This is the type of stupidity you get when you don’t look at context.



I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he was responding, in part, to a previous poster who said second in the division was pretty meaningless (it generally is unless it’s an indicator of an upward trajectory of a struggling program, I don’t think most see LSU as a struggling program). In any case, context is important. This year, if Bama finishes second in the West, they likely still get an invite to the playoff, particularly if Auburn wins the SEC championship game.

Second place in the West sounds better to recruits than last.



Do you honestly think a coach is gonna bring up finishing 2nd in division to a recruit?

I can hear him now, Patrick Surtain, in case you didn't know this I just wanted to let you know we didn't have a chance to win the west in 2017 but did finish 2nd thanks to Auburn

Actually it shows improvement. First time with 2 or less losses in SEC since 2012 and if we win out it will be first 10 win season since 2013. You build on success.

this is such a great quote, thanks for that … but Rickie Bobby’s dad later said he didn’t say that ? Stating, "I was high when I said that! That makes no sense at all! "First or last"! I mean, you could be second, third, fourth--hell, you could even be fifth!

This is probably the most accurate statement that has been posted on the rant in years!

We could also potentially finish 5th if A&M wins.

I'm with you, finish as high up the food chain as possible. If I remember correctly we were preseason picked 5th overall in the SEC and 3rd or 4th in the West.
