That LSU played the gauntlet of the West or they had a down year. Thanks for that confirmation.

huh?

the other guy said we were 3-2 against les, and you asked their record in those years as if to imply we were beating up on them when they sucked.

1 of the years they sucked and we won, jsut like one of the years we sucked and they won. The other 3 meetings were pretty evenly matched, whether that was between 2 really good versions of the teams or 2 mediocre versions fo the teams, and we won 2 of those games compared to 1 for them. What confirmation exactly did you receive?

And by the way, in the 1 year they sucked that we won comfortably in baton rouge, both teams played auburn in addition to elite bama/uf squads. So if they only sucked that year because of a "gauntlet" then I guess we had the same gauntlet.

If "LSU played the gauntlet of the West" shouldn't that indicate that they were a better team than their record indicates? And if so, shouldn't they have had a better record against us?

In 2005 we played in the SECCG and beat them easily. They only had one other loss to Tennessee. (Weak east team)

In 2008 the had played Auburn, South Carolina, Mississippi State and Florida before playing us. (And 3 OOC nobodies) Florida and Georgia beat them.

In 2009 they won...only played Washington, Vanderbilt and MState.

In 2011 they beat us again in the SECCG

In 2013 they lost to us. The only teams of note they played before us was TCU and Auburn.

It would appear as if that gauntlet of the west had very little to do with their wins or losses.

Try again? This is fun!
