re: Let's Laugh at Bleacher Report - September 9th Edition

that makes some of the idiotic tantrums on the scoreboard during the games look like some Football Insider algorithm by comparison.

if these guys want to "sell" on LSU as a "legitimate playoff contender", fine, whatever, because that doesnt actually mean anything and I have no idea who the frick they are and see no reason to care what they think. so whatever.

but they're "selling" LSU to "buy" Florida.

meaning they essentially think Florida can win the SEC. Florida. who was 4-8 last year. who lost their last 7 games. who lost to Georgia Southern 2 games ago. who lost to Vanderbilt 4 games ago. oh but they snapped their 7 game losing streak by beating Eastern Michigan, and now they're primed to win the SEC. are these guys impressed because Florida threw it 47 times? because I assure you, LSU could have done that too. its not hard against these teams.

and to say LSU has no answer at WR is just cartoonishly dumb. the site has amari cooper in their heisman top 5. he has 25 catches for 319 yards and 1 TD. Dural has 6 catches for 291 yards and 4 TDs. so I guess cooper immediately falling down every time he touches the ball is good. its a "drive extender", as he says, whereas Dural scoring every time he touches the ball, regardless of where he is on the field at the time, kills the drive immediately.

and I suppose he's right, touchdowns do stop the drive, the refs take the ball away at that point, you're not allowed to just keep going, he's got me there.
