I really can't tell anymore. The trolls used to be obvious because they were so over the top, but now the morons have caught up.

Seriously though, if anyone still believes in a Saints bias against LSU, can we just put that to bed now?

You can find every Saints pick going back to 1967 (which, for you bandwagoners, was the year the Saints were founded) on Pro Football Reference ( LINK)

Out of 538 draft picks, the Saints have drafted 9 players from LSU. That may seem like a low number, but the most tapped school by the Saints is a tie between USC and Nebraska with 17. You may think that that is a big difference because it is almost double, but the 9 from LSU is 2% of total drafted and the 17 from USC/Nebraska is 3% of total drafted. You don't have to have a degree in Statistics (but luckily for you, I do) to realize that that is a very small difference in %. Statistically speaking, that is an insignificant difference. Meaning that statistically speaking, there is no difference between the amount of players drafted from LSU than any other school. The Saints have historically done a great job of drafting evenly from every school.
