LES MILES CALLS OUT USC, BIG 12, 11 YEAR OLD GIRL.
AP--BATON ROUGE, LA. Les Miles made an incendiary appearance on a local radio show in Baton Rouge last week, lambasting the Pac-10, USC, and the Big 12 for what Miles insinuated were their weak schedules and overall quality of competition. Miles then shocked listeners by attacking 11 year old Hayley Lafontaine, a local Baton Rouge child and neighbor of Miles.

Hayley Lafontaine, Les Miles hates your ass.
Miles began the tirade by responding to a query about a hypothetical matchup between USC and LSU in this year's BCS championship game.
"I can tell you this, that they have a much easier road to travel," Miles said. "They’re going to play real knockdown drag-outs with UCLA and Washington, Cal-Berkeley, Stanford — some real juggernauts — and they’re going to end up, it would be my guess, in some position so if they win a game or two, that they’ll end up in the title [game].
"I would like that path for us. I think the SEC provides much stiffer competition."
Miles' rant then snowballed into a critique of his former conference as head coach at Oklahoma State.
"The Big 12 is a conference that might have two really pretty good teams, maybe four. I think the Pac-10 may have one or two really good ones. The ACC certainly, arguably, has some quality teams.
"I don't think there's any conference out there that has as many quality teams as ours."
Not done, Miles then lambasted neighbor Hayley Lafontaine, an 11 year old student at Malducul Middle School.
"Never...and I mean never...have I seen such a thoroughly mediocre and pisspoor performance by a child in all aspects of her life as in Hayley Lafontaine.
I've had the opportunity to watch plenty of kids in my life, but none have disappointed me--and the whole fucking world, actually--than that little pigtailed bag of crapshit, Hayley Lafontaine."
The host attempted to intervene, but Miles refused to yield the mic.
"Her bicycle lacks streamers. Her birthday parties always turn up the dregs of the sixth grade, including Darwin the fat nerd from down the street who always wears Earth Shoes and smells like bad cheese."
"Hayley never sells Girl Scout cookies either, meaning I have to buy them at the office, which means hundreds of bucks out of Lester's hat budget thanks to 'not wanting to look like a dickhead who won't buy cookies from everyone's goddamn huckster of a child.' That half-assed ninny costs me hundreds every year, and all I get for it is five pounds of excess body weight and stacks of uneaten Tagalongs in my fucking fridge."

Hayley Lafontaine, unwitting target of Les Miles' rage.
Miles continued.
"She continually misses the easy layup goals her father sets her up for in front-yard soccer. She couldn't tap in a one timer if they threw a Zorb at her and asked her to roll it into the Grand fucking Canyon. Counting on a scholarship to offset being nouveau-riche house-poor trash, Lafontaines? Don't fucking think so, Charlie."
"And her clothes? Puh-leeze. Chloe Sevigny called--her wardrobe puked and wants what it ate for lunch back. Hayley's clothes look like somebody redesigned Zayles' kids line on PCP and then let it pass through the digestive system of an irritated Llama...and that's just getting close. Crocs? Crocs? She's eleven, and she's given up on life already, which is a good call, Hayley Lafontaine. Because you are a loser and will be for the entirety of your poor, miserable existence."
"And she plays Avril fucking Lavigne all damn day. Avril Lavigne. As if anyone in the world gave a flying dog turd-shaped airplane made of dog turds about her anymore. She's even behind in her mid-adolescent soundtrack music, for fuck's sake. Goddammit, how I loathe that brokedick excuse for an 11 year old girl. She keeps going on about how excited she is about the Bratz movie coming up--Omigod bratz bratz bratz weeeEEEEEEE--that I'm thinking of burning down the Regal 5 the night before just to watch her cry."

