What don't you understand that the ratings weren't high BECAUSE of A&M?


They were becauase of Johnny. Johnny is on A&M's team. For ratings, they are the one in the same. Why does that make yall butthurt?

Why do we hate A&M and wish to belittle their footprint?


I thought the entire reason for inviting them into the SEC was to expand the SEC reach into TX and to INCREASE viewership (TeeVee rights money) etc.


And, the league shares bowl revenue money and we are supposed to HATE the team that might actually pull their own weight and score a BCS bowl birth?



What am I missing? I truly do not understand.

The delusion that they are basically guaranteed to go to the BCS over us because they one 1 of 3 games against good SEC teams.

There is more national interest in a Heisman contender than there is for LSU. I don't know why that makes yall so butthurt.


SO......LSU fans are butthurt because we deserve to go to a BCS bowl over a team we beat.

With identical records (assuming both win out)

LSU's resume is better and we have a better National Rep than A&M, as well.

yes, we are so butthurt

You might "deserve" it on the field, but that isn't the debate, or the only thing taken in to account. You don't deserve it because A&M would travel just as well, and tv ratings are going to be higher for Johnny than they would LSU. Deal. With. It.

Still less interest. There is more national interest in Johnny. Deal. With. It.

Didn't read the whole thread but A&M thinking they would get selected over LSU is hilarious. They beat Bama and all of a sudden they think they can throw their weight around room? Please.

ummmm....A&M doesn't get to "decide" to go. They would have to be INVITED. It would not be A&M "throwing weight around". It would be the Fiesta Bowl selection committee making a CHOICE.


Now, I happen to believe it would be LSU. But, it is not crazy to think it could be A&M . And, more importantly, it harms me none at all that the A&M fans have hope.

No, we've been thinking that since we got brought into the conference even while your fans were throwing a screaming temper tantrum on the floor.

Just need to look at the regular season records of our past opponents compared to ours.
