The time has come.
Imbalanced, arbitrary football schedules, unfavorable bowl politics and a conference office that frequently indicates it is ignoring LSU’s concerns and needs have led the school and its athletic program to this point:
It is time to consider seceding from the Southeastern Conference.
LSU is a charter member of the SEC dating to 1933, but that doesn’t mean it has to stay there forever. Not if there are other, appealing options out there.
Where could LSU go? With the Big East dissolving, the ACC in flux, the Big Ten and Pac-12 too far away and independent status not a viable option for scheduling and economic reasons, LSU’s only real option would be to join the Big 12. It’s the conference closest to LSU in terms of physical location and philosophy.
Here are five reasons why there’s no better time for LSU to leave the SEC:

Does Scott Rabalais read the rant because I know I have read his points before?

I mean I get it. But all of this seems to be a huge overreaction to recent Alabama success.
Tennessee hasnt always been terrible
Bama hasnt always gotten the better schedules
its just the way things are right now.

Good God that shite is retarded.

Retarded.
We're going to leave the strongest conference and we're one of the strongest teams within that conference. Ok.....
Huh? How about putting the Big 12 teams in the SEC? That would fix that preseason ranking OU gets year in and year out. Texas? haha
Gotta love local news.

Legit article but the money is way too good to ever leave. Lsu needs to rally other schools to the cause of getting the PAC 12 model for rotating those that want to be rotated.

What a bunch of fricking nonsense.

Dumb article and dumb reasoning to leave.
He is acting like the SEC is out to frick LSU on purpose. Yeah, right.
The bowl alignment this year just didn't favor LSU when looking at the bigger picture which is the whole conference. I like the bowl matchups the SEC has overall.. Nut up and quit whining.

I don't want to see us leave the SEC, but I do want our administration to do whatever they have to do to get LSU a fair shake.

I doubt Rabalais actually thinks LSU needs to leave LSU.
An extreme article like this is probably meant to just stir the pot and lead to discussion about how fricked up the SEC is. Not too effective publishing this kind of article on Christmas day though. It isn't going to get much twitter love or anything from the national CFB media

LSU was one game away from being the most dominant team in college football last year, and we had a very tough schedule last year, lined up, and played great. Don't be scared of the competition.

Scott must live in a closet. Sure LSU has some issues with the SEC. However if he thinks the big twelve is better just ask aTm. Tx runs that conference for Tx's best interest only. Tx keeps the lions share of revenue and has a huge one sided tv deal with ESPN.
LSU gets disrespected by the SEC occasionally, but Tx would regularly sodomize us.
