Would you rather us not play any small schools(North Texas, Tulane, ULM, etc) and just start to schedule Oregon, Oklahoma, USC, and so on each year so that if in the ungodly event you manage to go undefeated(which you never will) you can be a title team?

Or would you rather actually have a chance to play for a title?

Obviously not, but I do like playing at least 1 major OOC team each year. I mean, if you are going to use that strawman argument, then why wouldn't you want to leave the SEC for the BE where we can make a schedule that will guarantee us to go undefeated every year and have a great shot at the title. I like to watch LSU play the best teams in the country. It would suck to have missed an opportunity to watch a game like the UF/LSU match-up in '07.

I, for one, would rather play only BCS AQ conference teams instead of directional U four times per year. And I also don't think it would make much difference in the number of MNC's LSU wins in the future, either, but it sure would make for more exciting football EVERY DAMN YEAR!!

I say UF is the perfect "permanent" east division foe - it is no harder on us than it is on them.

Even if your goal is MNC every year, please tell me which west team has won more of those than LSU since we started playing UF each year - yeah, that's what I thought.
