Man, if LSU falls all way way to CFA after having Sugar hopes a week or so ago?


A few LSU posters on this board were adamant that LSU was so coveted by bowls that there was no way they would be behind A&M in bowl selection.

They were going to travel 45,000 strong, their AD was smartest guy ever, no bowl would pass up the opportunity to pick LSU, no way anyone picked A&M over LSU, blah blah blah...

They couldn't comprehend the thought a few weeks ago that it was liekly the Fiesta Bowl would select A&M over them.. but then Oregon lost and it bacame a moot point anyway.

Now they are about to see exactly how much the bowls like Texas A&M and how well we travel.

well... much of what they said was true... but it's tough to pick against the Heisman trophy winner (probable winner, anyway) and an excited fan base... otherwise, Capital One Bowl would have loved a Les Miles vs. Michigan match up.
