re: Who do you want LSU to play in a bowl game?

Here's my reasoning on LSU versus Boise in the Sugar Bowl- it would be the most talked-over game other than the BCS championship this season.

Don't think so? Well, I agree we could face a better opponent, but we are the perfect argument against the Boise/TCU Cinderella sentiment.

Lou Holtz loves to sputter against us, but he's also old-school. I honestly could see him making the point that if you took LSU out of the SEC and put them anywhere else, we might be undefeated going into the bowls in all but 1 of Les Miles' seasons. But we're not, and we play Bama and Florida (and each eventual BCS champ), and so our record is lower than Boise's, but not even by a lot... and this is why teams like Boise should get left out. Because we shouldn't reward teams that don't earn their way into bowls.

and then we go out and prove it in the game
