I was responding to sleeper, after his response to a post about Alabama. I am not the one who needs to keep up.

People in Ohio still care about USC enough to still hate on them.
Not including the bowl win that Ohio State won on the field, they've beaten the SEC before. Get a life, bro. You bandwagoned a school that is nuked into oblivion and now you have to pay the consequences. Don't worry, LSU could always use more fans.

Hate on' LOL

Sorry I did forget to include the time frame of the last decade instead of making it a broad statement. My bad.

I am as much of a fan to the school in Southern California that is "nuked into oblivion" as you are of the school in Columbus that isn't far behind.

Let me guess, you are a Duke/North Carolina fan in basketball LOL

This thread was made to poke fun at the SEC playing high school teams this week. You came in and told us all off by letting us know that Georgia Southern was serious business by telling us they aren't a joke and that they are the 3rd ranked D-2 team. I understand you are now going to try to spin your comment to make it seem like all you were pointing out was that they run the triple option, thus the rushing yards, but clearly with your other statements you truly believed in your heart of hearts that Georgia Southern deserved a head nod, if only for a few minutes!

I think Georgia Southern is better than the directional michigan schools, Kent, Akron, possibly BG. Would also take App State over those schools.

They completed 1 pass for 40 yards!!!! Lol.
So Alabama pretty much knew they were running the ball every play yet still gave up 302 yds?

Edit-Notre Dame football.

Edit #2 - SEC football.

D-2? Like it or not, Georgia Southern and the other top FCS schools would be right there with the bottom 25% of FBS.

Go look at the worst 30 teams in D-1 then come back and tell me how that strengthens the argument that Georgia Southern is a solid opponent.

It doesn't AT ALL say that GAS is a quality opponent. I never said that nor did anyone else. My point was that you tried to degrade them by calling them "D2", which BTW, is a slap in the face, when in-reality that's simply a choice. Competition-wise, it's similar competition to what almost every BCS school faces 2-3 times every season.

I mean Ohio State played Akron. Akron is the worst team in FBS. Them being on the schedule is an automatic "silencer" when talking about any other team's schedule. That's all.

Oh, I'm sorry that I called Georgia Southern a division 2 school. What is the appropriate terminology for a division 2 football team?

There is a HUGE difference between FCS and D-2, especially a program with the tradition of Georgia Southern.

Ok, so should I refer to them as D-1 1/2 from now on?

No, because they are Division 1...

Division 2 is a lower level which includes the likes of Ohio teams Findlay, Ashland, Ohio Dominican, etc...

It's a huge step down from FCS.

Just so I completely understand the situation here, you are arguing with me because I offended you by calling Georgia Southern D-2?

I have no ties to Georgia Southern. Nor did I say they weren't a cupcake. I just said it's laughable that there are fans on here discussing them as an opponent when they are no different than the same cupcakes every BCS team has played twice or more this year. That's all.

Your reading comprehension skills are laughable. Go back and observe the first post in this thread, read over the scores at the time of this thread being started, then go ahead and slap yourself across the face a few times.

I was just pointing out that Alabama #1 ranked scoring defense gave up 302 yds rushing and 21 points to a cupcake not that no other BCS teams schedule cupcakes.

Georgia Southern is a cupcake. But I can't tell if you really know the difference between FCS and Division II. Do you understand that Ga Southern is not a Division II team?

That's what I was wondering and one reason why I kept responding. From a logistical standpoint, there is a HUGE difference in the level of competition. Far greater than FBS and FCS.
