We looked like shite winning



Yeah, I'd like the team to play better. But God help me, I hope I never get to the point where I treat wins the same as losses.

Which is something that they have no control over at this point. There's a possibility that an unranked or low ranked 8-5 Wisconsin team will play in the Rose Bowl. Several undeserving teams will play in "better" bowls than LSU, and several just as deserving will play in equal bowls. It's the way the system works.

Exactly. All you can do is try to win as many games as you can. 10-2 is a damn good record for and SEC program regardless of the season. The rest is up to voters and computers and media bias. The only way to get around any of that is to have a playoff. 10-2 should be good enough for an SEC team to get into a playoff system most years. I could understand bitching if LSU got into a playoff and stunk it up in the first game, but bitching about getting "selected" for a mid tier bowl is silly when you consider what this team went through to get to 10-2.
