The most annoying cheer that any crowd can yell when winning a sporting even is "Overrated". Apparently, a bunch of LSU devotees felt that this was appropriate during the latter stages of the Oregon game. Look, if we are trying to make ourselves look super, then isn't it better to acclaim the opponent as real good? To demean the opponent as "overrated" dimishes the value of a big victory. I'd rather everyone think that we'd beat a stud, which makes us a bigger stud, than to think that we only beat an overrated patsy - something anyone else could have done, too.

Sorry, I don't give a shite what others say. We will prove it on the field and that is all that matters.

I don't care as long as there isn't 9 minutes left in the game.

I liked it because it was a pun on their "O" symbol.

And I was one of those students doing the cheer, btw.

I don't know why people over-analyze this chant. People do it simply because it sucks being on the receiving end of it.

Oregon was rated 3rd. LSU was rated 4th. LSU beat Oregon. They were literally over-rated. Then we fixed it. And reminded them of that over and over again in case there was any confusion.

Where u there pussbag? It was exceptionally fun due to holding up the OR "o" before saying it. Not to mention the duck fans acting like their duck shite didn't stink So go be a pussy elsewhere
