If LSU wins out (and I think they will) they certainly deserve it. They lost early to Wisc by 1 play & AU by 1 play. Offense was their problem then and it has improved. Defense is for real.

If we win out I would hope we could get Sugar. After watching LSU last night I would think we should win out, but that's why we play the games.....3 of the top 4 lost against teams everybody thought they should win nothing is a sure thing this football season. ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/Iconcheers.gif)

This thread has remained fairly classy involving several different fan bases starting with the OP. It is called The Rant for a reason, but honest assessments and real football talk is what the majority here really want. I'm a LSU fan and a big fan of college football. Most LSU fans (level headed ones) know we're not a playoff team this year. LSU's record and body of work thus far is reflected fairly in todays AP Poll. IMHO.
I agree. I think LSU deserves a Sugar Bowl invite if they win out (not just b/c I'm an LSU fan). This is based on their body of work and what actually happened on the field (not in the papers). The opening loss to Wisky was by 2 points and a tough loss. Harris threw an interception on a possible game winning drive. The Auburn loss was by 5 points. There's no need to revisit the end of that game, we all know that epic finish. The Alabama loss was by 10 points. A lot can be drawn from that game, but LSU held Bama to 10 points and Bama shutout LSU which are the facts. We have a 6-3 LSU Team with 3 losses (2 conference) by 17 total points.
The conclusion.... This is a very good football team. LSU is a better team than most opposing fans on this board give them credit for. LSU is not as good of a team as some LSU fans on this board give them credit for. The fact is LSU has played well as a team after the head coach was fired and being held back by running an archaic offense. I think their current ranking is justified and deserve a Sugar Bowl invite if they beat UF & A&M.
