He said word for word that Auburn had no case against LSU
Absolutely false. You lose any credibility (not that you had any in the first place) when you just start ourtight making shite up. Ive said from the jump that both should be top 8. I just explained how the shite you aubies were pushing, wasnt as cut and dry as you wanted it to be, which the committe proved today.
quote:
The thread was started by an Auburn fan comparing LSU saying we are 6th on the totem pole. LSU fans then provided counter arguments saying he was wrong (which he was). Pointing out singular posts is dumb because the whole premise of the thread was dumb. As correctly pointed out by many LSU fans lol. It was never a fight between Auburn and LSU for a top 8.
Look, let these guys dig as deep as they want to make up whatever strawman fallacies they need to get their internet message board victory. This has been such a weird saga from the begining, which we tried to understand.
The committee did nothing but prove what I and several others were trying to point out. That you can not look at the metrics in a vaccuum and its obvious the aubies here have no clue what that means.
All you have to do is look at the two teams that are the topic of this thread. According to the aubies here and what was posted multiple times just last night, "last years top 8 were all the top 8 RPI". So with that being the stance how did LSU with an RPI of 10 manage to shoot AAAALLLL the way to the #6 seed? And conversely, auburn with the 5th best record in the SEC and 6th place finish rocket all the way to the #4 spot? (which if you look at the reactions from across the country, seems to be a pretty big head scratcher @ #4)
I'll tell you why. Its because just as we have been saying, the selections do not take place in a vaccuum. Different metrics are weghted differently from conference to conference and team to team across the country. LSUs conference record obviously outweighed their RPI, and Auburns RPI obviously outweighed their conference record. Like I said yesterday, a 15-15 record is not the same as a 15-15 record in the SEC so that metric is weighted differently. This is why the committe exists. The position of LSU and Auburn LITERALLY prove our point.
Those of you that stick this shite show out, yall have fun

Conclusion
Both teams have had good seasons and are deserving of a Top 8 national seed, IMO. But I’m having a hard time squaring some folks putting LSU ahead of Auburn at the moment when Auburn has a higher RPI and swept LSU in the head-to-head series.
ETA and then it went into one post after another, by LSU fans, on why LSU would be a higher seed.

Word for word a few posts down
Neither LSU nor Auburn were on the chopping block had the SEC only gotten 5 top 8s. So this entire thread was stupid
And just for fun some more
quote:
The reason this matters is while the SEC absolutely deserves 6 National Seeds, we have no idea if the committee will actually allow that to happen. If they decide to only give us 5, one team is on the chopping block.
Texas, Vandy, Arkansas, and Georgia seem like they are pretty much locks at the moment.
Auburn and LSU both should be based on resume, but one might get bumped just because the committee might not allow us to have 5.

That’s the whole point of the thread. Both are deserving of being Top 8. But it’s going to boil down to whether the committee will allow 6 teams from one league to all get national seeds.
If they decide no, one is on the chopping block.
quote:
Because if you look at the resumes, Auburn and LSU are clearly 5th and 6th in the SEC.
It’s splitting hairs at some point, but Texas is clearly #1. Vandy is IMO a clear #2. After that I think Arkansas and Georgia appear to be slightly ahead of Auburn and LSU.
I think most anyone would agree those are the tiers at the moment.
quote:
I said both should be national seeds. But the committee has never awarded one conference 6 or more national seeds, and there is a lot of speculation that they won’t do it this year.
The entire point of this entire thread is that both are deserving, but if the committee decides to only allow 5 SEC teams, who gets left out.

most threads here are stupid. This was a thread about who should be seeded higher.................now that it has played out, was his premise wrong?

This was a thread about who gets left out between LSU and Auburn. He makes that clear several times. Georgia, as it turns, would have been the school with something to worry about
LSU fans really don’t care what they’re seeded, only that they were top 8. Because that’s all that matters, being in line to host a super regional. Our last national title team was seeded 1 spot higher than this year’s team. I promise you it’s not important
I will also note that LSU fans were absolutely correct that they would get a top 8 despite not having a top 8 RPI

Pure BS. I have read the first post numerous times. It most assuredly doesn't say a damn thing about either being left out. LSU fans make shite up as you go along and then spin it from there.
LSU fans kept pointing out record. The OP kept pointing out every other metric besides record.
ETA and if he did say later in the thread.........."if one is left out, who is it and why"?..............again, was his premise wrong?

My man I spoon fed you his other posts from the first page.
Here it is again where he says the point of his thread

The answer to that question would have been…..Georgia

To be honest, UGA is lower than most thought they would be.

It’s almost like the committee uses more than just an RPI composite. Interesting

Case for a National Seed: Auburn vs LSU
“vs” as in “as opposed to; in contrast”. Unless you have a different definition than Webster.

Glad you are finally beginning to understand our entire point all along. Glad you had a moment of clarity man
I can guarantee you that if asked, 99% of people that have any clue what they’re talking about, that they would say the same thing about Auburn being #4.

YOUR entire point was Auburn had no business comparing our resume with yours.

True. How does a school with the #1 ranked SOS and the # 3 RPI think they have any shot of being a top 5 seed? Or maybe it's just 99% of LSU fans?

Despite some folks obviously wanting to talk shite, I don't think any LSU fans care at all.
Congrats to Auburn (and the rest of the SEC teams that made it in).
For LSU (Auburn, Vandy, Texas, Arkansas, UGA)
Goal 1 met: made a regional
Goal 2 met: hosting a regional
Goal 3 met: national seed
Goal 4: win regional
Goal 5: win super regional
Goal 6: do not go 0-2 in Omaha
Goal 7: make finals
Goal 8: win finals
We got a long way to go boys
