No, I’m telling you it’s a different situation when the coach and team (for the most part) aren’t even trying. That wasn’t the case even in those terrible 1990s teams.
no, that's not true. What is true is when LSU isn't good, their fans don't show up.
1990 - 5-6 record, 0 sellouts in Tiger Stadium, average attendance percentage of 89% (low of 63,237, or 78.9% for a conference game)
1991 - 5-6 record, 0 sellouts in Tiger Stadium, average attendance percentage of 86% (low of 64,341, or 80.4% for a conference game)
1992 - 2-9 record, 0 sellouts in Tiger Stadium, average attendance percentage of 84% (low of 57,641, or 71.9% for a conference game)
Contrast that to Alabama:
2000 - 3-8 record, all home games were sellouts, including a loss to UCF
2003 - 4-9 record, all home games were sellouts
2006 - 6-6 record, all home games were sellouts

Hell, Saban has to get on his knees and beg for Bammers to come to the games, even when they're good.
Odd fanbase, will commit all types of crimes in the name of muh ROW TAHD but can't come to the games.
The only thing Saban has complained about is people leaving early in blow outs.

For folks who worship Sabah, y'all sure don't listen to what he says.

You definitely slowed WAY down after Arkansas.
Disappeared altogether after State.

I just said Saban has to ask them to come to games.
That's fact.

It isn't a true Bammer thread if a Gump doesn't bring up 2019.

I intintually spammed the board the following Monday and continued posting through that Wednesday. How many times do I have to say this? You can go back and look for yourself or just continue with your rhetoric.
Walking into the stadium I got HORRIBLE family news (ARK) but I kept my word on showing up regardless to tRant

isn't it in Tuscaloosa? Why pay for something we already own? Not to mention it smells like rotten eggs out there.

So you’re telling me y’all are nothing but fair weather fans? Oof.
Oh please. Making the trip to shite hole that Tuscaloosa and watching our team get annihilated because the players quit on the coach and the coach doesn't give a shite? You try it.
Fair weather fans... Alabama is the worst about that. I expect to see a lot of those fans disappear as Saban continues to wind down. I bet your fans can barely handle 3 losses, that's what you're getting this year.

Saban’s statement was more about the fans creating a hostile environment for opposing teams. I remember the article you’re referring to, he referenced Florida’s crowd as an example.

Why not? It’s a lame duck coach who doesn’t care, and that’s going to reflect in the players. Why should fans pay for that dumpster fire when they can save their money for next year?

It's a 24 hour round-trip Greyhound costing nearly $160 to get from Baton Rouge to Tuscaloosa. Understandably, that's a tall order for most LSU fans given the state of their program.
Ohhhhh Damn !

Our fans weren't up for Louisiana-Lafayette, not LSU.
Huge difference.

ULL is the best program in the state, according to this board.
