Of those only Paul won a national title for yall. Heck Bear Bryant coached at A&M and we don't pretend he turned us into a powerhouse.

Wha...?
Is this not the height of Tiger football (since 2000)? Am I not accurate on that point?
quote:
The year I graduated, 1990, LSU was ranked 12th all-time in win percent (A&M was 37th) and had winning records versus all SEC schools except Alabama and Tennessee
That means jack shite. I could quote our winning percentage vs Baylor and TCU all day and yet 90% of the forum would say they have better football programs right now. All time win percents have teams like Yale at the top.
What matters is that in 1990 LSU had ONE fricking recognized national title, and ONE fricking Heisman winner. That was all the national hardware that was in the trophy case, which was the exact same amount of national hardware a 1990 A&M had.

Im not reading this whole thread, so why don't you just give me a high level overview (3-4 sentences) of what you're trying to argue, and then I'll explain to you why you're wrong.

Circa 1990 LSU had been to 16 major bowl games (Rose, Cotton, Sugar, Orange) to A&M's 8.
Circa 1990 LSU had finished in the Top 10 on 15 occasions to A&M's 7.
Yeah, very equal programs

Bernie Moore won two, and Edgar Wingard won one, I just didn't list him.

IO don't know Jack, but if you wouldn't take it out of context, you would see that I'm referring to the fact that I was aware that LSU had a prominent football history prior to Saban getting to LSU.
