I disagree with you because you said "LA Tech would be favorites this year against us," and i just don't see how you can say this. Ask a La Tech fan if they think they could beat us and see what they say.


You honestly think it wouldn't be a good game??? You honestly think they wouldn't have a legitimate shot to beat us??? We almost lost to a Sun Belt team on a Saturday Night in Death Valley as the defending National Champions & lost to a 4 WIN Arkansas team missing its starting running back, and a few starting o-linemen & d-linemen. We also made Casey Dick look like an All-American. You're really ganna tell me that Tech has no shot???

Tech is a better team than Troy this year


Why do you say something that you have no way of proving

There is no way in hell we should have to come from behind to beat a former D-1AA team in our house at night. Tech


Couldn't agree with you more. We shouldn't have to but we did

My god...if Troy could almost do it...why wouldn't Tech do it??? Its like yall are choosing to dismiss the Troy game just becuase we won...that should never happen. If a Sun Belt team can almost beat us in our house...then a 2nd place WAC team could definetly pull the upset.

I guess we've been watching two different teams this year...we are not the same LSU as we were last year...people dismissed Troy & look what happened.

Let's see, LA Tech couldn't muster any points against Kansas' weak defense. They got blasted by 35 against Boise, they lost to freaking Hawaii, and even lost to Army. 4 of LSU's 5 losses came agaisnt top 20 teams. I honestly don't see how you can throw out a statement that La Tech has a better team based on what LSU and Tech have done so far this season.

YOURE AN IDIOT IF YOU THINK TECHS BETTER THAN US AND THIS IS NOT COMING FROM A COOLAIDE DRINKER.

We would beat Tech by 17.

I agree with this

Also, we should note that Troy is significantly better than Army which held Tech to 7 points. You could probably argue that Troy is also better than Hawaii.

No, we've been watching the same team.

I'm perfectly aware that we are not the same team as last year.

And i don't think anybody dismissed Troy. Anybody who follows CFB closely knows that they run a good spread O, and that spread O's have historically given us trouble

LSU sucks this year by SEC standards, but Tech hasn't done anything to warrant anyone saying they are the best team in the state.

We havent beat one good team this year...the teams we have beat are on the same level as the teams TECH has beat...we also lost to a team with a losing record...Auburn & USCe are not good teams, regardless of what they were ranked at the time.

Ok, I'd like for you to stack up LSU's wins/losses and Tech's wins/losses and tell me how you justify Tech having the better season.

bullshite....the entire LSU nation chalked it up as easy win before the game...hindsight is 20/20...we are the ONLY ones in the country giving Troy that much credit when the rest of the country got a great laugh out of it.

You do realize Troy spanked Oklahoma State last season and knocked off Mizzou a couple of years ago. Troy has done more in the last few years than La Tech can claim. I really want you to lay out your case in wins and losses why Tech is the better team this season. It's easy to make blanket statements, but it's a lot harder to sugercoat losses to teams like Army and Hawaii.

Don't be so sure about that. I knew we'd win, but given how we were performing up to that point i figured it wouldn't be an easy win.
