Will this be a "statement" game?

It's hard to make a statement when you are the bar that is set.

Come Saturday night, the Tide is gonna make an example of LSU.

So I believe that this will be a fourth quarter game but I’m getting Bama/UGA 2015, Bama/ND 2012, FSU/Clemson 2013 vibes also.

The statement I want to hear, is when the MDB begins the 1st note of Rammer Jammer!

You’re being extremely vague in what you’re asking for. Define what you mean by a “statement” game.

Statement Game...
If we win big, they will say we have a weak schedule.
If we scrape by, they will say we had a soft schedule.

If we lose... Perish the thought.
Everybody will proclaim LSU as the next great team...
They will say we played a soft schedule until we played LSU...

WE BETTER WIN.
Statement Game... They will say the SEC is soft ect...
Haters gonna hate.

We should win by 3-4 TDs. RollTide Roll.

I think this will be a statement game by both the offense and defense.

I think this will be a statement game by both the offense and defense.

I sure hope so. I also would LOVE this to be a statement game (in a good way) for our punter and kicker. LSU's punters and kicker are very good. Ours need to be even or better than LSU's.

Not to poo poo the post, that is a statement game for most teams, for Bama, well it is just another day at the office. We have beat most every top 5 team we played for a decade now. Bama can beat the #2 team(as we are usually #1) and no one blinks. At this point it is expected. YES it will be big win, but the statement game now boils down to one game and one game only, The National Title game. Everything else is just another game.

Yep. And the problem is that whenever we're out of contention for the NC game, we lay an egg against whomever we play. Like Utah and Oklahoma.