OMG!!! BRATZ!!!
Miles paused, then concluded. "Champions hate mediocrity. And all champions should hate 11 year old Hayley Lafontaine with the intensity of a bonfire fueled with the gas from the endlessly farting ass of a mythic, methane-farting Bull-God."
Miles finished, and then exited the studio quietly. When reached for comment, the parents of Hayley Lafontained declined comment, saying only that Hayley was busy with a twirling lesson and would be unavailable for interviews, and Les Miles "talked a lot of shit for someone living off Nick Saban's leavins'," and that they were not "house-poor," but rather waiting for a shipment of expensive blonde-wood Scandinavian furniture to arrive post-haste.

This sort of piss-shit article demeans college football and writing as we know it. Burnt Orange Nation has some quality articles. You look at mgoblog, there’s about 3 or 4 really good ones there. This shithole place really brings down football. In particular, the commenters are lackluster, and they give each one of the posts a huge number on the side, like that matters. I can’t see why anyone would like this place. The way I see it, you ought to just head down to athlonsports.com, a real powerhouse of journalism.
Sincerely,
Coach Les

“…endlessly farting ass of a mythic, methane-farting bull-god…”, I had no idea Les had such verbal acuity…obviously that is what he’s hiding in the enormous space encompassed by the top of his cap, an overly developed cerebrum dedicated to the verbal brutalizing of pre-pubescent girls.

Let’er Rip Les! I love that guy. At least the embarrasing stuff he does is macho, unlike some coaches that cry after press conferences.
I would love to see a cagefight between Miles and Dan Hawkins.
Dan: It’s Division I Football! It’s the Big 12!
Les: You suck — you went 2-10 last year. The big 12 sucks. The only way you could suck even more is if you had Haley Lafontaine at QB.

Perplexity Dept:
I am not sure whether I hate or like Miles’ recent anti-USC commentary:
I like that he went beyond the standard head coach company line diatribe and spoke his mind (what little he has). I like that he gave USC bulletin board material, not that they need it. Sort of like giving Matt Leinart another bimbo to go out with.
Though, I hate that he attacked the Pac 10. The SEC may have stronger defenses, but the Pac 10 is way ahead on the offensive side of the ball.
Actually, even though I am a USC fan, it was funny to hear some smack from a bonehead coach.

Although Orson can go fuck himself for hating crocs. They’re comfy. As a joke, I told my parents he loved them, so they got him a perfectly nice pair. In revenge, he got a sharpie and wrote “Left” and “Right” on them so he looks retarded when he wears them.

We’ll see how the strength of schedule plays out, but USC has a 3 game season at this point:
- Nebraska
- Cal
- UCLA (but only because they lost to them last year)
Games that USC should dominate:
- Idaho, Notre Dame, teams from Washington, teams from Oregon, teams from Arizona, and Stanford.
LSU has a 6 game season this year:
- Virginia Tech
- South Carolina
- Florida
- Kentucky
- Auburn
- Arkansas
LSU should dominate the following teams:
- Miss State, Middle Tenn, Tulane, Bama, LaTech, Ole Miss
How can you argue that USC has a tougher schedule right now?

If I remember incorrectly he already had something to say about Alabama and Saban. That will be a good match-up. Les has the social graces of an inbred chimp that suffers from dementia and Saban who speaks with a forked tongue that Voldemort would be proud to call his own.

#33…are you serious about Kentucky? WTF?
Is this the same USC team that beat Arkansas 70-17 and 50-14 the last two years, while LSU only beat Arkansas 19-17 and 38-28? The same team that is 59-6 over the last 5 years, and those 6 losses only coming to Pac-10 or Big 12 teams. The same team that manhandled Auburn in 02 and 03, while LSU was losing to Auburn in 02.
I know we don’t know how to count up here in the Big 11, but those figures don’t add up in my book.
Honestly though, all I care about is that LSU beats Bama…the rest is gravy.

