I’m not a huge believer in the anti LSU bias from the SEC

But man. They’re making it hard to dismiss completely. The official IG page for the SEC network just posted the award winners from the SEC. Conveniently leaving out the Butkus Award winner.....

Strange thing to do.

Now that I look, they haven’t posted about it all.

I thought that at first, but they posted other award winners before tonight.

You mean the one that has 4 of the 6 players shown being from Alabama?

That one as well as the SEC POY. If that was all that had been posted, that would be different. To have no recognition of the Butkus Award is strange at best and a clear display of bias at worst. You honestly think is Moses won they wouldn’t have posted something?

Listen the SEC is LSU. It is 14 schools. No more, no less. So if you are unhappy with anything SEC then call LSU and demand an accounting for their inaction or whatever. That's the whole ridiculous thing about SEC misunderstanding. LSU and 13 other schools make the rules, judge and carry out the games, then reward the winners and divide up the profits. If you are not happy that means you are unhappy with LSU.

You’re saying LSU doesn’t advocate on behalf of Devin White and our athletes to the SEC? How deep does this rabbit hole go!?

There you go again. The two are not separate entities. Call on LSU and complain about whatever it is that you are unhappy about. LSU is the SEC and the SEC is LSU. You like many others think that there is "the SEC" and then there is LSU. Nope LSU makes the rules, executes whatever affairs are in play and follows up with rewards. On a shared basis with 13 others in a club.

I think you need another drink and to read this thread top to bottom one more time.

Maybe smoke some of that dope the kids are partaking in. Or CBT if you’re hip.

I mentioned this in a few other threads. Although possibly far-fetched, I see this kind of omission as a sign of LSU being somewhat blackballed. The #freeDevinWhite exposure culminating in Carville going in dry on Gameday publicly exposed the obvious systemic bias of the conference which some in the media agreed with. I’m certain the conference powers that be, primarily BAMA grads, weren’t too happy.

Sankey's comments today basically made every non-SEC fan cheer against LSU vs UCF.

Yeah, I saw that.

It's such a bush-league move by a bush-league commissioner. The SEC admin seems petty and arrogant.
