If we beat Florida, we’d still be in the hunt.

I know I know, can’t live in what ifs. Just frustrating seeing how all the games have unfolded the last two weeks. We basically got all the help we would’ve needed (SC over Mizzou, OU over Bama, UF over Ole Miss, and AU over A&M) The only help we’d need this week would be A&M OR Vandy winning. Mathing based on current game spreads, Vegas puts the probability that at least one of those wins at 57%. Odds put LSU winning over OU at around a 67% chance of winning.

In other words, anything can happen, but LSU probably wins and one of teams we need to lose probably loses. Wouldn’t be crazy to think that had we beaten Florida, we’d be in the SEC championship. Everything else has lined up.

Tl;dr- The college football gods gave us our shot and ofc we had to shoot ourselves in the foot with it

Losing to a&m hurt us on and off the field.

2nd half until end of Fl game, 2 1/2 games of humiliating embarrassment. Team did not bother to show up.
No way should one of the bottom half of teams in the SEC be a part of the discussion.

We’d be in 100% had we beaten UF and then win out. We’d play the Texas/A&M winner regardless

We win and aggy lose and all other favorites win we can finish 5th. They can still finish first or drop to 7

The LSU University (That's University of LSU OPPOSITE in recognition of Saturdays White-Canary Yellow-White OPPOSITE circus clown uniforms)

The Tigers just couldn't handle Sunbelt Bayou Billy Boy. (Pathetic and Pitiful)

Actually everything worked out for LSU. If they had won versus Florida all LSU had to do was beat OU this week and they play for the SEC Championship.

Yeah but I don't like our chances in the playoff. Don't mind losing so much as getting embarrassed. This team is no where near ready to compete at that level.

This team is not very good and has no business being in the playoffs. The ending of the season will be a relief.

Better having one playoff game and a blowout, than having no chance at all for advancement

UF over Ole Miss


I don't think Florida beats Ole Miss if they had lost to LSU. Florida's mindset would have been totally different.

Beating a team while having a 10 point lead in the 3rd Q that puts in the second string QB is asking way too much of this staff.

Then you expect them to beat Sunbelt Billy after getting gang raped at home to a shitty Bama team?

C'mon man. Your expectations are way too high. BK and this staff just need another 3-5 years to be able to beat inferior teams consistently. You are asking for WWWAAAAYY too much.

Losing to a crappy USC team on a neutral field more worse than losing a road game at Florida!
