ESPN is pimping LSU as a contender for the SEC championship and the national title. Help me out with this, because last I checked:

[web]http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/teamsched ... &year=2004[/web]

They dumped two games in the regular season and lost their bowl game to Iowa (nothing against Iowa, just sayin').

They got the shit beat outta them by Georgia, who edged No. 18 Wiscy in their bowl game by a field goal.

They barely lost to an Auburn team that hadn't been contested yet in the season.

They graduated some great talent this past year, Saban is gone / there is a new head coach...and they're a pimpable team?

Help me out here.

LSU is going to go back to being a Dec 30 bowl team, like they were beofre Saban got there. They will contend for the next couple of years based on their previous recruiting classes, but after that, they will go back to mediocrity.

Memo:

To all Espn copywriters and reporters:

In our ongoing efforts to increase ratings, we must remember to stimulate
discussion and pique interest in ALL parts of the country for the upcoming college football season.

"We must rekindle the flames of traditional power teams, revisit those teams that recently had uncharacteristic success, and shine light into those programs that are still trying to achieve some measured success..."

Sincerely,

MANAGEMENT

Thats exactly how I feel. The ass-clown they hired as coach is medicore at best. His resume consists of beating OU twice

Ha Ha, I knew if I threw that bait out there some fish would bite, yea he beat OU twice, but he never beat Mack, I believe the last time Texas lost to OSU was 97 and for OSU that was 3 coaches ago.

I personally think that LSU will be a contender this year. They are absolutely stacked at every position. They have superior depth as well.
