Florida and SC are both going to be tough games but as long as we don't get blown out, it seems all we need to do is win one of them. Texas A&M is no push over but I think we win that one. It still comes down to Bama no matter what and that will be an emotion game in which I expect we play the best game of the year (like 2008, 2009, and 2010).

If we manage to pull out what I expect to be a close game no matter what, we have MSU, Ole Miss, and Arky all of which should be wins. Then we finish with the SECCG against potentially the team (UF or SC) that beat us. Hard to imagine a 12-1 SEC Champ that beat every team on its schedule were to be left out.

Obviously we have bigger issues right now than worrying about the NC, but point is if we lose to UF (or SC) I think we are in the same boat as if we win both.

No. We need 2 of the next 2.

1 out of 2 works if we beat Bama. Absolutely.

Well that was a well laid out counter argument with lots of thoughtful explanation as to why you disagree with my post. Thanks.

And 2 of 2 probably doesn't matter if we lose to Bama.

Maybe, but we want 2. Especially considering they're against Menstruelcramp and the old-balls coach.

You could at least give a logical explanation as to why you disagree.

Yeah Matt, I think you need to make this part clear before you get pounced on. But I agree, although it would be agonizing.

We need 2 out of 2 like a fat kid needs cake. We don't really need it but our minds are already made up that we'll die if we don't get it.

I agree with the OP. In my office pool I had us winning every game except South Carolna at home, and then playing them again in the SEC Championship. I stand by this prediction. That being said I picked LSU and Tennessee in the SECCG back in the spring so who the hell really knows..

And I will put it another way...if LSU had to lose one game the rest of the year, it would 100% be one of the next 2 games for lots of reasons.

Either way, we'll probably have to beat Bama twice.....again....to win a national championship.

Depends on your goal. If it's win the NC you need to go undefeated. A one loss team from the SEC won't get in over an undefeated Oregon/FSU/big 12 champ