USC is super talented — nobody is arguing that pre-season they are the best team in the nation, and Pete Carroll is a fantastic coach.
The argument is over SOS. I purposely left out Notre Dame because why pick on them, but seriously, you have ND going into the season without their top running back from last year, their top receivers, and their heisman runner-up quarterback.
Kentucky would tear up an easier schedule with their offense. Andre Woodson and Rafael Little are two guys that would absolutely light it up in easier conferences — they would take all the fat bitches in West Virginia’s haystacks.

- I love the sorry ass excuse for having 50 dropped on your defense…RUN DMC plays corner too? Last I checked the “new” OC was running the offense…and last I checked he lit up some SEC defenses…but it was only because Arky didn’t get into their groove until later in the season….
So what if Ohio State fell out of their groove late in the season…could I argue that the ass whipping put on us by the Gators didn’t count?
See that is the problem with the vast majority of you SEC fans…you want your cake (and midgits) and eat it (them) too.

Define “Lighting it up” against SEC defenses — Malzahn didn’t score more than 30 against Florida, LSU, TOBCU, Alabama, or Auburn.
I think LSU would have won or at least be close against USC in 2003, but who cares? LSU has the trophy for ’03 just like Florida won it all last year.
We could talk shit all day about hypothetical what-if scenarios but it’s all bullshit because none of it happened in the past. “What if USC had to play in the SEC”, “What if Kentucky played Oregon’s Schedule”, “What if Kenny Irons wasn’t thinking about oral pleasure with a midget”
These arguments could easily be solved by a playoff — someone get myles brand on the phone.

When someone in the Pac-10 other than USC can manage to win a MNC, then come talk. In my lifetime, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, and LSU have won one, and Auburn’s been shafted two good times (‘83, ’04) with another undefeated season (’93).

Anyway, freaking LSU is always looking for excuses already, our conference is too hard, wha wha wha…….. If you want to settle who’s better, there’s only one way, on the FREAKING FIELD. I don’t want to hear whining about how your conference is better. We shared a common opponent, Arkansas, and last time I checked, it wasn’t LSU that dropped 70 and 50 on the Hawgs. So, let’s both cross our fingers that both our teams make it to the MNC game and we’ll see which team brings it.
For now, the only thing we do know is that the best LSU HS players/running backs would rather play for Southern Cal than LSU.

Thanks for pointing out that you idiots can’t count and then proving it. No, this USC team is NOT the “same team” that beat Auburn in 2002 (a squeaker headed to overtime if our TE hadn’t dropped a 4th quarter sure-TD pass) and 2003. Every player on both teams is gone from the 2002 game and only redshirts from 2003 are still around for this year and those guys didn’t play.
When are idiots like you and the media going to comprehend that what happened between USC and Auburn in 2002 and 2003 doesn’t have shit to do with what would happen between AU and USC in 2004 or USC and LSU in 2007. They are DIFFERENT TEAMS, dipshit.

I think that everybody is reacting to ESPN’s hype on the BIg East, the Big 10, and USC; to the point where it was beyond annoying.
Does anyone remember two years ago when ESPN spent 10 days comparing USC to the “greatest teams of all-time” only to have them lose to Texas? How about Kirk Herbstreit stating several times that “the gators are too weak to be on the same field with ohio state”, and then Florida whupped some Ohio State ass, a couple of days after USC, who lost two games, whupped Michigan’s ass.
By the way, I hope Gator fans shit in paper bags, light them on fire, and throw them at herbie when gameday comes to town.
I think USC, Cal, Ohio State, Michigan, Florida, LSU, Texas, and Nebraska are all good teams. The problem is the way we decide our national championship, which has to do with strength of schedule. Strength of schedule is still subjective, and different people lobby all the time (ESPN for the teams that play on their network, Mack Brown, Urban Meyer, Pete Carroll) to get their interests in. Until we get a playoff this is the way it’s going to be.

