    I know the debate over whether LSU gets media respect is an exercise in futility, but, I was just looking at their ESPN.com college FB home page and there are 45 "college football headlines", none of which mention LSU.

    All I can think is that there was so much ass-whoopin' goin' on, and we were favored to beat Miss State twice as bad as we did, so there's no story.

    I don't think they're ignoring LSU as much as we don't stroke their manhood the way Notre Dame and USC does.

    I'm glad we didn't make any headlines like Florida, Georgia, and USC did.

    Last week we beat a top-10 opponent on the road on ESPN and we got a ton of exposure. This week we beat a doormat on ESPNWHO while three top-5 teams got beat--the best one opposite our game. No one saw us, only the highlights. We can't be the news every week--that's for Tebow and USC. Flying under the radar doesn't hurt when you're still ranked in the top-3.

    All that matters is being #1 or #2 when the BCS rankings come out. Then . . .all we have to do to get in the BCS championship game is win out.

    exactly, we didn't have a marquee match up. No big deal. Our big games are in front of us.
