    Nope, that would be Meatchicken. No rematch, obvious try though. Points for taking the low fruit.

    Sounds like you are trying hard to be a big fish in a much smaller pond. Worked for Miami and Florida State for a while. Now it's kind of hard to tell them apart from the rest of the minnows. If you are going to be a bear, be a grizzly. Otherwise, you will have to settle for a Baylor.

    THIS IS VERY true..............if not for Oklahoma telling Texas they did not need to be in a Conf with them, the Big 12 would probably already have been sliced and diced too. Alabama is bad but Texas wrote the book on this kind of stuff.

    That 10-3 team was a good ball team. That 10-3 team was also 5-3 in conference play.

    This thread is perpetuating there is some conspiracy within the SEC offices where one team gets a better draw than the other. What you're doing is taking evidence clearly contrary to those conspiracy theories and disregarding that evidence.

    If you "absolutely" believe people in the SEC offices stop, think about how they can manage a schedule to favor one team over another, your belief is not only jaded it's irrational; bordering on one tainted by delusion.

    A mulligan is a chance to redo something, chief. LSU got nothing like that in 2007. LSU had 2 losses in triple overtime to conference teams. We ended up in the BCS game because LSU was the best 2-loss team in the country. Then we beat the #1 team in the country in the BCS game and won the chanpionship. No mulligans, no replayed games. None, zero, ziltch.

    Actually, what Les said was that LSU was the only undefeated team in regulation. Bama then enjoyed the same success last season, for they too ended up the only undefeated team in regulation. Mulligan is just cryptic for passing the eye test. For that alone was the only reason, either team, played for the NC. Party on.

    This has nothing to do with my comments to you earlier.

    So, you're accusing Mark Womack of intentionally setting the schedule to favor Alabama? His alma mater is only a convenient point you're using to support this conspiracy theory of yours.

    To think he'd risk his livelihood to change a schedule? It's irrational.

    Btw, I actually DO NOT agree with any notion of LSU leaving the SEC. I DO AGREE that the strength and weakness of teams and programs are cyclical. Things are probably never really gonna be "fair" until we get to a playoff. Even then, arguements will be made. However, there does seem to be an obvious bias in officiating towards Bama. Always has been. The SEC offices are in Alabama, and the SEC schedule has been heavily favoring Bama these past two years. These are FACTS.

    Beat the Gumps between the white lines and everything else should fall into place.