I sure don’t want to plaly to USC, at least not until they get hit by crippling sanctions for flagrant NCAA violations.
I think FLorida State in the ACC of the 90’s is a good analogy for USC of today.
They are way more talented than their conference opponents, don’t get too beat up throughout the course of the season and usually end up in a good position to win it all.
As far as beating Arkansas by 50 and 70, it’s no secret that Boss Hawg is not a super coach. Fortunately for him he’s had Matt Jones and now McFadden who can manage to win games single handedly.

I’m not USC, Pac-10, Big-12, or Nick Saban; but either LSU can walk the walk or they can’t. I thought they lost about three players that they aren’t going to replace with the same caliber players.
Personally, I drop LSU out of the top ten simply because HE is their coach AND he appears to be an idiot.
His players HAVE to be pulling him aside and telling him to please shut up.
He was responsible for the Tennessee loss in ’05. No one else.

I was referring to USC as a program, not as a team in terms of who’s on the roster and who’s gone.
Speaking of the last 20 years, how many times has Auburn been banned from Bowl games, television, the SEC championship game, etc. WTF has Alabama or Auburn done in the last 20 years besides cheat???? The two schools from the state of Alabama have probably combined for more NCAA violations than any other state.
Here’s the last 10 years of Alabama vs. Auburn in comparison to Ohio State vs. Michigan:
National Championships: 2-0
Heisman Trophies: 2-0
Top 5 finishes: 8-1
10 Win Seasons: 12-6
Do we really want to take a closer look at the number of first team all-americans, first round draft picks, and the total number of players drafted into the NFL?
And as far as being anyone’s bitch, sadly can’t disagree with regards to Ohio State. However, despite Ohio State’s piss poor performance against SEC teams in the post season, the Big Ten has held its own against the SEC. 13-13 in bowl games in the last 10 years…and just about every Big Ten team has a quality win over an SEC team in a bowl game…Ohio State is the exception. In fact, if Ohio State would have halfway held up its end of the bargain there would be no arguing conferences.

- How does USC beating Auburn in 2003 = 7 years ago? Just wondering.
#89
I think I mentioned our piss poor performance in the National Championship game and against SEC teams in general…I’m not hiding anything there.
However, this was an LSU vs. USC argument and I am taking the USC side, naturally because regardless of all the excuses you want to make, such as SOS or USC doesn’t play anyone, etc., USC still only has 6 losses in the last 5 years and the combined total of those losses is 22 f’king points. And yet USC gets ZERO credit from SEC fans, despite 4 straight wins over SEC teams, heisman’s out the ass, hotter chicks, more tradition, and Petey.
And see it’s really not about USC, to me it’s more about the SEC fans that have to beat their chest about how tough their conference is and how no one else in the country plays anyone…This rant from Miles is just another example.
The reason I haven’t really mentioned Ohio State (other than the comparison between tOSU vs. Mich and Bama vs. Auburn – that was just for shits and giggles) is because this is not about Ohio State…this is about LSU and USC.

Just hard for me to not give the Pac 10 some credit, of those 6 losses in the last 5 years for USC, 4 of them came from Pac 10 schools. Seems like I remember UCLA going to back to back Rose bowls around the same time they beat Bama back to back years. Arizona State had a shot at the National Championship in 1996, but we all know what happened then, you’re welcome gator fans.
Since 1990 the Pac 10 has had the fewest Undefeated conference champions with 5. The SEC has had 6 and the Big Ten has had 7.
Also, since 1990, all of the Pac 10 teams have won at least 1 conference championship (all 10 teams); only 6 different teams have won an SEC title since 1990; 8 for the Big Ten.
My point being, you guys don’t give any credit to the other conferences, yet the other conferences have fewer undefeated conference champions, and more teams winning the conference titles.

