One reason, and probably the biggest, is that LSU, always blows a game or two. We've lost one already and they are waiting for us to blow another. Look what happen last year. The media will change it's mind about LSU as soon as we give them a reason.
It's like the old Bob Dylan tune .... Well, it may be the devil ... or it may be the lord ... But you gotta "serve somebody". The media "SERVES" the East and West Coast population centers, not Louisiana, not just yet.
Warning...Warning...Sarcasm Alert! We play in the obviously weaker SEC, so therefore our defensive stats are skewed. If we played teams of the caliber of the Pac-10, Big 12, Big Ten or the ACC, we'd be deserving of more respect. We're all in-bred southern backwater morons and obviously we can't be as good as we look.
Funny...Louisiana is good enough to host the National Championship game and many a Superbowl...but Louisiana gets not respect.
