Ok, so someone who tells the truth is dumb? So you tell me smart guy? How else can LSU make it to the SECCG if auburn doesn't lose another game?

Youre the dumbass.

And that is all.

I don't care to read all that, the point is- the only way (theoretically) that we go to the SECCG is:

1) Win out ***AND***
2) Aubie drops another game.

That's it.


Nope. We could finish in a 3-way tie with Auburn and A&M and possibly win it, although that's not controlling our own destiny.

Yes.

And Auburn controls its own destiny if Alabama wins this weekend...


No. They need either a 2nd loss for A&M or a 3-way tie that they somehow win.

And LSU controls its own destiny if Arkansas wins this weekend...


Yes.

quote:

So, in order to be the ONLY team left controlling its own destiny by this time next week, we need the Aggies to win, the Piggies to win, and us to win.


No. A&M would still control its own destiny in that case, too. We cannot become the ONLY team that controls its own destiny this week. The A&M-Bama game is irrelevant to us in that regard, because whoever wins that game still controls their own destiny.

Did I get that right?


Half right. (2/4)

If auburn beats arkansas then the ole miss game won't hurt if lsu loses.


What? Of course it will hurt. We will have to stay at one loss in order to be able to force a tie with the Alabama/A&M winner if they don't lose any other games.

If Arkansas beats auburn then an lsu loss to ole miss will so depressing that lsu nation will Be oppressed and never recover.


I'm pretty sure losing to Ole Miss will be depressing no matter what happens with Arkansas and Auburn.

You sure you want lsu to control destiny?


Um, yes. Why in hell would any LSU fan NOT want LSU to control its own destiny?

Seriously dude. Do you really not get this?

LSU can win out.
Auburn can win out.
A&M can win out with the exception of losing to LSU.

That creates a 3-way tie, which any of the three teams could possibly win. It would depend on other factors that we don't know yet, possibly how all our SEC East opponents do the rest of the way.

Definitely winning out and having Auburn lose is by far our best chance, but it is at least POSSIBLE for us to win the division without Auburn losing any more games.

Everything else before that last line lays out a pretty far fetched scenario the way I read it. Thanks for helping make my case!
