Wouldn't matter. The toss dive extravaganza that caused us to lose two games omitted us from contention this year.
Had we spread the field from game one, we would be in if we had run the gauntlet.
I'm not in the group that thinks we're automatically in, but I believe we'd have a chance, depending on how convincing our performances are. The committee would not want egg on their faces letting a conference champion in with more than one loss that subsequently craps out considering that there would be a number of 1 loss teams that could have gone. I also think that having one less win because of UF hurts us as well.

My point is that winning was not an option using the 1975 Bo Schembechler offense. Everyone knew what we were going to do and it showed by putting 8-9 in the box.

You don't automatically win but it sure increases your chances to not try running into a wall when everyone knows it is coming. See results since changing to O and Ensminger.

We are not in with two losses. Ohio state got the one loss and only dropped to 6th. This is so they can put them in if anyone above them loses. The committee loves them some Ohio stae. The committee does not love LSU.

The fact that Foley was allowed to skate out on playing that weekend is a black eye to the spirit of competition. Sankey should have sat him down and made him choose one of the ten options LSU presented.
