What that indicates to me is that LSU was pushing it more than those teams because it was a big matchup.


Or they did not give a shite about this game so they did not condition hard on their month off. And I would like to see where they ran 100+ plays on other teams because that is rare. Link?

but I can say that LSU most definitely did not "look flat" in the Peach Bowl this year. Their players flew around the field, laid the wood, talked trash, got in fights, and ran themselves until they were literally too exhausted to play any more.


LSU plays like that every game so how do you know when LSU looks flat. I can tell you they were not nearly as emotionally as fired up for this game as others. Plain and simple.

I also don't think LSU's expectations are the same as the rest of the SEC's. LSU, Alabama, and Florida may feel that way, but none of the others do, nor can they.


UGA and your enemies in South Carolina have national championship aspirations every year! UGA almost made it this year. South Carolina tries to peak around the corner, but can't get there. They are not far off though! You sound like a jealous ACC fan that hasn't had a championship contender in a long time!!!!

Off the top of my head I'd guess that we ran 100 plays vs. NCSU this year, and against Maryland and Auburn last year. Don't have a link for you, I don't know where that stat is kept, it's just something i hear from week to week after games.

Sure they weren't as "emotionally fired up" as they were for, say, the Alabama game. I get that. All I'm saying is that it's disingenuous to claim that they didn't try.

Haha, that's just plain not true, unless by "aspirations" you mean they'd like to win it like everyone else. UGA has kept a coach for 13 years or so who hasn't even played in the title game. SCar had rings made commemorating 11 wins when they didn't so much as win their division. If those programs truly expected to win the title every year, neither of those things would have happened.

I am a Clemson fan, not an LSU fan. I am jealous that Clemson hasn't been a contender in a long time, I'll give you that. I couldn't care less what the rest of the ACC does or does not do.
