Don’t worry about Reese. He is impertinent

He has no weight with the committee. He’s just a gump with moderator gig on tv. Nobody pays attention to him. He has zero credibility. So stop worrying about what spews out of his piehole

Irrelevant, that's what he is.

We have all seen the media have more sway on society than we could ever imagine.
I agree that he has no stroke, but I also believe that social climate makes a difference in that room to decide the four teams who go to the playoffs, and his job is to host a show. Not sway public opinion.
We need to win the next two games and fight like hell to win the SEC Championship. If we do, we should be in. If we found a way to beat Georgia convincingly, it’s a no brainer.

Just an hour of propaganda. Almost sinful!

But he wasn’t wrong though.

What is he wrong about? You understand not everyone is just lockstep with LSU, come hell or highwater, right?
He calmly laid out a perfectly defensible argument for why it isn't obvious that LSU should go in front of Tennessee.
Damn, some of you are pathetic. Same ones constantly bitching about Danielson and McElroy.

If LSU wins out and beats UGA, winning a conference championship, that will mean something. Something TN can't claim. Also, if that comes to fruition and Ole Miss finishes strong, we would've beaten three top 10 teams. That's a huge deal.
Again, that's IF it happens.

With that being said, conference championships have to mean something. Not sure why you're saying that a conference championship would be meaningless. Even with our two losses. (Edit-implied that it would be meaningless and TN would simply stay put because of their win over us while we play an extra game and win a conference championship in the process. Again, that's IF that happens.)

Where did I mention them? FWIW I like McElroy. Not that that has any bearing on Rece Davis but since you brought it up.
Relax man. Geez.

quote:It's not meaningless - it would be a very close argument. It's actually super interesting just on its merits: a one loss, non-conference champ who beat the team in question vs a 2 loss conference champ who lost to them. There's no way to act is if one direction is CLEARLY the right way to go. If it does actually come to it, I hope they pick LSU. If they don't, my reaction won't be as if there was some massive injustice.

I agree. But that's not what Rece was talking about.
I'm referring to the Tennessee game. That and that alone was the foundation of his stance on the matter. In regards to that, he's wrong to be so certain about it.

Neither will I.
Part of Rece's job is to stir up crap. He seems to love doing exactly that.

I wouldn't put it past him. Like I said, part of his job is to stir up stuff.
I get the two losses doesn't help but a conference championship does. So there's no "right" answer but he didn't say that. He simply said the Tennessee game and the two losses, like you just said, is reason enough to keep Tennessee where they are and in saying that, he's incorrect. To be so certain about it. He wouldn't drop it. He did the same thing last week.
Anyway, enough about that. We'll all see what happens.

We are NUMBER SIX IN THE frickING NATION.
Let that sink in.
Can we just be happy?
Tennessee whipped us like a yard dog. Unless we absolutely dismember Georgia, Tennessee should be ahead of us.

quote:Yeah, he is wrong. Sorry, but if (huge 'if') we win out, we're in. Just as a 2L Auburn would have been, had they won the 2017 SECCG.
But he wasn’t wrong though.
People cite the 2016 2L PSU situation. In the 2016 scenario, PSU (7) beating Wisc (6) was not enough to displace any of the existing Top 4 (Bama(1), OSU(2), Clemson(3), Wash(4)).
This year, the Top 4 would be UGA(1), OSU/Mich winner(2), TCU(3), Tenn(4) with LSU #5. If #5 beats #1 in the final game, #5 will not remain #5, so someone in the Top 4 gets the boot. That would be UT. Just the way it is.
Of course the likelihood is UGA wins what is basically a home game, LSU is out, and UT is in.
IMO, the more interesting scenario is TCU losing, and UofM losing a freakishly close game in Columbus. Then we'd enter the SECG as UGA-1, OSU-2, UT-3, LSU-4/5, UofM-5/4. With an LSU win, do 3 SEC teams go? I don't see how a UofM team sitting at home jumps a UT team sitting at home.

He works for the company that played a big part in getting Bama their underserved appearance in the 2011 title game. The teams that make the playoffs are still decided by humans, so impertinent, impotent, imperfect Rece Davis spewing the same shite on each appearance on multiple shows is for a reason.
Of course, LSU still has to get to Atlanta without losing and then beating Georgia, an extremely tough task. For them to even be in this position is crazy enough… Brian Kelly is doing a tremendous job.
