re: Florida State’s scheduling sleaziness could cost LSU

FSU game has had zero effect on LSU as of right now. Were #5.
If we won that game and got blown out in the UT game and there were 4 undefeated P5 teams, we'd still be #5...

Those rankings are fluid. If USC finishes the season beating 3 ranked teams in a row and only having 1 loss, they very easily could jump a 2 loss LSU even if they beat Georgia.
PLUS. If LSU only had 1 loss right now, there would be realistic scenarios where they possibly get in even with a loss to Georgia.

The FSU opener was a learning experience...for the players and judging by the end of the Bama game, especially for CBK.
It's fun to go back and look at how opposing fans (and some of our own) were LOUDLY crushing him after that game. Those folks sure are a lot harder to hear now.

"Zero" effect? That's not exactly true. We are not guaranteed that TCU loses a game, neither are we guaranteed to pass the Michigan/Ohio State loser. People keep forgetting that we aren't just #5, and therefore an automatic to take the place of the next loser. We are a 2 loss team looking up at 4 undefeated teams. We can't be sure of how much help we need. To me, TCU's weak schedule makes them the team to pass if they lose the Big 12 championship, but we don't know if they'll actually lose.
But if (and it doesn't matter now that it's in the past; but for the sake of discussion) LSU had beaten FSU we would be entirely in control of our own destiny, without any questions.
