re: Why do so many LSU fans want Auburn to lose?

Auburn represents what is wrong with college athletics. If you root for Auburn you are indirectly supporting a bunch of classless, law breaking, "yeah we did it, but prove it", jokes. Auburn doesn't deserve to be in the position they're in. They paid a player to achieve their"success".

SEC or not I hope they get what is coming to them. People in the SEC should be hoping they get their arse kicked. Auburn is a disgrace to the SEC.


Oh, to the Auburn fans that this will piss off...

OK - for the gazillionth time I will ask - What direct good does it do for LSU if Auburn (or any team that LSU recruits against) wins.

You had better believe that LSU uses both crystal balls when recruiting against Auburn, Alabama, Florida, etc.

Do you not think that they would do the same?

How does it help LSU to win a game or score 1 more point if the talking heads agree that the SEC is the best conference?

I did not pull for Bama last year, but I like Auburn and Georgia, and Miss. State and even Tennessee sometimes. I always pull for Vanderbilt and Kentucky, even S. Carolina. I am an SEC fan, just don't like Bama since the seventies.

They are fricking cheating, man.

I am pulling for Auburn to win. they are the better of two imo and plus they represent the SEC. Auburn will not make end roads in Louisiana regardless if they win or lose.

There are only 3 teams that I perpetually dislike- Auburn, Miami and Fla State. I will never forgive Auburn's intentional chop-block by Chaz Ramsey on Dorsey.

Here is the SEC bylaw pertinent to your question:

“If at any time before or after matriculation in a member institution a student-athlete or any member of his/her family receives or agrees to receive, directly or indirectly, any aid or assistance beyond or in addition to that permitted by the Bylaws of this Conference (except such aid or assistance as such student-athlete may receive from those persons on whom the student is naturally or legally dependent for support), such student-athlete shall be ineligible for competition in any intercollegiate sport within the Conference for the remainder of his/her college career.”

Cecil Newton has admitted that he put a price on his son's head to attend MSU. That implicitly infers an agreement to receive the funds he stipulated. Any third-grader could easily understand the gravity of this infraction and the violation of the bylaw, and yet the SEC honchos have pretended it to not be applicable to the Newtons and one can only assume that such pretense is the case due to reasons of tremendous financial gain to the league.

It is sad to watch the SEC sacrifice its own stated principles to its greed and avarice.

Of course, the truth will eventually come out as to what did transpire to secure Cam Newton's presence at Auburn, and when that does it will only reflect worse on the SEC if Auburn wins the National Championship Game.

But, more simply put, people often are averse to seeing self-admitted cheaters win.
