During ESPN's Get Up on Wednesday morning, College Football analysts Paul Finebaum and Heather Dinich talked about LSU's potential path to the College Football Playoff as a two-loss team if they were to win out. Per On3:

“There certainly is, and it’s a historic path,” Heather Dinich said. “Because if they run the table and win the SEC, they would become the first two-loss team to finish in the selection committee’s top-four.”
Finebaum added that LSU won a National Championship back in 2007 as a two-loss team...
quote:

“It would be amazing,” Paul Finebaum said. “And Brian Kelly left Notre Dame because he wanted to come south and beat Nick Saban and compete for a national championship. He didn’t feel like he could do that.”

“And, by the way, Greenie, I’m not arguing in front of the Supreme Court here, but there is some convoluted precedent for what LSU could do. In 2007, when we had the BCS, LSU lost twice. They lost twice in overtime. Still won the SEC and still won the national championship under Les Miles.”

Kentucky had Andre Woodson who was a heisman candidate at the time. Both Kentucky and Arkansas were ranked around 17 at the time we played them. "Garbage" is a bit dramatic.
