Paywall.
Also I don’t consider a team that for all intents and purposes controls it’s own destiny a spoiler

Still paywall. Either copy what you want us to read or let the thread die

Even if there are some increasingly awesome quarterbacks among the current batch of likely title contenders, others are more than capable of ruining someone's plans.
Tennessee's Joe Milton III still has an all-time cannon for an arm, even if he's still figuring out how to use it effectively, and the Volunteers -- who have one loss themselves (and are therefore not eliminated from title contention just yet) -- get shots at both Alabama and Georgia in the coming weeks. Ole Miss' Jaxson Dart is on pace for 3,500 passing yards and has already completed 32 passes of 20-plus yards. He and the Rebels play Georgia in November.
Maryland's Taulia Tagovailoa is also on pace for 3,500 yards and gets November home upset opportunities against Penn State and Michigan. UCLA's Dante Moore is young and (increasingly) inconsistent, as one would expect from a true freshman, but his blue-chip arm remains a weapon, and the one-loss Bruins, who are in no way out of the Pac-12 championship race yet, get a shot at USC in mid-November.
In terms of upsets and chaos potential, however, no one holds a candle to LSU's Daniels.
The senior from San Bernardino, California, has become the scariest dual-threat in the country, and he painted his masterpiece Saturday in Columbia, Missouri. In the second half alone, Daniels completed 10 of 13 passes for 189 yards and two scores and rushed seven times for 97 yards and another touchdown. After an early deficit against 5-0 Missouri, he gave LSU its first lead with a 42-yard pass to Brian Thomas Jr. When Mizzou took the lead back, he rushed for a 35-yard score on third-and-3 to seize it again.
At least two defenders thought they had the angle on him and were proven horribly, horribly wrong. Still, Mizzou responded again, and Daniels did the same, with a five-play, 75-yard drive and a 29-yard touchdown pass to Malik Nabers. Finally, the host Tigers blinked, and Major Burns' late pick-six sealed a 49-39 win.
Daniels finished with 259 passing yards and 134 rushing yards (not including two sacks). He's now on pace for more than 4,000 of the former and 1,000 of the latter. Granted, LSU is only guaranteed one more shot at a title contender -- and that's only if you consider Alabama a contender -- but if the Tigers beat the Tide, they could still be well-positioned to defend their West division crown and earn another shot at Georgia. LSU's defense almost certainly isn't good enough to damage the Dawgs' attack (we'll see about Bama's), but you simply do not want any sort of hopes or dreams to hinge on having to stop Daniels. He's too dangerous right now.

How do you not have ESPN+? We're going to be on it every year for at least one or two games

Exactly

I was about to ask the same thing, lol

Basically says JD is unstoppable right now to stop. On pace for 4k passing and 1k rushing. Craziness to think about btw.

I was discussing for a conference championship but I would argue that we in fact do control our destiny for a national championship as well.
In a scenario where we win out who is going to keep out the SEC champion who just beat number 1 Georgia?

An 11-2 SEC Champ should be second to only an undefeated Big10 Champ.
ACC and PAC12 champ is going to have at least one loss, and anyone who puts any stock in the PAC12 is a moron.

A 1 loss UGA.

An 11-2 SEC Champ should be second to only an undefeated Big10 Champ.
OU and Texas (one at 13-0 or both at 12-1), Oregon, Washington or USC (1 at 11-1, one at 12-1 and one at 13-0), Michigan, tOSU, or Penn St. (1 at 11-1, one at 12-1 and one at 13-0) will get in.
Georgia, if beaten by a two loss LSU, would be considered a fluke, and Georgia might still get in, but the SEC is weak this year, and if UT/OU play another classic like they did this past weekend for the Big 12 championship, they may both make the playoffs. Same goes for the Pac 12 and Big Ten this year.
LSU, out of all the teams mentioned, even winning the SEC, would not get in this year.

All predictions say otherwise.

We don't even for the SEC West, do you people not understand what controlling your own destiny means?

We could win out and not even be the SEC West champs.
And if we do win out and there is an undefeated PAC-12 (USC, Washington, or Oregon), Big 12(Oklahoma), Big10(Ohio State, Michigan, or Penn St,), and ACC champ that beat us(FSU), do you really think we get in.
I'm a pumper and even I don't have P&G glasses shaded that dark. A two-loss LSU, even as the SEC champ, with the narrative going on that the SEC is down will need a lot of help to get a berth in the CFP.

“For all intents and purposes”
