Bye Week Hate Week!

by The Ghost of Jay Cutler on Nov 4, 2008 3:10 PM EST

Oh, bye week, you're so going down on Saturday. Peria's Legion, the Powe-Ped, and da Lil' Bastid have got it out for your blood. We're gonna stomp your ass so deep in a mud hole that you....

You know what, forget it.

I was going to try to talk shit to our upcoming opponent of nobody, but I can't muster up the energy. Furthermore, I really don't mind bye weeks all that much. While I'd certainly love to see Ole Miss on Saturday, I feel that this gives me an opportunity to let my hatred for LSU and those DAMNED ULM WARHAWKS fester to genocidal proportions. And, since Ole Miss can't possibly lose, I'll undoubtedly have a good time.

However, I will be facing a bit of a dilemma.

With regards to the LSU/Bama game, I haven't a clue as to who I should pull for. Barring the apocalypse or, at the very least, a huge sub-Baton Rouge sinkhole falling through, someone will leave Tiger Stadium victorious. While seeing LSU slip to 3rd in the West after we trounce them in a few weeks (you bet your ass I'm callin' it) would be sweeter 'n Grandma's coconut cake, watching Alabama's national title hopes geaux down the shitter would be just as wonderful.

What is a furtive bloggeur to do?

Eh, well, either way I'll be glued to a TV; something grilled in one hand, something potent in the other, and sporting a snide-ass grin on my face.

Remember, we're taking a week off from winning while State's taking a week off from losing. Refreshing, isn't it?

What are the chances of getting that sinkhole?Barring a godsend such as that, I will have to pull for the Tigers.Because I am deluged with Bammers where I live/work there is no possible way I can support a Bammer nashnul champeenship even if that means supporting the Red Stick Tigers.If the phrase "got twelve" all of the sudden became "got thirteen" it would be intolerable around these parts.But I gues I could go into the corny t-shirt business with a customer base like this one.

You pull for LSU so that when we beat their ass in a couple of weeks it stings the Tigahs even more.

If it makes you feel any better, we're 3-3 right now in SEC play. LSU is 3-2. Even if they beat Bama and Arkansas, we will still be able to tie them in the standings at 5-3 by beating them.

And technically we'd get listed ahead of them in the standings, so you can pull for LSU.

I won't necessarily be pulling for LSU myself, because I can't make myself do that. However, I will be not necessarily be pulling against them. I can't stand Alabama at No. 1. If they lose, great. If Bama wins, then LSU loses.

If you take that as a half full approach, you can say that the good news is that they both can't win.

Don't worry 'bout it...Florida is gonna fuck Alabama up big time. Bank on it!! At any rate, by bama beating lsux and we were to run the table, it helps us out bowl wise.

I just want to see some key injuries for LSU on the offensive ,line the defensive line, the secondary, the linebackers, running back, and WR. If I can't have that then both QB's going down will suffice where we can focus on stopping the run.

I'm not pulling for either team I just want to hurt each other. With LSU catching the brunt of the hurtness.

Get used to the phrase "got 13" because even if Bama doesn't get it this year, it's coming soon.

This goes without question.

You pull for LSU.

1) When Alabama loses to the Tigahs, many things will unfold. First, Alabama is a team of quitters. They quit in the second half against Clemson, GA and the Rebels. They quit at the end of last year after getting beat by the Tigahs. They will quit again at the end of this year, losing to the Tigahs, then losing to State and Auburn. I am I crazy? Maybe, but if history means anything, they did do it last year.

2) What this means for the Rebs. If Bama loses out...and then the Rebs win out...Hotel rooms in ATL are then essential, along with as many tickets that one can buy/then scalp to the SEC Championship, cuz then FL will get its chance at revenge. Of course if this does happen, there is just as likely a chance that the Rebs will get a revenge shot at Vandy or SC in the championship game. Still, you pull for LSU for the following reason.

3) Fuck Nick Saban. No explanation needed but here is a good one. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/64732-why-does-lsu-hate-nick-saban

Yes I realize this is a prop piece for Saban, but he is the only reason LSU is good (the hat has only kept them good), and for that, Fuck you Saban.

You *have* to pull for LSU. Here's the deal.

LSU beats Alabama. We beat LSU. We feel better, we have the head-to-head with LSU.

State beats Alabama. State feels better. Temporarily. Then we kick State's arse in the Egg Bowl and we keep them from being bowl eligible. That means we feel better.

Auburn beats Alabama. Tubberville stays, we have a chance to beat him aGAIN. That means we feel better.

We win the west, go to Atlanta, beat LSU, keep State from being bowl eligible, and get to make Tommy our bitch again. If you can make a better scenario than that, I'll pull for Alabama.

If Bama loses out and we win out, we'd still both be 5-3, with Bama winning the head-to-head. If LSU winds up 5-3 as well, it'd be one of those weird three-way ties with no head-to-head victor like what almost happened in the East a few years ago. (Or did it happen? I can't remember.) Anyway, I'm pretty sure it goes to BCS standing then, but however it's determined, I'm certain it doesn't end with Ole Miss in Atlanta.

Root for Bama. It'll make it even sweeter when Tubby ruins their hopes or when Florida crushes them in Atlanta. Either way, they will not win a nat'l championship this year.

Also, fuck LSU.

Actually, the next tiebreaker should be division record, which would be Ole Miss, since we'd only have lost 1 Western Div. game. As unlikely as that is, I'll have to root for that scenario. Which means, yes, rooting for both MSU and LSU. Ick.

You poor Ole Miss fans are still in some dream world where you think it's your given right to be good. Eli Manning has long since come and gone, and was the only reason a team from Mississippi won ten ballgames. Get used to seven and eight win seasons because that is all you will ever be able to obtain.

Roll Tide Roll! We will win out and you can take comfort in the fact that you played a good second half against the National Champions!
