Why play a game that we could quite possibly lose starting the season 0-1 and then be essentially out of the race?


See 2007. If we would not have played and beaten Va Tech, they may have been playing for the NC. You need to schedule these type of opponents. Darron Thomas could blow out his acl during spring practice and then Oregon would be screwed. shite happens. To be the best you have to beat the best.

Why is the Oregon game a mistake? Yes, LSU already has a tough schedule, but Oregon proving this yr that they don't need to play anyone to reach the championship game. Who would a loss hurt worse? Oregon has more to lose. If they lose, they're done for the yr. If LSU loses, they still have enough difficult games to get back to the top. Since when did LSU fans get scared of playing top teams?
