Alabama is definitely on the bubble, and without Mitchell, not on the good side of the bubble.
I think it's a must-win game for LSU. If Trent can't beat Bama in a high-stakes game at home, when they don't have Tony Mitchell, then this season is probably done. (if it's not already).

I disagree, but only from the standpoint that winning ONE out of Vandy, Bama and State wasn't a MUST, but important, in that it leaves a lot on the table for the rest of the season.
In order to keep 9-7, and that tiny flicker of an NCAA hope alive, they need to beat State or Alabama, and Alabama is definitely the more winnable of the two. That said, even losing on Saturday, while not IDEAL, is still not the end of the world. LSU is capable of beating State (or more directly, State is capable of losing to LSU), but I sure as hell wouldn't put money on it.
If not, still a reasonable shot to finish 7-9 or 8-8 by closing out the season well..... but, we CAN beat Alabama.... and it would be great for the kids' confidence if they did.
Up to them to get it done.

Good points made by most everyone in this thread but this statement is a big stretch. Having an RPI of 31 with a SOS of 15 and being a solid #8 seed in most of the brackets is far from being "not on the good side of the bubble". The bottom line is that Alabama is an NCAA lock at 9-7 in league and still has a decent shot of getting in even at 8-8 (although that could very well put them in one of the dreaded play in games.