#85,
No one respects the USC program as much as Auburn fans. We’ve said so since visiting them 5 years ago. However, my post wasn’t really about them and you dodged the point of my post. The point of my post was that Columbus U. has been THE BITCH, The insolent whore who has been getting backhanded by the Pimp that is the SEC for TWO DECADES.
By the way, did you really just say something about cheating? An OSU fan talking about cheating? How many big-time scandals have you guys had in the last 10 years? Auburn hasn’t been on football probation in the last decade. We’ve had a minor, self-reported one in basketball. You guys have had the Maurice Clarett fiasco and I seem to remember the basketball team cheating so much that I thought O’Brien was going to get hanged for treason. Oh, that was for buying up that team that beat our basketball team in 1999. That team of pros went to the Final Four and then Clarett took you to another (tainted) title.
Do you guys do anything BUT cheat up there and instinctively grab your ankles every time you see an SEC school? My personal fave was the whippings Granny Holtz put on you in consecutive years at SOUTH CAROLINA?:!?!?!?!?!

Everyone here is familiar with the ACC/Big Televen challenge in basketball, right?
Why don’t we have Tom Hansen and Mike Slive get together and pick a year for the Pac-10 and SEC to do the same in Football. Match up the 10 SEC teams that aren’t Vandy and Miss St. against Pac-10 teams making the most compelling matchups (for instance, you could do the USC/LSU thing, or you could do USC/Bama recalling the big games from the 70s… maybe it depends on what year they decide to do it).
Do it all on one weekend, early in the season… say the second week.

Boy Howdy,
Yeah I bet ol’ Pete would be up for that. USC is awesome. No doubt there. But not good enough to play good teams week in and week out. And yes, the SEC has some shitty, shitty teams (see Ole Miss and Miss. St.), but other than those two (really only Miss. St.), every team in the conference demands preparation and actual play-calling. The only true breaks most SEC teams take are Miss. St. (if it’s on the schedule) and usually one crappy out-of-conference for homecoming. USC can completely take off at least 7 weeks out if the year. That makes a huge difference when the national championship game rolls around. And no conference championship either.

Let’s face it; any given year Florida, UT, UGA, LSU, Aub and Bama are capable to compete for a national title. I say capable because certain things have to go their way of course but the talent base is surely there. The talent base in available in California for teams like UCLA and Cal to compete on a national level but I have not seen anything in the last 10 years that says they could jump up and win one any given year. It’s really hard for me to argue against the SEC being the deepest conference right now. However, the potential is there for conferences to pass them in the near future (i.e. ACC)

I think that Les Miles underestimates USC’s schedule. I’m not going to dispute that the SEC has more quality teams than the Pac-10, but you have to consider that the SEC is a 12 team conference and the Pac-10, obviously, only has 10 teams.
The Pac-10 only gets 3 OOC dates (one of them is Nebraska for USC) and then they play the entire Pac-10. It’s not a cakewalk like Miles appears to think it is.

Well, tOSUBuckeyes has already done an excellent job of informing everyone here of how things stand when it comes to the actual records and final scores. But I think I should add an important stat that SEC fans are in constant denial of…
Since 2000, the Pac-10 has a winning record vs. the SEC. Go ahead and read that again.
Yet every SEC homer who like to point out their teams tough games will list a team like Arkansas who got crushed by USC, but USC doesn’t get to list Pac-10 teams to whom they lost.
Sorry, but if you think LSU has a tougher schedule than USC, then the rest of the world outside SEC-country does not agree with you.

So when you cut through all the huffing and puffing you have the SEC with a losing record against the Pac 10 since 2000, 13-13 against the Big 10 in the last 10 years, 5-8 in the 5. And not to take anything away from the Gators, they whipped our ass, but honestly, and I know this is a big if, but had Ohio State won instead of Florida, it would’ve been a clean sweep over the SEC by the Big Ten and back to back losses for the SEC champion in bowl games. When was the last time the Big Ten champion lost to a Big East team? Or the last time a Pac 10 champion lost to a Big East champion?
And for the record, I’m not saying the SEC sucks or that the SEC is not tough; I’m just saying the SEC does not dominate the world the way SEC fans wish it did.

