Wrong. SOS averages our opponents. Taking a D2 opponent out of the equation would only help.

We still play Troy and North Texas before the Auburn game. We don't need 3 "preseason" games.


Yes, we do. We probably need 4. And if one was to get cancelled I sure as hell wouldn't want it to be the one against the 1 team that runs the SPREAD!!!

If the game is cancelled, LSU will have to scrimmage and the risk of injury is back before you even play a game.

If you don't scrimmage than you fall behind the other teams who have games under their belts.

"Dignan, don't nobody give 2 shits how you feel. Leave the t.v. off and don't go to the game if that is your opinion. STFU while you're at it."

Posting a picture of two dogs fricking and a picture of a toilet- yeah, I value you're opinion buddy.

If you don't care, don't reply to my post.

Who cares if they run the wing t? There isn't much to gain playing a D2 opponent.

If I was in Austin, I probably wouldn't be that concerned about Gustav either. However, those on the coast would prefer this game be played and next week is just another normal week!

This is the sagarin rankings. Appy is ahead of Ole Miss and Troy. He factors all schools in his rankings (which have built in SOS based on those rankings). Sagarin is one of the computer polls in the BCS. Dude, you just don't know what you are talking about.

70 Appalachian State AA = 69.22 0 0 0.00( 0) 0 0 | 0 0 | 69.22 70 | 69.22 70
College Football 2008 Starting Ratings the BCS uses the ELO_CHESS from here
HOME ADVANTAGE= 2.87 RATING W L SCHEDL(RANK) VS top 10 | VS top 30 | ELO_CHESS | PREDICTOR

So you don't see how playing against a team that runs the spread will help us for when we play Auburn? And that every game we can get in prior to Auburn helps our QBs and our young CBs? If you don't see this then me calling you unknowledgable was giving you too much credit.

Exactly. Dignon is a moron because he doesn't know the difference in Div 2 and Div 1-AA (or Div. 1 Football Playoff Division). I have seen Div 2 football teams play and McNeese, and that is some awful college football.

I'm not even an Appy State fan and I'm offended. Appalachian State could be one of the top 60 teams in Division 1 (Football Bowl Division).

They finished #44 in Sagarin's poll last year.

I think people giving them votes for the top 25 last year was dumb, but they are definitely better than North Texas.

This is a historic game. It will be the first time two defending national champions from the previous year have ever faced off against each other. So, no, I don't want to see it cancelled at all.

It's not that I don't know the difference between D2 and Div1-AA. It's that the difference is irrelevant for a D1 powerhouse to play them.

"I'm not even an Appy State fan and I'm offended."

Only pussies talk about being offended. This is a big boy board- try not to get your feelings hurt.

It's called having a job Skeeter. I know most people on the Rant aren't familiar with the concept.
