First of all I am not a big LSU fan i just dont want to see an overrated pac 10 team play in the NC game and get taken to the woodshed. This is an unbiased article written for Fox Sports that tells exactly why LSU if they run the table which they probably wont should be number 2. Its sad that in this article they say that the Auburn win was there best win. Doesnt Auburn have 5 losses.
Thats pathetic. But as scott says they have Pete Carrol; what a joke

While USC will probably be in New Orleans to face Oklahoma for the national title, everyone needs to realize how sticky this will get over the next few weeks. LSU, even after beating media favorite Eli Manning and Ole Miss in Oxford, still isn't getting the national respect the Trojans are, and no one's pointing out that an Oklahoma-USC national title game isn?t a guarantee if USC beats Oregon State. USC is a bit more complete right now than LSU and is more explosive on offense, but USC-as-number-two isn?t the slam-dunk that everyone is assuming it is if only because LSU has had more chances to prove how good it is. The strength-of-schedule would suggest otherwise, but USC?s slate is nowhere near as tough as LSU?s with the best Trojan win coming against Auburn. LSU did that as well. As far as those other great USC wins, they?ve come against Washington State, and UCLA. Whoopee. If LSU wins the SEC title, it?ll have beaten Georgia, Alabama at Alabama, Ole Miss at Ole Miss, Arkansas and then either Georgia or Tennessee in the championship. All of those games are tougher than anything USC has had to play since the Auburn game, and losses by Washington State and Oregon State this last weekend are going to kill the Trojans in the BCS formula. Does that mean USC is bad and doesn't deserve to play OU? Of course not. It's just important to recognize there's another team out there playing just as well and that the BCS, with a mind of its own, could change everyone's plans.


I am sure that idiot Scott will put somthing about USC in here about USC SOC well that is plumetting as I write this and how they are going to be a dynasty; isnt this USC highest ranking since 1986; USC is like Texas they are supposed to have all these athletes and top recruiting classes but they always end up getting beat by some piece of crap team sometime during the year; this year it was to a 6 loss CAL team. USC might want to win a NC during the last 2 decades before their fans make them the second coming to the best team ever.

:nono:

Well regardless of who matches up best with OU, just let the most deserving team get the chance. In my opinion & alot of others of late, if LSU runs the table, they deserve a shot. We already know how Scott is going to spin this. He will brag about their OOC schedule & how it isn't USC's fault these teams were down but god forbid you say the same thing about LSU. It is a double standard when it comes to him.
