It's that time of year again. As the month of November begins, LSU currently sits undefeated and at the top of the SEC. They are in a great position to win the conference and make the College Football playoff. However, this LSU football team has plenty of obstacles to clear before it can get back to Atlanta for the first time since 2011. The main obstacle standing in LSU's way is, of course, Alabama, and LSU fans would not want it any other way. Everyone loves to hate those 'Gumps' up in Tuscaloosa, but LSU fans have a special, intimate hate relationship with Bama.

This burning hatred, at least in recent years, mainly stems from former LSU coach Nick Saban leaving his NFL coaching job and setting up shop in the same division of the same conference (yes, we are still mad about it). The other part of the hatred stems from our disdain for the pretentiousness of Bama fans, and it is pretty hilarious whenever they lose a game. The TV networks do an excellent job of finding grown men in the stands that are crying at the end of Bama's losing efforts. For Alabama Hate Week, I thought I would highlight the best memes and photoshop jobs featuring Nick Saban and Alabama football that the internet has to offer.

1. Liar, liar... Stating the obvious

2. A coach who has criticized players for leaving for the NFL early, Nick Saban did the same thing whenever he left LSU for the Dolphins...

...and then did it again when he left Miami for Tuscaloosa. Nick Saban definitely has a price.

3. Just because the phrase "Roll Tide" is the most annoying phrase in all of sports. A close second is Ole Miss' "Hotty Toddy".

4. One of my favorite Alabama icons, Harvey Updyke, pretty much sums up the Alabama fan base as a whole.

For those of you who don't know, Harvey Updyke is the Alabama 'super-fan' who poisoned the live oaks at Auburn's Toomer's Corner (Auburn fans really like their trees). Updyke did this in response to an Auburn jersey being taped onto the Bear Bryant statue in Tuscaloosa. Hilariously, he admitted to his crimes under the pseudonym "Al from Dadeville" on the Paul Finebaum radio show. The audio can be found here.

5. Many would argue that Les Miles is more like Forrest Gump than Nick Saban. Still a hilarious picture.

6. What I think every time I see Alabama football on television.

7. Alabama: a place where grown men cry after losing football games

8. Probably the most annoying thing about Bama football.

The program has had a lot of success in its history. Why do they have to claim national championships that weren't awarded to them by credible organizations? The 5 national titles Alabama claims before Bear Bryant's first championship are highly disputed and are not very legitimate. There is a Bleacher Report article from a few years ago that discusses Alabama's history of claiming national championships... It can be found here
