Par for the course around here. Flame LSU fans and then act like you have no idea why you get attacked.

Great academics?

Compare your school or keep whining. I don't care which course you choose. I do hope your day is wonderful though.

THIS. They would probably be at the bottom of the list as a matter of fact.

Couldn't resist. Seems like every time someone boasts about having great academics they make a mistake like this. That low hanging fruit is hard to resist.

There is no comparison. Sorry. There is only one LSU.

I think state and carolina are similar....
Both aren't historical football schools but their current coach has them competing
Both have had previous success in baseball but this year sucked
this year, women's basketball was probably their best sport

Getting back on message, Vandy's SEC look-alike is obviously Sewanee (once an SEC school, always an SEC school). Academically, culturally, aesthetically, and unfortunately athletically similar, although Vandy can be good at times. And if the liberal element was ever tossed from the University, Vandy could be competitive in all sports.
PS
Go Lady Dores Tennis team who will play for the National title.

LSU cancelled the series with two games remaining after the 1995 game in College Station.
That move sparked some friction between the schools, which contributed to them not renewing the series. With the SEC going to a divisional format and eight conference games in 1992, then-LSU Athletic Director Joe Dean said he couldn't afford to give up one of three non-conference home games every year.
"You've almost got to have seven home games to pay the bills," Dean said. "That's all it was. Some of the A&M people felt because we were losing to them we didn't want to play anymore.
"It was peaceful, friendly. It wasn't ugly. I thought we'd wait a few years and reschedule them when we could manipulate the home-and-home series with the SEC."
Crow had a different point of view.
"I said, 'Get out of another (game)' because this game means too much for us,'" Crow said. "We would sell the stadium out for LSU. Them and Texas were only ones we did that."
LSU eventually refused to play the final two games and the schools settled the matter for $100,000. Attempts by LSU to renew the series have been rebuffed, insiders say, because of lingering hard feelings over breaking the contract.

Thank you, roadGator, but I have to disagree.
With the exception of having good academics, solvency, a well-rounded AD, and teeth, LSU is more like A&M.

Way back in the day, Don Meredith really, eally wanted to play for Coach Bryant at A&M, but tearfully declined, telling Coach Bryant "Coach, if only you were anywhere, ANYWHERE else?"

College Station isn't that great right now but back in Don's day it was terrible.
