have started dwelling on this because it gives you a way to not face the facts. It gives you a way to say to yourself that you would have beaten LSU.

The fact is LSU is THE better team. Even with inconsistent QB play and only four contributing seniors LSU IS better. The proof is in the 4th quarter. LSU wore down Alabama and won the game, which was expected. You fought hard but don't have the depth. You didn't lose because of a no-call. Not with so many opportunities, many of which Alabama blew.

Instead of offering congratulations to the winner, you guys dwell on a perceived bad call, even alledge a payoff, and hold to the belief that if not for one no-call you would have avoided a 16 point defeat and won.

wow. bama football ain't what it used to be.

Well you are entirely wrong my friend. Sure we will never know what the outcome would have been if....

My complaint isnt that the play-no-call decided the game, but it sure did help LSU. Alabama was winning the field position and keeping LSU in check. That play swung the field position battle completely opposite. And it changed the momentum big time. The fumble inside the 5 might have never happened. Until that point Bama had started on its own 45, LSU on its own 10.

Sure LSU might of won, but Alabama might have won also. Due to the obviously blind official he ruined that game. I would be as equally upset if Bama had got a play like that. That was crap anyway you look at it. I dont blame the game on that, but it didnt hurt LSU's chances. I turned the TV off after they didnt throw the flag. I was protesting in my own way.

So if that ever happens against LSU come back and chat about it.
 
Your a moron, likely the fumbled kick-offs would have never even come into play, because if field position had been reversed you guys would not have scored therefore there would have been no kick-off to fumble or are you just too stupid to understand this concept?

If BAMA has the momentum and LSU doesnt score, no the fumbled Kickoffs dont happen.

** Okay ***

WOW!
 
LSU your just too stupid to hang around argueing with anymore, its very clear from your user name that your new to the site and came over here to do nothing but cause trouble anyway. Where were you prior to the game? But now that you guys won, because the ref's are too stupid to call a fair game your going to come here and try and defend that play in the game, I can live with losing a game if Bama loses it themselves, and I'm proud of a team that has been through a lot and plays with a lot of heart that never gave up even when their fellow teammates have been dropping like flies, but Bama didn't just lose the game because they were not capable of winning, they lost because LSU had help.
 
LSUby16 I understand what you are saying.

You won by 16 pts and we are complaining about a 7 point swing. Granted.

The point I would like to interject is, we are not talking about a 7 point swing. I am suggesting that the no-call was a huge momentum swing.

You and I both know that a pass interference call on that play changes every play the rest of the way. On Addai's long TD, Charlie Peprah got caught up in the line trying to blitz. It was a good run and there was some great blocking, but I think Peprah makes the tackle if he's not blitzing. If we were up 17-6, I don't think we would have been blitzing like we were.

I could be wrong, obviously, but the point is, the no-called switched momentum, and the 4th quarter playcalling would have been totally different if we were up 17-6.

Good game. LSU is better than Alabama in 2004. I love Alabama.

Alabama players and coaches were so devastated by a perceived no-call that they were unable to gain their composure and their play changed?

Perceived huh? Everyone in America that saw that play knows it was a bad call, but to you it was perceived. If it had gone the other way you'd have screamed your little head off. You come over here talking crap about all these situations, what might have been, etc. You want congratulations. Fine, congratulations. You guys have a great team, I'm not going to dispute that at all.

But why don't you grow some cajones and admit your guy freakin' tackled our guy in the endzone, that it was NOT a "perceived" bad call but was in fact PI, and that as a result the field position was switched right then and gave you guys an advantage. Of course the muffed punts hurt us, but so did that call, and those muffed punts ain't the whole story. Our team is decimated with injuries, we owned you all that first half, and we started out great the second half, but we do NOT have the type of team that can run a passing offense that deep in your territory. As for your guys running all over us at the end, well DUH, our defense was so pooped at that point, my grandma could've scored on them, but that is NOT their fault. They played the best they could, and I'd take us over you any day.

If you were serious about talking about this and being fair, that's one thing. But your name, LSUby16, pretty much proves you're not. To not even admit there was a bad call, as far as I'm concerned, makes the rest of what you have to say a moot point and completely idiotic.

Thanks for stopping by :)

He made his usual

lame excuse.....the official did not see it.....well that would work if not 2 were right on top of the play.It just confirms what I have known all year. The SEC officials are corrupt and will never be held accountable.

I agree 100% with that statement. That no-call helped LSU. It was a turnover.

However, I think LSU won because our defense played very well, shutting down the bama offense in the 2nd half. Our offense was on the field alot and our o-line eventually wore down your d-line and we scored two TD's on two big plays. to suggest all of that is because of a no-call is a stretch don't you think?

It was a 26-10 game, not a 3 point loss.

If that official was not in a position to see the play ( per Gaston), who was that impersonating him on the replay. Get him a seeing eye dog for crying out loud, but fire him from his officiating job.

we owned you all that first half

The first half of OUR game? wasn't it 10-6?

That is owned?

Yes, I am here after reading the comments about this call.

Even that play is being stretched to fit the truth.

First of all, there was contact by both players. By rule offensive interference could have also been called.

Secondly, the bama guy sure did move his feet funny if he was pushed. looks more like he didn't pick up his left (back) foot and fell.

Thirdly, Webster has every right for the ball and he played it perfectly. He looked at the ball, held his ground and intercepted it. AGAIN - he looked at the ball before, during and after the WR fell. AGAIN - he has a right to the ball as much as the DB.

And lastly, if that was a fade, then the execution was poor. To catch that ball the WR must go THROUGH Webster. If Webster had blocked his route without looking at the ball its PI. If not then its just Websters right to the ball.

Look at the video put up by a Bama fan(named by a bama fan). Tell me that
1) Webster isn't looking at the ball.
2) That isn't a poor throw just waiting to be picked.
3) They don't both need to be where Webster IS.

honestly now.

Understand the rules before you spout your stupidity. When the head of SEC officials says it was a missed call what in the world are you talking about?
Yes, it is true both players have equal right to the ball. If both players had hands going for the ball and they collided you may have a point. However, this does not mean that he can shove the guy & then catch it. The recievers hands were up to catch, not the defenders. It doesn't matter where the defender is looking. It matters what his hands were doing.

So, if you want to talk rationale, then do so. You are free to make your case for LSU. Some of your comments are valid in your 1st post. But this last one of yours was just pure crap.
