Pretty decent chance we end up in a BCS Bowl. Still a chance at BCSNCG!

Current BCS Standings:

1. Alabama
2. Kansas St
3. Oregon
4. Notre Dame
5. Georgia
6. Florida
7. LSU

Let's Delve deeper. Assuming we win out.

2. Kansas St still has TCU, Baylor, Texas
3. Oregon still has Stanford, Oregon State, and the PAC-12 CG
4. Notre Dame still has Boston College, Wake Forest, and USC
5. Georgia still has Auburn, Georgia Southern, Georgia Tech and possible SECCG.
6. Florida still has ULL, Jacksonville St, FSU, and possible SECCG.


What does it all mean? As we stand today UGA will play Bama in the SECCG. After they lose we move up past them. Florida would have to drop any one of their 3 remaining games. That would move us into 5.

All that would need to happen is any one of the undefeated teams to lose and hope our computer score bumps us to 4th. 4th place or higher in the BCS gets an automatic BCS bowl bid.
EDIT (Thanks Golfer): - All conference champions (including non AQ's in the top 12)
- ND in the top 8
- The #3 team has been placed

Now if all hell breaks loose circa 2007, WE ARE IN!

Have faith my brethren, we got this!

I totally agree and think there is a bigger chance of this happening than most people think.

The Mettsiah will rise...

Where is this coming from all of a sudden? We have NO chance of a NC. 07 was completely different, everyone had at least one lose most had 2.

Still a lot of ball left to be played with our schedule getting easier with the rest of those teams having tough games and Conference championship games. Have faith my man.

I guess it's possible but rsalistically I'm just hoping for a BCS bowl. I'm hoping LSU doesn't have a hangover from this game and lose any more.

Me too. LSU/ND in the sugar is my dream matchup this season now.

We just need to finish strong if for nothing else, recruiting purposes.

Easily my second game I want to see. Then us vs Oregon again.

After that, really do not care.

Was that gif around in 2007? If so I hope it was used then.

Doubt it, but possible. I was honestly really frustrated last night and wanted to give up on the season. Some trolls made me realize how great our team is and we still have a lot to fight for.

I'll be watching and rooting for as many losses as possible.

Hopefully Bama drops one and misses out too. That would ease the sting a little. Especially if we somehow got our rematch in a different bowl game.

The only way that happens is if by some magic they literally drop and if that happens I am going to have to reconsider my fandom of LSU . Why? Because I don't support teams who have coaches that makes deal with satan!

No it does not. It CAN get us an auto bid if the following is satisfied before:

- All conference champions (including non AQ's in the top 12)
- ND in the top 8
- The #3 team has been placed

Anything is possible but I don't see us getting the mulligan like Bama did last year. Even though our schedule thus far has been tougher than theirs, we won't get the nod even if those above us lose. Now if Bama loses two and ther others have two losses, yeah, we could move up and play for NC.

If nothing else that game put the CFB worls on notice that LSU is not quite ready to be buried yet.

Mett came of age in that game last night. When I think of how young this team is it makes me smile.

I can't recall any off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's been worse.

If we can't play in the champ game, I hope it's ND vs alabama and bama beats them 75-0
