It would be interesting to see an SEC team play in harsh weather. I’m one of those SEC homers, but it would be cool to see an SEC team out in frigid weather and harsh elements. That being said…

Where would you rather spend a cold, winter day around Christmas time if you had a vacation?

A) Any city in Florida or Texas
B) Any city in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana or Pennsylvania

If you have disposable income and vacation time, New Orleans or Tampa sounds a lot better than Detroit or Pittsburgh in December/January.

I understand your point (a valid one), but people are more inclined to go where the weather is warmer. Which is why a lot of retirees from the North migrate towards the South, and the opposite rarely happens.

This is why the South attracts more top notch recruits, and will continue to do so.

I love how you’re bashing LSU for not destroying a couple of weaker opponents when ND needed 3 OTs just to scrape out a win over a horrible Pitt team. LSU’s only 2 losses have come from top 5 teams and both of which could easily have been won by LSU.

Your delusional. U got beat by a Florida team that was lucky to survive ULL? Towson is a high school team that gave you trouble. Your coach has done less with more talent than any coach in the nation. U keep hanging your hat on that UW win though sweetheart. U can’t have it both ways by bashing conferences like the PAC 12 but then gloating about an early season victory over a 6-4 Huskies team that impresses no one. Do your homework & see who has the best D vs the best competition. Then ask yourself which teams NEVER schedule FCS schools. I love your weak excuse about injuries, everyone deals w/ injuries you moron. ND is starting a WR & true freshman RB at each CB position. ND also doesn’t have the luxury of over signing in recent years….luckily Slive put a stop to that in the SEC. You’re loaded w/ more fatherless phenoms w/ learning disabilities than any team in the nation….and u still can’t go undefeated. I thought y’all would do it last year, but your idiot savant HC screwed the pooch again. Now go back to your mommy’s basement, reload the bong & go call Finebaum to cry how the SEC is still the greatest.

I was just correcting your retarded statement that our only quality win (and most people with more than 2 functioning neurons define that as against a ranked opponent) was against Ms State. We’ve actually beaten 3 BCS ranked teams. I’m sorry that you can’t understand that.

You do realize that A&M has a brand new coach and has actually lost to 2 of our defenses, yes? Oh wait, since you’re an idiot that didn’t even know that LSU beat them at home a few weeks ago, you probably didn’t know that, either.

And yes, we struggled early in the season against a couple of teams we should have blown out, mostly due to an inordinate number of injuries. What’s your excuse for needing triple overtime to finally steal a win from a horrible Pitt?

Moron.

Back at you. Washington is 6-4 and you’re touting that as a big win? I don’t care where they’re ranked when they have four losses….quit grasping. Besides if they’re not an SEC team, they don’t count as a quality opponent…right? Can’t have it both ways. A&M has come over from the Big 12 & schooled your precious SEC defenses….but wait now they’re an SEC team, too; so now they’re respected. Maybe you should admit LA-Monroe into the SEC so their win over Arkansas & OT loss to Auburn don’t look so embarrassing. You know the same Auburn that LSU only beat 12-10? Talk about hypocrites.

You said ND played “service academies” as in more than one. I know ND plays Navy every year as thanks to the Academy for saving them from closing the school during WWII…but I didn’t see Air Force or Army on their schedule this year. At least service academies are FBS teams, that’s a lot tougher win than Jacksonville St, Western Carolina, Coastal Carolina, Towson and the other FCS sacrificial lambs. Meanwhile there’s teams in the Sun Belt that are better suited for the overrated SEC. Louisiana-Monroe proved it this season.

I’m also a Gator fan, and you’re going to tell me that just because we beat 2 two-loss teams in LSU and A&M, we deserve to be ranked #6? Okay, nice road wins at A&M and LSU, and a home blowout of South Carolina, but where’s the other “quality” wins? Struggle against Bowling Green. Struggle against Vanderbilt. Struggle against Missouri. Get lucky against UL-Lafayette. Heck, that game wasn’t even against the entire state of Louisiana. It was only the LAFAYETTE part. Sorry, but we’re overrated at #6. Top 10? Maybe.

But I will say this: for all of you making Notre Dame out to be among the elite, you better use the same argument you have for the over-ranking of some SEC teams… their body of work. Notre Dame beat Purdue (aka Pur-DON’T) by 3. Notre Dame beat Michigan by 7. Notre Dame beat BYU (BY-Who?) by 3. Notre Dame beat Stanford in OT by 7. Notre Dame beat Pitt (Pitt? Sh!t) by 3… in THREE overtimes. Oh, and ALL of these games were at HOME! Not exactly a Murderer’s Row of challenges (NY Yankees reference thrown in for you older fans). Bottom line: yes, they’ve won, but they’ve dominated no one AT HOME. If it wasn’t for their win at Oklahoma, no one would give them any props at all, because they haven’t CONVINCINGLY beaten anyone, just like Florida hasn’t convincingly beaten anyone either. Beat USC on the road… BY A LOT… then state your case.

Oregon and K-State would have at least 2 losses in a real conference.

But hey, be thankful that you have one more year.

(BTW Oregon in particular has had at least 2 opportunities to beat an SEC team. They, um, how do I put this in lightly, failed).

Failed.

Failed.

Yes, I love saying it, you losers outside of the SEC fail.

-LSU is #7 in the BCS with two losses, struggles with Towson and Auburn. Lost two the only two decent teams faced. Only “quality” win is against #21 Mississippi State that only has wins against 1-AA teams and 3 win D1 teams.

———————————–

You’re an idiot. LSU beat Washington (#25), Texas A&M (#8), South Carolina (#9).

Oh , and it’s lost “to”, not “two”.

I know you all want to say the SEC is finally done, but look at the ranked teams, 4 Thru 9. Hey, what if ND or K-State had to play a Top 5 team in a Conference Championship? Huh?
