Walker in 1980's SEC which had fallen on hard times outside of Alabama


So how did LSU play in a Sugar and an Orange Bowl if the SEC sucked so bad?

LSU in the 80s was a roller coaster, Charlie Mac retired at the end of the '79 season. By '88 LSU had 4 different head coaches and were about to hire a 5th (Hallman in '91).

In that span LSU would go to the Sugar Bowl (twice), and the Orange Bowl faced Nebraska all three times. They would also finish 5th in the nation after a Gator Bowl win, & the following year would win the the SEC.
However in '80, '81, '83, and '89 they wouldn't go to a bowl game.
