Went to the LSU affliate site and this seems to be the sentiment from the public... Note: This appears to be posted from a Bama fan not a LSU fan

LSU Tigers! The Tigers barely beat $43 Alabama, who just lost to #82 UL Monroe. LSU lost to #18 Arkansas and #30 Kentucky. They beat #10 Tennessee yesterday, but having actually seen the Vols lose to Bama from the stands at Bryant-Denny, I was not impressed with Tennessee. The Buckeyes lost to #12 Illinois (10-2). BFD! So, I hope we play LSU. We win!!!!
*All rankings taken from CollegeFootballNews.com BFN 119.

Right now it is the classic situation of the media still feeling resentment for having pumped up the Bucks last year to have them fall flat against UF. It's easier to say they are "undeserving" rather than to do the analysis and admit that this is a damned good team. I hate all that "sitting on the couch" [censored]. tOSU played just as many games as Georgia, USC, and every other team that didn't play a conference championship game. Anybody else think that if the Bucks had beat scUM yesterday instead of 2 weeks ago that it would be a different story?
Anyways, I think the story or the Buckeyes will change to "the best defense in the country" before the game. The media can't sit around for a month and talk about how much the Buckeyes suck. Either that, or it will be a month of arguing about who "really belongs" or why there should be a playoff. The opponent is really going to drive this story and I'm sure there will be plenty more bulletin board material.

Mel Kiper said that he was rooting for OSU to slide in as #1 or #2 because they "beat the system by playing a cupcake schedule." (He hates the BCS for lack of a playoff.) This is a person who said "The first real test for Ohio State will be at Purdue. Next big test will be at Penn State." After the Buckeyes beat PSU, he stopped saying the Buckeyes were in for a "test," and has basically referred to the schedule as a walk through the park.
To his credit, though, I don't think he is one of those who will predict defeat for OSU. He just complains about their schedule and hasn't given a Buckeye player his due, that I can remember, since he praised Brian Robiskie after the Northwestern game. |
Let's not muddy the reputation of paint there fella. These guys are dumb as a truck, a rock, a flagpole, whatever. Paint doesn't deserve this.

Saban costs $4 Million a year but the entire 'Bama squad is only valued at $43? Logan Young writhed.

I can usually tolerate the Sports Reporters (except that effing scumbag Lupica), and I like John Saunders - but, seriously, these guys should NOT be discussing College Football. Especially Lupica and Stephen A. Smith. They don't know ANYTHING. People along the easetern seaboard from Maine to about Delaware still have yet to realize how important college football is to the rest of the country. Albom is disappointing too - he should be much more informed being from Detroit.
