7 solid years of football does not make LSU a better program than UT.

LSU is a FINE program, but so is Tennessee. That is just a fact, not "delusion".


Head to head perhaps, but all time/overall, we're neck and neck with LSU.

The 90's does not encompass the Tigers.

Once again, you guys have had a great decade, but to discredit our tradition is blashphemy.

LSU's tradition started in 2001, before that you guys were a laughing stock. Historically Tennessee has always been in the mix for SEC/national titles.

Tennessee is a top ten, NFL producing machine.

Lesson of the story is that Tennessee is just as good as a coaching job as LSU.

I do not have the link handy but if you geaux to the NCAA site you will the data on all time wins, winning %, etc.

Last time I looked, LSU was rated between 12 and 15 all time.

Not too shabby.

Hey Ole Orange, go do tour home work before you start spouting out BS about ours and your footbal programs Here is a website for you since you just started following college football deuchebag. Tenn is only slightly ahead of LSU in terms of all time football programs!

Your last national title before 1998 was 1951 so shut the F up.

Historically, from the end of WWII Tennessee has one more national title than LSU , and from the time that man first walked on the moon LSU has one more national title. Since the beginning of this millennium, the ratio of LSU national titles and conference titles to Tennessee's national titles and conference titles cannot be computed because it would require dividing by zero.

Is "the 90's" your only baseline for tradition?

Look Im done here. I NEVER trashed LSU's fine football program. I only responded to people who thought Tennessee was a joke of a program.

Go SEC Go Vols!!!

When LSU coach Les Miles heard Orgeron was taking the Tennessee job as assistant head coach and recruiting coordinator, Miles drove to New Orleans after LSU’s win in the Chick-fil-A bowl and offered Orgeron a whopping $900,000.

That's a mighty big load of bullshiite you're laying down - the stench is underwhelming.

its his hope that every team follows LSU's '90s vs 00s run since his team has been irrelevant for an entire decade now.

Most of these responses were to discredit the asinine rumor that O turned down 250k to go to Tennessee. After which a T fan pointed out that this was because T was head and shoulders above LSU.

Then all the Tenn fans have been trying to prove why Tenn is EQUAL to LSU. Which in and of itself proves the "its not the money" argument is bullshite.

but you guys would have been even more next level with Coach O.

There is an even more next level you get to contend for after they hand you that crystal FB? Pray tell, what might that be? Says the powerhouse LSU fan to the dimwit UT bullshiiter.

Damn, man-child, you're just a real barrel of belly laughs.
