TCU has faced 2 ranked opponents, while LSU has faced .. count them 5 and is 4-1 against them.
The combined records of all of TCU's opponents this year is a whopping 43-50. Yes, "Quality" opponents right.
LSU schedule so far is a combined 51-30.
In the words of John McEnroe..."You cannot be serious" that TCU gets all of this love, and LSU is trailing this team in the polls.

Wow! Great post. It would be murder if a 12-0 TCU got in over a 11-1 LSU. The SEC should secede.

They may be good, but you have to play and beat good teams to prove it...and they haven't.

There really is no comparison between the resumes of LSU and TCU.
I like them, but I get sick and tired of the bullshite talk about them and Boise.

I love posts like this. TCU could succeed in any conference in the nation this year.
Seriously can some of yal not watch football and see how good this team is? Do yal not know they start 21 seniors? Their OL and DL (where championships start) are as good or better than any in the nation. They have the best defense in the nation, period. Their QB is probably the most underrated in the nation. They have a great return man and (I could argue) the best head coach in the nation.
TCU beats LSU by 14.

I'll add that Utah (ranked #5 at the time they played) has beaten one top 25 team all year and it took OT to do it.

Alabama has beaten one good team this year, does that denigrate our win?

What was your Florida prediction? What about your Bama prediction, Nostradamus? I think you are taking your name too seriously.

Both TCU and Bosie State employ the same offense. Put a good athlete at WR and have them outrun the secondary. Throw ball to WR.
Of course, that type of offense scores tons of points, but won't work against athletic defenses.
TCU and Boise State's defenses are geared how our football team prepared in High School. The opposing team has maybe 1 or 2 players that you practice to stop. In Big Boy college football(LSU, Auburn, SEC,etc.) you have to account for all position players.
TCU and Boise State does a very good job at saying 'Well, we can only play our schedule'. What they're not saying is 'We made our schedule super easy so we can win a lot of games.'

I'll give you that TCU and Boise are good this year and on any given day can play with anyone in the country. But, if they had to play a SEC, Big 12, Big 10 schedule they wouldn't be undefeated.

TCU is legit. They have pretty much destroyed all their opponents and we have had some games come down to the wire. I am sure if we played it would be a very close game. Of course, I am taking the Tigers but TCU is damn good.

I have no problem with TCU being ranked where they are. They are very solid with ZERO weaknesses. Hell...UTAH looked like a bunch of high school kids next to TCU. TCU is big, fast and physical and would fit nicely in the SEC.
They cant help that they are in a crappy conference this year. I wouldnt want to play them this year...I think we lose.

So, LSU should schedule Tulane, ULL, LA Monroe, etc., destroy them all, and that will make us legit?

-I had us beating Florida by 14 (they suck and we shoulda beaten them by that much
-Had us losing to Auburn by 7. I was off on final score but right on margin
-Alabama was too close to call!
I'm telling you, TCU is an exceptional football team. They're better coached than we are and they're not your typical non-AQ team that you can just pound on; their OL is as big or bigger than ours and their DL is legit too.

When was the last time LSU destroyed someone regardless of the opponents caliber?

My point is, beating up on shitty teams doesn't prove much. It proves you can beat shitty teams.

1st half of UNC... lol

I love posts like this as well.
Considering that they beat Oregon State (with a losing record in Pac10), Baylor, Utah (Claim to fame - beating Pitt , Iowa St) - how did you analyze or jump to the conclusion that in the hypothetical game of playing in any conference -that they would succeed?
Please read the above argument regarding comparison.
Au with Cam beat us with a 1 TD differential and TCU (with a non-tebow type player) is going to top that.
Like someone else mentioned - you are probably reading too much into and believing your own user name.

Not really. BSU run a proper WCO. Petersen is a disciple of the Walsh coaching tree. Still if you've got a guy faster than any of the opposing defensive backs it does kinda help to throw it to him.
