Add in that we move the SEC offices to Memphis or Nashville and I am with you. Also rotate the championship game between Nashville, Atlanta, NOLA, Tampa and Houston

Why not, it is about LSU not the SEC. If the SEC is going to be in the tank for selected schools, then maybe LSU should look for a new home.

ACC, not Big 12.

Just don't think I could imagine LSU not being in the SEC. Plus I absolutely can't stand the brand of football the Big 12 has become - I can barely watch their games.

really?? I think they're entertaining as well.
Not necessarily the ones where there's NO defense played at all, but I love wide open offense and a lot of scoring.

Neither does the Super Bowl, but the system is in place and is generally fair.
Besides, it's all cyclical. For years, the East was much stronger than the West. Now it's flipped. For a couple years, Missouri was good, So. Carolina was good, even Vandy was decent. Not anymore. Tennessee was very good for awhile, won a NC, then went into the shitter, and now are decent. Florida was dominant, then terrible, and now decent.
Auburn won the NC and went to another NC game. Now they're not good. Bama was mediocre for many years before Saban got there.
It all naturally rotates. You can't force extreme change just because you don't like the results for a couple years.

Leaving the SEC is like states saying they want to leave the U.S. Bad idea.

I think, hypothetically of course, that you are bored and are wasting everyone's time.

LSU was a founding member of the SEC and has been in the conference for 84 years.
Does any rational person think we're leaving the conference because of a scheduling screw up by the SEC commissioner for one game (a game which, by the way, we're now playing at home)?
Talk about irrational reactions!!
Not you Schooter, I'm referring the other Rantards.

Google "SEC revenue".
Do the same for the Big 10, Big12, PAC 12, & ACC.
I want what is best for LSU and Louisiana, so no I'm not open to leaving.
These stupid threads stop if LSU goes to the Championship.

The only way LSU would leave the "SEC" is if the NCAA went to 4 16-team mega-conferences and they changed the name.

Only if they move their conference offices are within state of Louisiana.

Leaving the SEC would be the stupidest decision imaginable. Going to the Big XII instead of the ACC would somehow be even dumber.

FFS man read my stuff again.
There is nothing to agree or disagree because I'm not arguing that lsu should leave the SEC. I'm not arguing that lsu should stay in the SEC. I fricking spelled this out, floated a hypothetical and asked for open opinions.

atltiger6487, have you ever been to Waco, Fort Worth, Morgan Town, Lubbock, Norman? Wanna be dominated politically by UT? etc etc?? They make StarkVegas look like a real city.

Hard to say. Leaving the SEC would be like a really bad divorce, but it is hard not to conclude that the field is heavily tilted toward Tuscaloosa and probably to a lesser degree Gainesville/Auburn. It might make sense if LSU convinced other schools to make a switch as well.
UT is to the Big 12 as 'Bama is to SEC. It is not fair. Maybe a conference of schools from both the not so Big 12 and SEC as some on this board have already suggested. The idea may be to put leverage on the current system to become 100% even-handed.
That would start with moving SEC HQ out of Alabama and getting rid of anyone being head of officiating on a permanent basis. Maybe that job could rotate on a two year cycle, the person being picked by the SEC members. Just a thought.
The out and out lies promulgated by Sankey and the MSM should remove any doubt about malignant bias in the SEC.
BTW, does anyone know what Booger or Marcus have said about this 'affair'?

not open at all
Let's be honest, LSU would not be where it is with it's football and other sports programs without SEC money. That's not even considering the recruiting benefits, playoff/rankings considerations, etc.
This does not mean we, both the school and the fanbase, should or would stop fighting (or bitching about) anything we consider bias or injustice. We reserve the right to fix a broken system; we should not abandon the system.
