didnt look like a #2 team today, maybe they jumped the gun like they did with usc, barely scraping a win out of kentucky, hmmmm not for the def td a loss was there interesting, i like sec up at top but only if they belong and bama doesnt belong at 2 not yet

Dumbasses and hotdogs, Saban is a punk. He really makes it tough to remain an Alabama fan. Don't forget that a majority of the players on this team were brought in by Mike Shula. Saban wins more games than Shula but he is still a lying, can't hack it in the NFL, PUNK. ROLL TIDE! I hope Saban takes a Charlie Weiss hit on the sidelines.

Puh-Leeze Obi-Wan (Obi-NON)..Kentucky was undefeated and had #1 ranked defense in the Nation! I suppose you think LSU should be # 1 with their 3 point win over Auburn who just lost to Vandy. Go play with some swamp rats in your backyard. And after Bama's game with LSU..Death Valley will be known as Red Valley..hahaha...

People don't know that Kentucky was that good?
They were UNDEFEATED.
Boy some of these posters are challenged.
Stick to soccer if you can't keep up?

#1 oklahoma's opponents have a combined record to this point of 12 - 15
#2 lsu's: 8 - 13
#3 mizzou: 13 - 13
#4 alabama: 17 - 14
#5 texas: 11 - 16
alabama is the ONLY team in the top five whose opponents have a combined winning record.
alabama is the ONLY team in the top five who has beaten 2 top ten opponents.
alabama was the ONLY top five team saturday to beat an undefeated opponent.
rail on against saban if you wish, but NO team in the top five has done what alabama's done to this point.
yet speculation abounds that we'll drop in the polls.
fact is we should have been ranked #1 last week and still should be #1.
corndog, you'd be wise to heed the advice coach saban gave you when he was your coach, focus on the task ahead.
you've got to go to gainesville with........................................what's your quarterback's name???

Enjoy it while you can tide fans, because it won't last long. I'd be scared of Western Kentucky, Arkansas, and Tulane too!!! You beat two teams, clemson and georgia and that's it! I don't think that warrants a jump to no.2 after starting the pre-season ranked at 24. Yeah, LSU has only beaten Auburn, but so what, we are the defending two-time national champion, we get the courtesy of being ranked high. And as far as our QB goes, remember John Parker Wilson wasn't the answer at Bama his first year either!

"Defending two time national champion" implies that you won back to back championships. You didn't. As for Saban and Alabama being overrated, you might be right. We weren't supposed to be this good. Is it good coaching? Players stepping up? I have no idea. But we are winning. I like LSU and think they are a damn good football team, but last year they lost to Kentucky and still won the NC. In that, we are up on them. As far as Death Valley goes, we'll just have to see. We can go in there and lose and still have a great season because despite all of our success, this is still a building year. We are still building toward the program we want to have. I'd say the pressure is on Miles.

I agree with Heffa. Even if we dont win the NC we are making great progress and will continue to do so. LSU hasn't exactly blown anyone away..unless you count N. Texas 41-3 and Appalachian State 41-13 (who are these guys?). Talk smack all you want..all of Louisiana will be crying come Nov. 8th when "death valley" becomes known as Crimson Valley. LSU doesn't have the depth or the guys to withstand either of Alabama's O-Line or D-Line. I'll send ya some tissues Obi-Non.

You know obi-wan, first you should grow some class and restraint which may be impossible for an LSU fan inflicted with Saban rage. Starting your comment off with "F U" is always a nice touch.
Second, you should be a little more humble so that if Alabama does win you won't have to eat 10 lbs. of crow. Just ask Georgia fans about dealing with Alabama at home in a big game which "we can't lose." Worry about your own team whose biggest win came against a team with no offense and who just lost to Vanderbilt. Giving up 24 points to MSU's offense was none too impressive either.

Post of the Year LTT!!! I couldn't have said it any better!!! ROLL TIDE ROLL!!!

Is it just me, or does anyone else think "Obi-Wan" reminds them of the 'BatDad' character out of the Southpark episode involving the little league fights. I just picture an overweight idiot sitting at his keyboard dressed in a corndog outfit typing an saying "Oh yeah Sabanation... fear the Corndog!" Good luck with your cholestorol checks Obi-Wan and stay off the meds. The only impressive win LSU has had this year has been.... well... no one. Your team almost tanked to a team that lost to Vandy and your team almost lost to MSU this year. Good luck with the madhatter too. I think he is the luckiest idiot I've ever watched coach.

What the heck is playing in Baton Rouge supposed to mean, LSU stadium has never been "death valley" to Alabama. What was it 2000, was the first time Alabama had lost to LSU in Baton Rouge.. We owned it from 1969 - 2000, thats 31 years !!! SO ROLL TIDE COONASS !!

James, it is very apparent that you are not a BAMA fan. Try as you may, you are fooling no-one. You should pay a little more attention to the line-up. We are playing more freshmen than any other team. Look it up! Educate yourself. These are not Shula's boys. And when you get to the Sophomore's just try and remember that Shula was not at BAMA when they were recruited. Mt. Cody is a transfer.
However, LSU did have all of Saban's boys last year. And they won in-spite of Miles. Just wait and see... Your tigers haven't played anyone this season. You are ranked based on the Halo effect from last year. LSU was not even a contender in the SEC before Saban. And now, with all his recruits gone... You will once again roll off the map and no-one will remember that LSU ever went to the Big Dance...
ROLL TIDE
