1. College Sports Polls, College Football Rankings, BCS Rankings

    It doesn't mean much I suppose, but it's an interesting read.

    Overview regarding Oregon & LSU:

    Oregon 5th most underrated team in the last 5 years. Avg Pre-Season ranking: 19 Post Season: 14.

  3. It wasn't that Oregon was underrated, but that their opponents were overrated. Vice versa for LSU.

  4. Don't let facts get in the way of your argument... :)
  5. Good one...
  6. So you're saying that the other teams you play in the SEC are overrated?

    There goes your argument that the SEC has 8 ranked teams in the pre-season poll, so you're the best conference.
  7. Tennessee was.
  8. He's saying that it isn't that LSU was overrated, but that LSU's opponents were underrated.
  9. LSU was way over rated in 08. Which makes me wonder why Bama is ranked so high this year, they remind me of the 08 LSU team. Lost alot, return alot of inexperience. Guess we will see.

    But, going backwards:

    LSU:
    2010 final ranking 8th
    2009 final ranking 17th
    2008 final ranking unranked
    2007 final ranking 1st
    2006 final ranking 3rd
    2005 final ranking 6th
    2004 final ranking 16th
    2003 final ranking 1st
    2002 final ranking unranked

    Oregon:
    2010 final ranking 3rd
    2009 final ranking 11th
    2008 final ranking 10th
    2007 final ranking 23rd
    2006 final ranking unranked
    2005 final ranking 12th
    2004 final ranking unranked
    2003 final ranking unranked
    2002 final ranking unranked

    Ducks seem to just keep getting better. LSU is all over the place, but play in a tougher conference and have 2 crystal balls to show off. As a matter of fact, LSU has more national championships in the last 10 years than the Ducks have conference championships.

    I can't wait for this fuggin game man.
