re: Blow out to Tennessee narrative

NO!
"The ONLY thing LSU can stand on is" the UT game two months prior was played by a far lesser LSU team than the one on the field in December. We would have just beaten the team that recently smacked Tennessee.

One argument is theoretical opinion. The other is reality. The Tennessee game is not being played again and Tennessee won the game...at LSU...convincingly

I absolutely want to see LSU in the CFP if they win the SEC Championship. But if you are going to put an Alabama team in the playoff in 2017 who didn't even reach the SEC championship game and an Ohio St. team who didn't reach the Big 10 championship game in 2016, then it is hard to say Tennessee should be left out in favor of a team they beat on the field.
