LSU beat MSU……which is a ranked team

Let's be honest. MSU and LSU are probably the only two teams she's even capable of "intelligently" discussing. She doesn't know the game...and probably doesn't even watch the game. Someone should ask her how many games she's watched this past week.

She also ranked Maryland #21, higher than anyone else. They're final ranking was #32. 54 writers had them unranked. She was definitely an outlier w/ some of her votes.

...except she doesn't consider them a ranked team...except in this very argument she's making to justify ranking them.



It's an embarrassing attempt at logic, but the real problem is that she's not qualified to be an AP voter.

They just give anyone a vote these days.

Leah tries hard but this job ain't for her. No offense to her.

I guess that means she thinks MSU is better than LSU. A lot of people think that; it’s not at all unreasonable.

Too lazy to find the tweet but during the baseball series AT Florida she said she was hoping Dylan Crews hit a walkoff since he’s from FL & it would make a good article

You are talking about someone hired to cover LSU baseball, but took a weekend off in May when they played the eventual CWS champ.

They beat Michigan state and lost to Michigan so far. Those two teams are also mentioned in her LSU rebuttal. I’d bet my 401k she has a male relative picking her top 25 or at least advising her in Michigan.

One the worst beat writers LSU has had in quite some time.

I am 100% confident that any person who posts on the TR regularly could take over for her tomorrow and do a better job.

She doesn’t even seem to like football. It’s strange.

She’s a chick and she probably doesn’t even know what a first down is

LSU has yet to beat a ranked team, which is why I ranked State over LSU.


We beat MSU whom you have ranked. That should calculate into your thought process, lady.

Not only is she 12 years old and unqualified for the job, she's too scared to rank the hometown team because she's worried about being labeled a homer.

What was her reason for taking a weekend off?

But she doesn’t, so she’s not. Do you know what I’m trying to say??