The idea that USC coasts through the season without injuries is flat out wrong. Last year the loss of the top 4 fullbacks was a huge factor in the problems in the running game. Also the defensive back field was decimated and there were some key injuries on the OL.. Of course since last years USC team was so young most of the injured players are now back having to compete with the guys who replaced them. That depth is why I think USC is going to have a really good year.

funniest thing ever was when arkansas visited the coliseum and their players chanted as they came down the tunnel “we own…sc”, mocking the fans chant of we ARE sc. then after the first quarter when the score was 28-0 and sc scored 4 TD’s on 9 plays…they focused on the arkansas players on the sideline and they had that “i just got neutered” look. classic…yeah okay, i guess you really own sc. just like the sec owns the pac 10, right?
get a life sec fans.

Do you honestly expect your low opinion of SEC graduates to be taken seriously when you can’t capitalize letters, use correct punctuation, or even bother to include both subjects and objects in sentences?
Give it up, calvin. We all know your punk bitch ass had to go look up “neutered” on dictionary.com.

Back the truck up here folks….my last post was #130…not sure who is posting under my moniker….Jeff from LA…but I can assure you that my posts are from a legit Ohio State fan.
I have to admit though, hatred for the SEC creates some strange bedmates….not that I hate the entire SEC…just Bama/Auburn fans (the worst in the SEC), Les Miles, and sort of kind of don’t like Meyer (probably just because of the ass raping he put on my sweatervest).

Hmm.
I guess Orson’s computer majick can reveal the truth. Either way, I like the tOSU Buckeyes persona.

The drama increases.
I want to emphatically state that even though I’m a USC fan in SoCal (like Jeff from LA) as well as being a tOSU grad, I’m not that same person (or persons) as Jeff/tOSU.
DC Trojan….err I mean

Yup, it looks like Jeff in LA was pretending to be tOSU Buckeyes. They are different IP addresses (from the first “I agree with TCOAN” post up to post 150 was the Jeff from LA IP, while the tOSU Buckeyes IP is on the posts before and after that section.
shrug Seems to me like Jeff from LA was up to some mischief.

I think Jeff from LA WAS up to some mischief. And so was tOSU. And probably maskedavenger. And also DC Trojan. And the guy who tried to make himself stand apart from the others by typing in all lower-case. Man, tOSU, et al, you are a loser. I mean, cheating is accepted in most college sports, but blog posting. C’mon!

Sweet 7lb, 13oz baby Jesus in a basket, y’all are worse than fucking Girl Scout Troop #559 (Holla!!!). I get 10 minutes a day on Daddy’s dial-up and I have to read 100 comments about tOSU and some fruit basket from LA? This site sucks worse than Mr Miles’ Halloween Party last year. He dressed up as Frankenstein, but didn’t paint his face or anything, so he just looked like Bobby Boudreaux (the town mongoloid), and worse, he smelled like Grabby Uncle Lou who hugs a little too long. Which reminds me why I came back here.
Mr Chmura – I think I’m a little old for you, Short Eyes.

to # 33. USC plays at Cal, at Nebraska, at ND, and has UCLA. That might be easier or harder than LSU schedule. Only time will tell. #127 is spot on correct and has finally exposed the truth that SEC coaches and fans cant take. I cant wait until the Trojans hand the the Tigers their heasd in the National Championship Game.

As if my personal opinion wasn’t enough to convince you people that USC’s schedule is just as tough if not tougher than LSU’s schedule, our good friend Mark Schlabach has weighed in on the subject.
He’s got USC with the 4th hardest schedule in the country; LSU didn’t make the top 10.

