You think so by your name dipshit. You looking for validation?

Why yes; If you'd bothered to read the OP, you'd see that i'm seeking to validate whether LSU has become looked at as a tier 2 type of program by the national media.

It has nothing to do with recruiting. I understand we've lost some significant games in the previous years. LSU was robbed of an easy W so we'd be 8-4 if UF hadn't pussied out of the first game.

My point is that an 8-4 Utah is ranked ahead of us... fricking Utah. An 8-4 Auburn is 7 spots ahead of us. We are 1 spot ahead of a terrible 8-4 Tennessee team. What about the juggernauts of Navy, Colorado, and Western Michigan? I understand their records are better, but do you really believe any of those teams would stay within 30 points of LSU? That's what I mean by disrespect.
