When did Joe Schad become an expert on anything other that repeating news off the wire?

5 of the 12 picked LSU to win the BCS title, and 6 of the 12 picked LSU to win the SEC.

Why are LSU fans so anti-ESPN? From our perspective, it seems ESPN is extremely pro-SEC... Care to give some insight?

Because every year only about 1/4-1/2 of them pick an SEC school to win the National Championship. And every year 3/4-1/2 of them are wrong.

Also some of them seem to be picking Michigan to beat Bama just as a lot of them picked Oregon to beat LSU; which is dumb

Putting my bias aside, Michigan winning is a lot crazier than Oregon winning. I mean, yeah we smoked that arse but they were a legit team. Michigan has been living off of their name for 10+ years...

Yeah, Michigan could never beat Bama. It would take a powerhouse team to beat a Saban-coached Bama team.


Like UL-Monroe.

Nah man, I'm not saying they can't. I kinda think they might pull it off. But I was speaking relatively about the gaps between LSU/Oregon and Michigan/Bama...

Fair enough. I suspect there was a similar gap between Bama and ULM. Maybe a Marianas Trench.

Robert Smith wouldn't pick LSU to beat a 1A HS team in the Special Needs league.

We could have a RB rush for 5,000 yards and he'd find a way to say it's not that great.

Pick the underdog and look like a genius when you are correct.

ESPN doesn't hate LSU, that is just dumb and makes our fanbase that complains about it look like a bunch of jealous imbiciles. All we have to do is win, it doesn't matter after that, we don't need recognition from them to be successful.
