Hey man, cheer up. Take solace in the fact that your team is better than 3 out of the 4 Texas schools in the Longhorn conference.

Honestly its not about better or worse, but the rivalries that existed for 100+ years are what made the fabric of cfb so special. We could have no wins and beating Pitt would be a good year (the Backyard Brawl went back to 1895), and I know its like that for fans of so many teams that no longer have their main rival. Nothing will ever replicate that feeling playing teams we have no history with, at least for me.....and is what made it different from the NFL.

Just looked at the stats, holy shit, he has almost 500 yards of total offense. It is against USC, but still.
And he has no eyebrows.

I like the rivalries long term over winning a national title. I don't know if it's the "been there done that" or the life long experience of going to the games, tailgaiting, traveling to the away games and listening to the folks who are 80 years old at the games talk about the game they remembered when X did Y 75 years ago.
Rivalries are big here. LSU fired the 2nd winningest coach they ever had because he couldn't beat Alabama when Bear Bryant was coaching them . They fired a coach that was averaging 9 games a year when there was one less game on the schedule
On a non related note I'm starting to like bye weeks. LSU had a bye so some friends I hadn't seen in a while since I got sick drove 2 hours to see me and brought rib eyes, we threw on the grille and then sat on the porch in the cool air smoking a cigar and talking about where their voted would go in the TAF for the coach to replace Miles when he goes to Michigan lol.
Not a bad day to spend the afternoon. Oh and then Ole Piss lost so that was a bonus which is almost as good as watching LSU win.
