theprofessor Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I don't think I am the only one doubting the strength and OOC schedule OSU played. Take a look at LSU's OOC schedule ... outside of playing VTech very early in the season their OOC schedule is super weak. IMO, playing that weak of a schedule and having two losses they shouldn't be in the NC game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerbraves Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 (edited) Take a look at LSU's OOC schedule ... outside of playing VTech very early in the season their OOC schedule is super weak. IMO, playing that weak of a schedule and having two losses they shouldn't be in the NC game. This should tell you how bad the University of Washington football season went this season. I went to their website figuring they must of had a tough outer conference schedule for you to keep bringing up LSU's and this is no chit. The University of Washington official athletic website has already taken down this year's 2007 schedule and results and replaced it with 2008. Since they won't tell me . What was the Huskies final record this season? If you haven't caught on yet, Washington is quickly becoming known as one of those rent a win teams for schools like Hawaii and BYU.

Which would be a great argument if absolutely anyone could point to having a stronger OOC schedule than LSU. Dude, we went through this before and you failed to do so then. Why do you keep bringing this up? Just name one school in the running for the NC game with a stronger OOC schedule than LSU. Just one. And when you do. Kindly explain why it's stronger.

GWPFFL BrianW Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I don't know how anyone can argue that LSU doesn't belong. I mean I think they've been over-hyped all year long, but LSU won the SEC, and in any year, that warrants some sort of discussion. Georgia: Wasn't even good enough to win their division, let alone their conference.Next. USC: Probably the best team, but losing to Stanford at home as a 41 point favorite, takes any school out of the mix. Kansas: See Georgia Va Tech: Got destroyed by said LSU team. Mizz: Had their chance, and blew it, lost to Oklahoma twice, and weren't conference champions, which IMO is more important than anything. OU: Maybe the only team before the bowl games that might have an equal claim. They won their title, and their 2 losses are pretty much equivalent to LSU's 2 losses, but again, LSU has the non conference win to trump them here. However... you can no longer take Oklahoma seriously due to the loss to West Virginia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to be an LSU jock-sniffer to realize that they've got just as much right to be in the NC game as anyone. Not because they're great, because I really don't think they are. Quite simply because their resume is at least as good as anyone else's. End of story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RightWing Express Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Wow, not sure if I'd qualify all time bowl records as "very,very small sampling" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerbraves Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Wow, not sure if I'd qualify all time bowl records as "very,very small sampling" Guess a decade is too small. LSU earns second title in 10-year history of BCS while the SEC earns it's 4th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RightWing Express Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 One glaring ommission from your list of contenders... West Virginia. After watching every minute of every bowl game it was clear that they were the best team playing. They would have destroyed either of those teams last night. OSU outgained LSU all night but couldn't stop shooting themselves in the foot. LSU was opportunistic and did what they needed to do to win. Neither one could have played with WVU. I'm not a big fan of the A beat B and B beat C logic but LSU did choke against Arkansas who was routed by that same Mizzou team that you mentioned.

Kinda like WVU choked against Pittsburgh, who wasn't even in a bowl game (i.e. losing record) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
