Just saying, the SEC is more than just football.

SEC is going to home to Starfleet, not San Francisco :dude:

I had to use them hiring someone a couple of years ago, per my boss. Even though I was looking to hire someone living in Canada, every resume was an Indian. They had zero non-indian resumes to off me.

SEC with 5 in top 10 and one of them is not Alabama :booboo:

Who knew they had this much pull to make LSU completely irrelevant.

Haha, I was never on team vote out LSU. You are one of our historical rivals, there is history there.

I think my only negative statement on this was in regards to someone who thought LSU would be like Notre Dame if they went Independent. There is 0% chance of that happening, LSU is not a big enough brand. In reality only Notre Dame is that big enough of a brand and they barely make it most years.

Independent LSU would be shunned by SEC teams, and most Big 10 would not schedule either in the 9 conference game era. You would find yourself in the Big 12 more than likely.

Let me circle back, there is 0% chance of LSU getting removed from SEC. This is a dumb distraction to the start of the season, but that is the Lane Train. :banghead:
