resting starters in terms of not risking injury

and yes, i know the SEC title is at stake and les wont rest anyone, but you get the point

As Herbie said...to the players, they want to win the SEC Championship and get the ring.

As Miles said, we will go to Atlanta to win.

Miles rest the starters? Only late in the game after victory has been secured.

No, we want the SEC championship. I can see Les going for the kill early though so we can start pulling players once the win seems secured.

would be a different story if the NC game was played Dec. 10. Your analogy doesn't hold water.

this x1000.

I suspect anyone who is saying to possibly rest starters and that this game Saturday "doesn't matter" is younger than 20 years old.

LSU has a chance to win an SEC title.

Bama doesn't get the privilege to play for that.

play it like a normal game. our season will be tainted without an SEC title to go with it.

the kids want to play, you know that.

5-6 weeks or so to heal any injuries.

I don't know about you, but an SEC championship is nothing to scoff at. We haven't had one since 07.

the fact is walt, the BCS was supposed to make every game matter in terms of winning the national title

the SEC champ game does not matter in terms of winning the national title

the NUMBER ONE thing the BCS advocates is complete horseshite now...thats the point of this thread

LSU is in the exact same situation as a 15-0 NFL team that has everything wrapped up...that was supposed to be the thing that makes the BCS superior to a playoff
