I really don't like playing a lower ranked team in a bowl game....it's hard for the team to get up for it.



How do you know this?

Most of the time in these types of bowl games the the lower ranked team is much more hyped about the possibility of beating a higher ranked team, especially from the SEC, that they usually do.



Funny, since the 2008 season, an SEC team has been ranked higher than their opponent 15 times. In those 15 games, the SEC has won 11 of them, so.....

We can hardly afford another bowl loss after losing the last several.



Several? LSU has lost two in a row, three of four, but only four of the last ten.

That's my point...the big underdog usually wins these games...they're a lot more excited about playing a higher ranked opponent.
