Upvote = yes I’m pulling for them
Downvote= no, eff em


I’ve had some arguments over this and in my opinion the SEC is strong enough to not have to pull for our enemies in our division. The playoffs and potential expanded playoffs magnify this feeling.

Let’s go Bearcats

I'm pulling for them but only because I placed a parlay bet for Alabama and Georgia to win.

I don’t get the “I root for a team because SEC”

Please someone explain to me how Alabama or Georgia winning a National Championship helps LSU and maybe I’ll change my mind.

I want Cincy and Michigan to both win.

Where’s the not watching/don’t care option?

Also, Bama will rape them.

The respect the SEC gets is why they have two teams in the playoffs. That respect comes mostly from winning playoff games. LSU benefits from that respect. One year we might win a championship that, but for that respect, we would not have had a chance at, just like Georgia might do this year. Georgia would not be in the playoffs had Bama, UF and LSU not won half this century’s championships.

Cheering for your conference made sense in the BCS era. Not so much now in the CFP era, especially with the prospect of the playoff expanding.

I am a Michigan and Cincy fan this weekend. We don’t have to recruit against them.

To steal an old joke, cheering for Alabama because they are in the sec is like cheering for the devil because he's in the Bible

I really don’t care.

Obviously I would love to see Bama lose.

But also I kind of want to see Bama curb stomp them, because a team with Cincinnati’s resume being in the playoff is a joke.

I hear you and I appreciate the well thought out response but I still want them to lose. I don’t give a shite about that.

To me win the SEC and you are in if you don’t win the SEC and get left out then that’s on you for not winning the SEC. Just my feelings.

Win all of your games and it doesn't matter.

Bama winning a championship and using that for recruiting hurts LSU way more than any "conference respect" BS

You’d have to be completely mentally retarded to want Bama to continue winning and raping LA for recruits as a result.
