    Just wanted to congratulate you guys on winning the national title. You're obviously a much classier team than the Florida Gators based on post game interviews. However, as much as it hurts to say this, we truly must be overrated to perform this way in the national championship back to back years. I figured last year was a fluke, but it obviously wasn't. Anyways, Congratulations, you guys played great, we didn't, and it's time for another LOOOONG offseason here in Columbus.

    Nice Game

    Thanks for the kind words. Though I didn't get the opportunity to make it down to New Orleans to meet any Buckeye fans, word is they're a really classy group of people. Good luck in the future and feel free to visit us often on the forum.

    The SEC is just a tough, tough conference that plays a style of football that people down in the South feel isn't matched anywhere else. It is a fast, physical and power style of football. These LSU tigers have earned every penny this season.

    We (SEC Teams) bust each other's heads week in and week out and hate each other to the bitter end. And it doesn't matter what the record is of an SEC team you play. You're liable to get beat if you don't come to play. The quality of football from top to bottom is unmatched.

    I think the Big 10 and other conferences have fell behind the SEC as for as quality of teams from top to bottom. It's all about recruiting, development and coaching and the SEC is full of some of the best of all three.

    Yep, look at how many coaches in the SEC have won a national title:

    Spurrier, Fulmer, Saban, Meyer, Miles

    Tuberville to Auburn to 14-0, pretty neat trick going through the SEC.

    Richt is pretty solid at Ga.

    The competition is just razor sharp, week in and week out. You are not likely to come out undefeated.

    Thanks for losing with class, which takes more than wining with class. OSU was a really good team but just wasn't tested by the tough SEC schedule that LSU played. Good game by the Buckeyes, it's no coincidence that they were playing in their second MNC game. Also good to see that their fans have enough class to show up and offer congratulations after such a tough defeat.

    There is no other conference in the country that has those kind of coaches.
    The only thing that compares is possibly pro football.
    Congrats houtigah and LSU Tigah fan btw!
