Most of these "fans" probably had parents that never allowed them to feel the pain of failure and gave them a trophy and pat on the back even when they lost.

You think? Sounds good. I know what I posted is a fact.

How’s about losing 3 conference games and none of those teams made the playoff?

A committe of humans is bias. Giving auto bids, no matter the quality of team, is bias. Diversity is our strength.

Go look at the sagarins rankings. Committee isn't off much, just clemson at 18 and boise at 30 are the outliers. Takes into account schedule difficulty and how you perform in wins and losses. Not bias at all. Bama and ole miss is in, scar misses by 1 at 13. Take the human element out. 0 opinion selects best 12 teams by their resume for body of a season.
Lsu is at 17, cause it actually cares we beat 2 top 15 teams, which very schools have.

Orgeron coached a stacked Alabama this year and left them? Sorry, Im still wondering what East Ascension has to do with any of this.

3 SEC teams made it in.

it’s still hard to win in the SEC and the committee didn’t give us any benefit of the doubt

With Dellinger back they don’t give up 7 drive killing sacks.

Sly Croom didn't have anybody in place to step up and play at an SEC level after Dellinger went down. Why not?

You have to dominate one of three areas to compete

1: high school recruiting
2: the transfer portal
3: roster development

LSU has been good in two of the three, bad in one and it’s reflected in their wins and losses

To change the result they need to change the formula. I don’t care which one but you have to be elite somewhere in the program and they haven’t been elite since 2019.

Again, sos isn't considered for 19-25. Go look at Sagarins ranking bcs used to use, not a human committee. We're at 17. It considers who you beat, who you lose to, and margin of those games. Not all 2 loss ranked, all 3 loss ranked, all 4 loss ranked.



You are wasting your time. These guys have an agenda. I can't stand BK, but I also realize we had a brutal schedule, I read somewhere where we were 8th in schedule toughness. There are actually people out here praising Boise, Ariz State, SMU, and even Indiana, when none of them had a win over a top 25 team. Hell, in the case of SMU, their best win was 7-5 Pitt. Yet, there are some of our supposed fans saying that we couldn't beat any of those teams....lol

Because Heard didn’t want to wait a year to take over at LT and Adams went down for the year. Add in Frazier also getting injured during the game and that’s a lot more depth on the OL than it’s realistic to expect in today’s game.

If it is so much easier now, why did the SEC only get 3 teams in? Why isn't Alabama in if it is so much easier now?

The bigger and stronger the SEC gets, the harder it will be to make the playoffs.

Texas lucked out with their easy schedule. People think the SEC was going to get 5 or 6 teams in the playoffs at the beginning of the season. That's not happening.

The SEC will get 3 to 4 teams in every season at best. Remember, it is not the 12 best teams. The committee has to place these other teams that have no chance of winning.
