If we hadn't played like crap against UF and managed to win, the strong schedule helps us. I like the stronger schedule. We just need to be better prepared than we were for the first half of the season. It's hard to go undefeated regardless of the schedule when you don't play well. I would rather lose to UF than UK.


As a season ticket holder, I agree with you and I would prefer to PAY for good games. As a fan of LSU football, I want a fair opportunity to make it to the NC game. Us playing UF & UGA vs. Bama playing UT and Mizzu isn't providing the same test for both teams. They like the "eyeball test" because your coach can drastically influence the results. Polls are all about hype and I too believed that Bama was the clear #1...until they played LSU & aTm.

It's comical to watch these inbread Gump's making excuses when LSU keeps getting the tougher schedule. If the scenario were reversed, they would absolutely be complaining. What sucks is that at the end of the season, it doesn't really matter that we played #1, #2, and #3. It's all about wins and losses...and a biased "eyeball test".

Only reason I am against the permanent opponent is because with the expansion, we will only play at tenn or at Georgia or at mizz once every 10 years. That's just dumb. It's like they aren't even in our conference anymore.

If bama and tenn want yo keep their permanent rivalry, then fine, keep it. But there is no reason whatsoever that the rest of the teams should have to do it too.
