You're not factoring our rise after we beat Auburn.

Troll away, but come Saturday, I suspect that you will be banned....Seriously, how hard will you take it if LSU were to beat Auburn on the road?

How many spots did we drop when we lost ? O should be similar

So because a team loses they're not "legit"? There are no dominant teams in CFB this year, for sure. But there's no shame in losing a close game to a quality team. Especially if it's your only loss on the year (still a possibility for Oregon).
legit meaning dominant undefeated team. I don't think you even watched that game last night. Oregon has major flaws including a terrible secondary and pass rush, a terrible OL, and a QB that has still not shown that he can win the big game. They almost lost to Washington State (possibly the second worse team in the PAC), and then lost to Arizona at home.
Legit means dominant. There is no 2010 Auburn 2011 LSU Alabama, 2013 FSU, etc. There is no team that you can look and say, they are going to be undefeated. People think it's Oklahoma, but Oklahoma has been looking pretty beatable the last couple of weeks, and TCU knocks them off tomorrow.

Agree. That won't happen. Likely you'll hear more about how the Wildcats were vastly under-rated.

If this happens I cant wait to watch this season unfold like it did in 2007.
It definitely doesn't look like there is a dominant team this year.

Yeah, I watched it...been in PDX for 18mos so I was actually at the game with a couple co-workers. And I wasn't surprised. Oline has been decimated by injuries, Dline is more like LSU's than they'd like and apparently, Mariotta is still dinged up from last year's WSU game (WSU almost beat Auburn last year...not sure what that even means) And speaking of Mariotta, beating KSU in the Fiesta his freshman year wasn't winning a big game?
But I agree that there are no dominant teams this year. If that is your criteria for legit, then I would say there are no legit teams. FSU blows, OU has holes, Auburn and Bama are meh. Hell, Notre freaking Dame is looking more and more like one of the final 4. The only think I know for sure (or give a flying shite about) is that LSU won't be in that final group. Beyond that, not sure I care that much about anyone else.

WSU exposed Oregon's weaknesses. Auburn's only real weakness early last year, was what direction they wanted to go on offense. Once that was figured out (LSU was their wakeup call), they went undefeated.
Oregon has OL injuries that forces them to play freshmen at several areas. Their supposedly preseason dominant secondary, is one of the worse in the FBS. They play a ton of offenses with high powered passing attacks, so they will be in shootouts nearly every game. With Stanford coming in, I don't see them winning that one at all.

I have watched 3 PAC 12 games recently, and while neither of their divisions is as good as the SEC West(which is likely the strongest division in the history of college football), the PAC 12 is very good top to bottom. They are clearly the 2nd best conference, and because the SEC East seems so mediocre, I don't think the overall conference gap is not nearly as wide as some of our retarded fans think.
I know it's hard for a lot our atrociously illogical, tiny-brained fans to comprehend, but not being the best does not equate to sucking. Nor does it even equate to being mediocre. By any standard, the PAC 12 this year is good, likely very good. Arizona beating Oregon actually points to that, though most of our imbeciles are likely not capable of fathoming that. UCLA, for example, has the right QB, coaching staff, athletes, and depth to compete with anybody. The would absolutely compete in the SEC. But they are dismissed routinely here because they struggled in the 1st 3rd of the season against some decent OOC teams. Just Iike every other team in the country so far this year as well, mind you.
I just hate the whole "if you didn't win the national championship you suck attitude. Or the if you don't play in the SEC, you can't possibly be deserving of a playoff berth. Forget for a second the hypocrisy of our tards claiming the end of the world if we---gasp, lose by 5 to a team they concede plays in the toughest conference and division in the nation, this whole "SEC or you suck" mantra is so unbecoming. LSU fans should be above it, for a few reasons, the biggest one being it's just fricking wrong. I love us. But we can be so goddamn stupid and embarrassing.

Yeah but if Oregon played in the SEC they would lose multiple games every year.

Enh Oregon isn't a terrible team by any stretch. But they are a team that has been wrecked by injuries and now the rest of their conference knows exactly what their weak points are. Their defense may get better the rest of the way; their offense is hosed unless they get some O-Linemen back. Mariota is on his way to becoming a human pinata.

Oklahoma didn't "nearly lose" that game. They were in control the entire second half.
That team is legit.

No offense, but what does this long winded tirade have to do with what I said?
Somebody said that they didn't understand what Oregon almost losing to WSU had to do with anything, then stated Auburn did the same last year.
I answered that by stating that when Auburn won, they had no flaws other than what was perceived. They were perceived to be a 3-9 team and held a high powered Leach offense to 24 points @ Washington State in game one. Marshall came in the fall and didn't start really practicing til 2 weeks before the game.
Oregon's OL was talked about in the offseason as being a strength, as well as their secondary. Washington State exposed that.
Seems like you are snapping at me for something somebody else said. What I said was that Oregon was exposed, same as TAMU last week, same as Ohio State, same as FSU, same as us, same as South Carolina, etc.
I also don't prescribe to the nonsense that the PAC is far behind the SEC, but there is not a division that holds a candle to the SEC West, and there hasn't been in a while.
