The #1 seed has never won the CFP.

#2 has won 3 and #4 has won 2.

It’s the perception that Clemson will be a much tougher opponent than whoever ends up at 4.

But you’re right in that people are way too worked up over it. Honestly I just want to win the next 2, whatever would happen in the playoff at that point would be gravy.

Not sure where ppl are getting this. LSU fans are just excited to be in the top 4.

The discussion about OSU jumping to #1 after an uninspiring performance against PSU isn’t us being upset, it’s just pointing out the inconsistency of the committee.

LSU is #1 in AP, Coaches and what would be the BCS. But somehow the human committee puts them at 2?

That's what irritates me. It's frustrating that against all the data, bias can still frick this shite up. If they can do it in Week 13, they can do it down the road just as easily.

Doesn’t that say something about the committee not knowing their shite?

There are a dozen+ threads and hundreds of posts by LSU fans that differ with you. Just look back over the last couple of days.

None of it matters anyway. There are 2 more rankings coming out.

We’ll see how it plays out but having Clemson and tOSU eliminate each other sounds like a slightly easier path.

Not saying any game would be easy.

After having two losses in 2007 and winning it all why would being #2 while undefeated have us upset? Some of you trolls are looking for arguments that ain't there.

Not upset in the least bit. I am loving the disrespect angle. And we have been hungover since beating Bama. Best thing that could have happened to us.

It won't matter much anyway after we get our asses kicked this weekend. Theyll bump us down to 15 after lose to Aggies and Georgia.

The 1 seed is assumed to have a easier path to the final game, as the drop off between #3 and #4 is generally seen as substantial. It matters...kinda. Just win and you get in. Personally, if they're doing this to avoid an SEC semifinal because they expect Bama to get in then I want to stay number one. There would be nothing sweeter than beating Bama in the regular season and then knocking them out of the playoff in the semi.

Not a damn thing. Y'all and tOSU have 2 important games left to play before it means jack-shite...settle down.
