Usually I wouldn't pay any mind to this type of stuff but the article has some ironic match-ups:

1. TaxSlayer Bowl

LSU vs. Florida State

Dec. 30 Noon, ESPN
EverBank Field
Jacksonville, Florida

2. AutoZone Liberty Bowl

LSU vs. Texas

Dec. 30 12:30 p.m., ABC
Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium
Memphis, Tennessee

3.Franklin American Mortgage Music City Bowl

LSU vs. North Carolina State

Dec. 29 4:30 p.m., ESPN
Nissan Stadium
Nashville, Tennessee

1&2 are ironic for obvious reasons. but 3, is a little more interesting in that Syracuse's coach said that NC State was better than LSU after playing the teams in back-to-back weeks.

Honorable mention- in the article they predict we could play Purdue at two different bowls. It'd be fun to watch a transfer of theirs curb-stomp them in a bowl.

Non-ironic match-up that is in there is LSU VS Michigan State. I think that would be a great game.

We do. The big question is does Florida State win 6?

If you told me we’d be playing Florida State in a bowl game before the season started I would have sworn it would be a NY6 bowl. Crazy.

I hope we don't. Orgeron and Alleva need to go ASAP.

That's some real strong bowls right there for team that was supposed to be in the playoff according to the HC.

People would watch any of these for brand recognition alone, especially texas after the herman fiasco.

Would rather veat the brakes off florida state though

Bowling at this point is wishful thinking. But maybe...

I think by irony he means situationally good matchups. We have some extent of beef with all of these teams. NC state only because syracuse HC cant keep his mouth shut.

What games are left on the schedule that we win?

Probable wins: Ole Miss, Tennessee

Possible wins: Arkansas, A&M

We could win all of those games, or none, depending on what kind of team shows up from week to week.

the toughest to date would be aTm, but we hold the invisible daddy advantage over them.


If we beat the Barn Saturday, this board will turn upside down.

so damn stupid to wish your team harm simply to reinforce your ego.

I may not like them, but if they keep winning so be it...

Bring on Florida State.

Jimbo vs Coach O.


This would be the most interesting matchup of those possible bowl games.

be careful, you'll be accused of not being a "true LSU fan" if you ever root against LSU for any reason whatsoever.

Purple and gold goggles don't let in much light, apparently.

If you had told me before the season we'd be playing Florida St in the Gator Bowl (Taxslayer) I would've been shocked at how far FSU fell

For LSU this is about where I was anticipating we would be before the season started. Now I'd be beyond ecstatic for that matchup
