said that Alabama should be #4 because they would be a favorite in Vegas over everyone except possibly the top 3 teams.
Well shite. Why even bother playing games? Let’s just get a list of the top 4 teams from Vegas and start the playoffs now. The entitlement is breathtaking.

And still no need to actually play the games. Would certainly cut down on concussions, rolled ankles and blown knees, would it not?

You come across as far more scared of possibly playing #4 Alabama in the Peach Bowl semis than you do concerned with "justice" or whatever.

Yeah, the betting public is so savy. That's why they fleece Vegas all the time. 
Of course Bama would be favorites, because the public is dumbos and only knows brand names.
Cowherd was right about one thing once upon a time...he said, even when USC was mediocre they were always bet on heavily by the public as favorites because that's a brand the public knew.
Even though USC was notorious for not covering the spread until Carroll came along.

Or maybe... and try to wrap your little peon brain around this one... I find it ludicrous to award playoff spots based on nothing more than Las Vegas betting odds.

Hold on Desert King that’s just one dudes opinion on espn. I’m not insulting you DK I just gotta take umbrage with you painting our entire fan base with an “entitlement” broad brush. I don’t agree with that espn guys assessment because I, like you, want the regular season to mean something. I definitely don’t feel Bama should be in the top four unless a bunch of upsets and crazy crap starts happening.
ETA: Also, I’m sure as hell not assuming Bama will beat State and Auburn. Playing in Jordan Hare hasn’t ever been easy for us regardless of how good AU is or isn’t.

And they should. If Bama wins out they're one of the 4 best teams in the country. Just because LSU is scared to play them again doesn't mean they should be shut out.

This is reality. Anyone trying to convince themselves we wouldn't steamroll the PAC12 as if that means something is just lying to themselves out of fear.

Well moron you might want to discern the actual LSU football team from the fan base. The team doesn’t give a shite but the fans are sick of one team getting a mulligan over and over. Me personally, I think this sure isn’t 2011 and I believe we can hang 60 on that defense.

It's not a mulligan if Alabama is actually one of the top 2 or top 4 teams in the nation.

The "mulligan" never effected you anyway after we broke you for 8 long years in 2011. And you're not home yet bubba.

Unless somehow Bama becomes one of the top 4 most deserving teams in the nation, a mulligan is exactly what it would be.

Best. Of which we are one, without a doubt.

Best.

Whine to them, not me. Just admit you're scared. 
Posted on 11/13/19 at 7:16 am to EarlyCuyler3
Bruh, LSU clownstomped you in your own stadium, definitely not scared. It's just bullshite that you get the benefit of the doubt consistently. You lost, at home, to a team that is going to be in the playoff. You've proven you weren't better than that team. Let another team attempt to prove that they are.

You won by 5 points after having a 20 point lead at halftime.
That isn't stomping anything and if you guys weren't so terrified of the prospects of facing Alabama again you woulf be eager to "clown stomp" us again since it was so easy the first time.
