To be fair, even if it was some random USC fan, someone with ESPN had to put that quote on the front page.


That's because they know people like you will get all pissy, share the news, and then even more people will go check out there site.

Listen, ESPN doesn't hate you. They are using you. And it's working.

I don't think USC cares how good their conference is.

Their team owns not only the conference, but a lot of the nation.

no really, LSU should schedule home and home with some of these major programs and go to their home first and kick the living daylights out of them, that's what USC does, that's one of the reasons they get so much respect. It might take awhile to get the home game in TS, like Va. Tech, but eventually they'll have to own up to a arse whipping.

((((yawn))))

Is that the best you can do? It's been almost a year.

Yes, we lost to Stanford. Yes, the SEC is the best conference in CF. What revelations you have bestowed upon us! Now you can suck your thumb in peace.

Ah, I don't know. LSU is such a small market as compared to USC, Notre Dame or Ohio State. We don't pull near the numbers in those polls that the above mentioned schools do simply based on the fact that we don't have the numbers of fans.

they have the fanbase across America, but like I mentioned earlier, they should go to these other teams home stadiums first and beat them, otherwise ESPN is gonna keep dogging them like this season with the 4 creampuffs on the schedule.

There needs to be some rule that Top 10 programs shouldn't be able to schedule junk like this...

I understand why K-State started this crap...they were horrible and loaded up on Bowl subdivision teams to get some wins and confidence.

LSU doesn't need to do this...they've arrived and should try and get some name teams.

All the big programs should be scheduling each other to create inter-sectional rivalries. Like Notre Dame used to play Miami.

All local second-tier sister schools should be banned...no Tulane in the South, no Idaho in the West, no North Texas, Troy, or San Diego St.

uhhhhh.....you do realize that two of the four schools you mentioned are IN Florida, right? And GA and LA are not exactly on the other side of the country.


The challange is the team you play, not how far you travel to play them. Your stupidity is amazing.

Wow, you really are dumb. I was responding to what you said. Which is, let me refresh you,

Florida plays Georgia, LSU, Florida St., and Miami, but according to this idot, they are afraid to travel.


Your stupidity is stupefying.

This is what happens when a reporter doesn't look past what the existing scedules are. LSU has made numerous attempts to do just what the whole country is doing. Which is of the 3 non-conference games, one vs. a national opponent, and the other two as glorified practices.

Don't let this douch bag's lack of work result in any bullsh*& for any of us. People just don't want to play us.

We go play in the swamp
They come play in death valley
We play at Jordan Hare
We play between the hedges
We play on Rocky Top
We make plenty of tough road trips year in and year out
Who else does that?....only The SEC

Not anymore, that was a season ago. At the time, yes. But nothing will hurt as bad as that texas game.

didn't i just explain this yesterday???

LSU PLAYS AS MANY OR MORE TOP RANKED OPPONENTS AS USC, OHIO STATE OR OKLAHOMA. THE FACT IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO SCHEDULE AN OUT OF CONFERENCE TEAM IN ORDER TO HAVE TWO GAMES AGAINST TOP TEN OPPONENTS EVERY YEAR.


this only talks about our regular season schedule, and doesn't include the fact that in order to play in the NC game, we'd likely have to play another top ten opponent in the SEC Championship game.

what is most important is the OVERALL SCHEDULE that each team plays.

LSU's schedule is more difficult this season than last.

fans of USC and OSU who bash LSU's schedule are just using flawed logic to make their team's schedules look better.
