So I take it that you believe USC to be undeserving of any accolades concerning the football program?
So any team not name Florida gets credit for going into the Orange Bowl and playing Miami during their run, but if UF does it, i's not impressive? UCLA, Arizona, Cal, Washington St., Stanford, & Washington? Please. Because we were terrible. Home field didn't help squat!
Indeed I did. Based on the joke of a conference schedule each year, no. Based on doing what it takes and what it HAS TO DO and scheduling top BCS ooc games each year, yes.
It depends. Is "any team" using Miami EVERY year as their OOC opponent? Then I'd be equally unimpressed. I'll seriously give it more thought but that is just a strange concept to me. Cal beat TN. Yes, please. Come on now, Miss St is not a worry for LSU. Isn't that what ya'll told ClaraDawg? So it's not the 90s, home field DOES help, and you have 8 home games next season. That is to your favor.
In championship games the winning QB is often given the MVP when no other skill position player stands out. The real MVP for LSU was Ainge, who threw 2 interceptions late in the game.:lol: One to Zenon even though his inside receiver was open. Then later he threw one to Beckwith who was playing underneath his receiver. It was our defense that made the plays to win the game. Perrilloux did fine, but he didn't have to engineer a 2 minute drill winning drive at the end of the game as Flynn has done. His leadership at crunch time over a full season is still untested. His off the field endeavors also come into play. Here is to hoping he stays out of trouble and leads us to victory when crunch time comes.
