We came in second. We were ranked higher at the end of the year. We had the same conference record. Deal. With. It


LSU was 2nd in the SECW, they won the head to head tie breaker. End of year rank has nothing to do with where you finished in divisional standings(unless there's a 3 way tie)

SEC Standings were

Bama
UGA
UF
LSU
T-5 TAM/USC

You were probably, at least I hope, trolling.

Yup TAMU was 3rd in SEC West. I assume he was kidding.

But then TAMU did not embarrass the conference by losing to an ACC team Carolina had recently manhandled.

There is no such thing as a tie breaker for second place in a division. Please show me the SEC bylaws. Tie breakers are for deciding divisional champs, thats it.

I don't understand why LSU fans constantly feel the need to brag about 2nd in the west, who gives a shite? Did you win the west? No. Then STFU.

In the end, people are gonna look back at last season and see that Alabama won the title, A&M finished top 5 with a freshman Heisman winner in their inaugural SEC season, and LSU choked against Clemson in their bowl game.

No one is gonna say, gee, I wonder who finished 2nd and 3rd in the west that year?
