Still Not Ranked & LSU Is

[THE Bruce Dickinson]

I would also contend that another requirement to be ranked is to not lose to Troy at home, but that rule doesn't seem to apply to LSU. I think that's what everyone is so upset about.

It is a what have you done for me lately world. Yes, unfortunately we don't get the benefit of the doubt most of the time. But, if we go to UGA/Auburn and play at least play them competitive it looks better.

Everyone sees LSU whether correct or not as a team that was trying to figure things out when they came to Starkville. They now think they have figured some things out and are a better team. Also, there is no doubt if we played them tomorrow in Starkville it would be a different game. I still think we would win but I am not sure we would pound on them. They are extremely young and a lot of those kids are just now figuring out what this is all about and how much effort and intensity you have to play with.

Take care of A&M and we will be ranked. Honestly, the way we get noticed nationally is to keep putting guys like Dak Prescott, Chris Jones, Benny Mc, Fletcher Cox, Slay, Smith, Wright, etc. in the league. Kids take notice of that.

Look what Dak has done for us as far as recruiting QBs go. These kids ultimate goal is making it to the league and if you can show them that you can get them there you are going to bring attention to your program.

2 whippings vs top teams on the road are worse than than 1 whipping on the road vs an unranked sec team and a home loss to a sunbelt team

I contend that LSU would be ranked in either one of those scenarios.
