No one as it doesn't benefit LSU.

Never for the gumps, gay-tors, or faggies. Depends on who the others are playing. And if one of those three are playing OSU, I just don’t watch it at all.

Why root for another conference? Everyone outside of the SEC footprint hates the SEC! Yeah I agree that I won't root for most teams. I love Kirby bc I love great defense, but I won't root for UGA but I wouldn't be mad if they won it. I can't stand Tenner, and just want the SEC to be strong and if LSU isn't in it. Then why not?

Unfortunately, I think the odds are .000001% that any of those teams win it.

Understanding that the success of certain SEC teams hurts us in recruiting, I still pull for other SEC teams to win championships (if LSU is out).


If the SEC gets eiminated early, it could lead to fewer SEC teams in future playoffs - this hurts LSU.

I would rather we get 4 teams every year, than 2. A 9-3 LSU should get the nod over 10-2 SMU. If SMU, Boise State, and ASU make deep runs in the playoff, that hurts the SEC.

We need 3 out of the 4 semi-finalists to come from the SEC and for the committees to realize that a 10-2 team that has run the gauntlet of an SEC is better than an undefeated Mountain West schedule.

This is the fist time that those teams have been a part of the playoff. I want the discussion next year to be that we did not have enough SEC teams in the playoff and that we had too many Big 10 and ACC teams.

I don’t generally pull for other SEC schools unless they are playing some team the broadcasters kiss their arse and build that school up ( media darlings ). Hence Penn St, Oregon, Ohio St and Notre Dame as my last 4. I’ll always pull for an SEC team against those bastards. My order is

Boise St
Indiana
Arizona St
SMU
Clemson
Georgia
Tennessee
Texas
Penn St
Oregon
Ohio St
Notre Dame

I don't root for conference teams outside of LSU.

As a general rule, frick all of the other teams in the SEC.

The exception might be Vandy. I would be happy for them if they won something.
