re: So if MSU beats the Hogs we clinch, correct?

in 2003, we still had to beat Arkansas. LSU & Ole Miss each only had 1 loss heading into the final week. If we lose to Arky and Ole Miss beats State, which they did, Ole Miss would have gone.

In 2007, people are right, we clinched when we beat ole miss. Auburn already had 3 losses going into the final weekend.

2005, LSU and Auburn each only had 1 loss & LSU had the tie-breaker by way of John Vaughn's 5 missed field goals. Still had to beat arky at the end of the year
