If we are dealing in the hypothetical that LSU loses on Friday, I think today was a bad day. We needed Oregon and Oklahoma to be ranked in the top five, because voters would not have moved LSU below Arkansas if Arkansas were ranked 5th or 6th prior to the game. But with them ranked 3rd, I could easily see the rankings being Bama, Arky, LSU after Arky and Bama wins next weekend.
Are you saying that if Arky is 2 in the polls and LSU is 3, that our computer advantage would outweigh that and still put us at 2 in the BCS?

Yes, I am saying that exactly. I think the human polls are much closer than computer polls, thus giving the computers more effective weight than their nominal "1/3"

2) It should be definite now that LSU could lose the SECCG to Georgia and finish 12-1 and easily make the NC game

I think Arkansas will be in the BCS title game if they beat LSU and Bama beats Auburn. That will move Arkansas up and they won't have to play UGA in the SECCG.

These are the three most important and correct statements in this thread IMO.
Beat Arky and we're all good. Lose, and we likely get left out and Bama Arkansas is the rematch we will see.
