Who does Alabama pull for in the NCG, us or LSU?

Do they want Clemson to maul their hated SEC-west rivals, or does that whole SEC community love-nest thingy come into play?

as soon as they missed the playoff, even pulling for Auburn(!) in their bowl game. Sad and pathetic.

Most of my Alabama friends don’t pull for the conference.

I think they hold their noses and pull for LSU, because they feel more threatened by us

Why - LSU can keep them out of a championship game
Jan 2, 2020, 8:16 PM

We could if we are matched up - but not necessarily. Only logical to for Bama to hope LSU stays below them, not national champions.

LSU is a short term threat so they will pull for them, now if it was us against Aurburn that's a different story.

Our Auburn friends are pulling for Clemson. We support each other and always pull for them in the Iron Bowl.

LSU is a nuisance more than a rival to Alabama. They are the little brother they always beat up but is having one lucky year.
Bama fans utterly despise us because we cost them two national championships.
My guess is ~80% of them want us to lose because we are a real threat and actually hurt them.
Except for this year, Alabama bullies their conference routinely. IMO, Auburn is the only SEC team Bama fans despise more than Clemson.

Clemson is already a problem but only a post season problem. They don't want their in-division rival to get stronger. It would make sense for them to pull for Clemson.
Clemson needs to protect the sanctity of the Clemson Bama Invitations (CFP).

They don’t care who wins. They have moved on to next year. They only care about stacking more Nattys on top of the ones they have. If Saban goes 2 more seasons without winning one they will push him into retirement.

They want an earthquake that opens a crack in the earth and swallows both teams and their fans.

I was in a Sprout’s grocery in Queen Creek, AZ and ran into two Bama fans (mom and her preteen son). I posed this same question and she said she doesn’t mind seeing LSU’s success this year and is pulling for them since they’re out of it.

"It's a rule in the SEC you see". They will be fined and talked about poorly if they do not hitch their wagon to the bayou bengal.
And worst of all - if they don't support them they won't be able to holler - sec sec sec - like a drunken idiot.

hammers see that LSU has fixed their problems and now present a mounting threat. Many have been vocal about wanting LSU to lose to anybody.

I guess about half will close the curtains and shades, turn on the game and put on their Clemson hats or just pull for Clemson to beat LSU.
The other half will be decorating their yards, houses, and cars with LSU signs, banners, stickers and magnets. Buy LSU shirts, hats, and jerseys, then complain when they don't have the money for any future tickets and travel to Bama playoff or NC games.