Sorry guys, no mischief was intended.
I was intending to praise tOSUBuckeyes in my post but without thinking, I accidentally typed that part in the name required section instead of in my actual post, that’s why I immediately put please ignore the first post, as soon as I realized my mistake. I was hoping Orson would notice the mistake and not post it.
Sorry tOSU for the mistake, there was no intent to misappropriate your identity. I blame it on the fact I was watching tv while typing out the post.

No problem Jeff, we’re all good…that is until next september when you guys come to the Shoe. Now that is going to be an epic series, in season as it should be, just like when we played Texas, with the winner being in the drivers seat for the National Championship game.

LSU should just leave the SEC. They are enough of a power to make it on their own without the conference affiliation, right? As an independent, they could play USC and OSU every year and then wouldn’t have to complain about any type of bias. Of course then they would have to listen to Urban Meyer whine about how “LSU doesn’t play the caliber of oponents that the SEC schools do…”

USC fan is still banging the Arkansas drum? Bloody hell, they played a WR at QB, McFadden attempted to play with a broken foot, and they turned the football over 5 times in what the first game of the year? “We beat the SEC West Champs!”
Give me a fucking break.

Just about every saturday SEC teams have to worry about their SEC opponents. There is always the chance that a slip up could lose the game, therefore cost them a run at the National Championship. When in the past 4 years has anyone thought that USC wouldn’t dominate their opponent. This is because the rest of their schedule is on a slightly lower playing field, not because they are that much better than everyone in the country. That’s where the strength of schedule arguement comes into play. USC is just as good as any SEC team, but when you don’t really get that many chances to mess up you probably won’t. Without a doubt the SEC has multiple National Championship contenders every year. When USC went for their “3-peat ???” they only won 1-1/2 out of 3 games. This only a 50% winning record playing this caliber of team. That would not make you a “dynasty” in the SEC. As far as Les goes, I was indifferent about his coaching abilities. But since he was the person who finally stood up and said something about that whore of a 6th grader (it needed to be done), I think he’s got the balls to lead a team.

While at Okla state he was 16-16 in conference. thats perfection isn’t it. I mean who could ever forget that great COME FROM BEHIND victory over Southern Miss. in the Houston Bowl. ( only victory in a bowl game while at okla st.) This is like Nick Saban bagging on the Big Ten while getting dumped 12 times by 21 points or more and going 19-14 in Big Ten play. By the way Carpet bagger NICK missed out on Wisc or ohio state 4/5 years. Hats off to Nick in at least recognizing OSU, Mich and penn state. Of course he forgot to mention Wisconsin and purdue Ironically he was 2-5-1 against those two. Dont forget 10/19 wins were against Indiana and Illinios. Not soooo impressive HUH. These two clowns should just shut up.

Let me set the record straight here…SEC is the best conference in football. If USC did have the balls to play such powerhouses throughout the year, they would not even be thinking about a BCS or even much CBS. And of course USC and the Pac-10 puts up alot of offensive numbers, only because your opponents defense is equal to a bunch of rice-paddy warriors…If LSU does manage to make it through this tough schedule, then USC will get manhandled not only on offense but on defense. USC has beat Arkansas and Auburn a few years back. Arkansas got hot at the end of the season, not on the first game of the season without McFadden (there whole team). And for the Notre Damned guy, please….LSU showed up drunk to the Sugar Bowl and molested Brady Quinn and his g/f…Go SEC, Go LSU, Fuck ya’ll

Cal just spanked bitch ass Tennesee. One of the mighty SEC titans of Les Miles fantasy world. So much for girly pants SEC defense.
SEC people of the Les Miles variety think they’ve got it tough, because they’re too busy in-breeding inorder to preserve family trees that look like recycling symbols, to be bothered to stay up and actually watch any Pac-10 football. Plus, we all know they’re too stupid to actually be able to read any critical analysis of same.
The only good team in the SEC is Florida. The rest are trash talking nothings that can only produce rankings by beating down on football teams from basketball schools, or schools where the most popular degree programs are Moonshinin’ and Homophobia for Homosexual Conservatives.
