LSU presser at 1:30 Today to announce Canada as OC

As an alumnus, you have to keep it in perspective. I get that LSU has the bigger athletic program. However, I can't help but feel bemused when you take the whole picture into account and see that Pitt is superior to that shit school in the south. Pitt has a $2.1 billion operating budget compared to LSU who is around $1.2 billion. Academic rankings are no comparison. Petty rant? Sure. I admit it. It just sucks to lose to an inferior school because you are not as good as it is in one subset of university life that should not be a priority.

Its not a great U its a football and basketball factory.
We have two mfg plants in Baton Rouge and I used to go their a lot.
The Baton Rouge locals cant wait to go to Thunder Valley to watch football and they love LSU basketball.
Almost anyone can get in LSU. Lots of commuter students. Not a lot of high quality kids from other states knocking down the doors to get in except for football and basketball players!
 
Oh god. Now we are going here. Lmao

Yes I am. As I said, I admit that it's petty and reeks of the Fox with the sour grapes message. But I can always hold my head high that my alma mater didn't cover up gross criminal activities of a most heinous nature. We at least have that going for us.
 
i will give lsu credit on one thing. they took a chance on hiring ed as the head coach but they went out and spent money on two good assistants to help ed out. smart.

In all facets but athletics, Pitt is the better school. Hey, I told you I was being petty. You can still be petty and truthful at the same time. :)

They do have a lazy river in the shape of the letters L, S, and U. Who cares about academics when you have that.
