re: So are we mathematically eliminated pending 2 loses by Bama or A&M?

Technically it could work to LSU's advantage if they were 6-1 and others were 6-2. Need Auburn to lose another, they will, need Ags and Gumps to lose one more besides LSU, very possible and one is guaranteed. Not saying LSU wins out, but if they do I like their chances and this unexpected bye comes at a good time for the players. Just trying to look on the bright side, clearly negatives exist as well, but if LSU ends up with three L's, they aren't going anywhere but a bowl game anyway, even as SEC champs and this hasn't changed from last Sunday.
