So, under the categories of delusion and just can't help themselves:
Listening to our local sports talk show on the way in this morning. The host is a former Bama beat writer. And I quote:
"Nick Saban forced the rest of the SEC to get better."
The next caller:
LSU reminds me of a certain team on the east side of the state who had a season like this. May as well have sprinkled pixie dust on em' cause everything that could go their way, happened for em'.
Host: Well now, LSU didn't have to have any miracle catches or 109 yard returns to pull out games. They destroyed everybody they played.
Caller: They barely got by Bama. Only beat us by 5 points.
Host: Bama scored a late TD to make it that close. LSU controlled that game from start to finish.
Caller: You and I both know if Tuer weren't hurt, we win that game easily.
Host: Well, that's probably true but we can only wonder what might have been.
