re: End of the year CFP Hypothetical per the committee tonight. Chick said LSU means Chaos

Just take it one week at a time and pull for the games that matter. This week, those games are:

LSU over Arkansas (convincingly)
Alabama over Ole Miss in a tight game
Texas over TCU, preferably in a blowout
Florida State over Syracuse

All of those help LSU's case and there is a great chance that this is how these games go this weekend. If so, LSU creeps up to #6. The Florida State game does not have a direct impact, but it helps make the opening loss look a little better. Now for a little lagniappe:

Washington over Oregon
Miss St over Georgia
Mizzou over Tennessee

If Oregon loses (plus a TCU loss), LSU should move up to #5, just one spot out of the playoffs with 3 more weeks (including the conference championship games) of potential chaos to move up to #4. Mizzou damn near beat Georgia earlier in the year, so anything is possible and another loss by Tennessee would remove them as a threat. Miss State can hang, but it is highly unlikely that they will and, frankly, a Georgia loss isn't vitally important. I have a feeling that if LSU were to beat them in Atlanta, the committee would have a hard time keeping out an SEC Champ LSU for the team that they just beat head to head.
