Grandstanding. The LSU and UL systems are faced with the very real possibility of shuttering colleges which never should have existed, but good luck telling La Congressman Bumblefrick that the college in his hometown of bumfrickegypt, population 73 people and a hundred cows, is going to be closed because it's a financial drain.

Get real Georgia, NOBODY in the SEC can brag on education except maybe Vanderbilt, so get real with that. One SEC college has something better than the other and vice versa, so get the fricking real!!!!!!
