What's This About?
This post critiques what the author views as opportunistic ranking inflation of LSU and Missouri throughout the 2025 college football season. The argument suggests these teams were artificially maintained in rankings to help other SEC teams pad their resumes with 'ranked wins,' but are now dismissed as unrepresentative of the conference after finishing with losing bowl records (LSU 7-6, Missouri 8-5) and losing bowl games to non-SEC opponents. The post highlights perceived double standards in how the SEC narrative shifts based on conference self-interest.
