Not that I think we lose but what if the following would happen..

LSU loses to Arkansas dropping us to 3rd and putting Bama in the SEC championship game.

Bama then loses to Georgia leaving Arkansas at 1 and LSU at 2

Then you would have 2 teams from the same conference that didn't even win their division, playing for it all. Would the BCS be changed if this happened.

I still believe we run the table. 14-0.

That is correct....If LSU loses to Arky, and Bama somehow wins the tiebreaker, and Bama loses to Georgia in the SECCG, it will indeed be LSU vs Arkansas in the BCSCG and Georgia in the Sugar Bowl.

Bama would be relegated to the Cap1 Bowl.

That said, if LSU loses to Arky, LSU will not fall out of the Top2, and thus will win the tiebreaker and represent the West in Atlanta.

I agree with this. I was just thinking how if the other way played out, it would be funny. You hear peoples complaints about 1 team playing for the BCSCG and not winning their conference. What would be said if 2 teams playing for it all and didnt even play in their conf championship game.
