Bottom line I can admit it’s a hypothetical discussion and I have an opinion... you know reality?


You can’t do that, everything you’ve claimed you’ve also stamped as irrefutable fact and absolute. You’ve done this about a game that never took place... not only is that contrary to reality but also delusional.

So you’re saying because team 1with offense x and personnel y had success z against Lsu, team 2 with offense x and personnel y will also have success z against Lsu. While also saying you’re not using transitive logic.

Words have meaning dude. Learn some of them.

Right. It’s acceptable for you to use transitive logic, just not anybody else.

Name calling where?

You mean like you saying I was crediting Jefferson with 44ppg?

Where?

Should I bring up the Oklahoma state bowl game for a 5th time?

What about the outcome of games against the #3 and #16 ranked teams in the country where Jefferson performed poorly? Think you’ll remember to address those next time?

You can also have a hypothetical discussion about Lsu losing to an fcs team that year, or an opinion that the sky is green. Neither are valid, both are wrong, all are stupid.

It is a fact and irrefutable that oklahoma st had a bad run defense.

It is a fact and irrefutable that a much better run defense than oklahoma st wore down in the second half against Lsu and was unable to stop them.

It is a fact and irrefutable that the West Virginia game you are concerned with was still a blowout with Lsu allowing 21 points.

It is a fact and irrefutable that Lsu was able to beat highly ranked teams with Jefferson playing very poorly at quarterback.

It is not a fact and completely refutable that Jefferson being a terrible quarterback was a hindrance to Lsu against any team not named Alabama. See games against Arkansas and Georgia.

It is not a fact and completely refutable that Lsu with Jefferson at qb was susceptible to any top 10 team that season. See above.

It is not a fact and completely refutable that oklahoma st would’ve been able to stop lsu’s Run game after a month to prepare. See their bowl game statistics that year that I’ve now brought up 6 times and you continue to ignore.

Lsu also didn’t play McNeese that year. I am 100% positive I know how that potential game wouldve turned out.

Now seems like a good time to remind you that your original point on this topic was that “Oklahoma State probly beats us with jordan Jefferson at QB in that title game.”

To avoid 2 SEC teams in the final four, which would negate an all SEC Championship of course.

That's been the hidden agenda for the last 2 weeks and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

LSU loses and they're out. The committee has their talking points prepared.

It's about $$$. Need a team west of the Mississippi to gain viewers.

LSU fans freaked out and claimed Alabama shouldn’t have gotten in to the NC.

People caught on and agreed and figured a committee would hold teams out that DIDNT WIN THEIR DIVISION. Because you 100% can’t be a top 4 team if you have the #1 team in your division, naturally.

And here we are.

Nah, I'll help you out here. The rest of the conferences, the media, major investors, corporations, etc. were PISSED that they were missing out on money because two SEC teams were in a nationally televised championship game.
