If Cam is ruled ineligible, do pollsters see LSU as undefeated?

no they'd still have 2 losses

Huh? LSU has one loss. I'm talking about this next week. Do the pollsters treat that loss differently when they rank teams?

But we lost to Tennessee before we beat them. So that still counts as a loss in some peoples eyes.

I doubt it.
They so far up TCU's arse right now.

How about Brian Kenny said on ESPN 2 hours ago..."if Newton is guilty then TCU and Boise has a good chance at the NC....sorry LSU".

WTF!!!!!!???? who are these fricking people??? LSU's schedule is the 5th hardest right under Auburn at #2 and Arky at #3 while Oregon's, Boise's, and TCU's schedules aren't even in the fricking top 50!!!! This shite is BANANAS

It was said that a one loss Alabama could jump the undefeated non-AQs. If so, then LSU's loss should be seen as a half-loss or at least as favorably as Alabama's 14 pt. loss to S. Carolina.


I think you could make a case for this, similar to Les' "only team to not lose in regulation" statement in 2007.

The black eye that this fiasco will give the SEC will all but make it impossible for LSU to get a shot at the BCSNC.

As the season continues people have to start looking at quality wins and SOS. Unless they simply want to hand the BCSCG to TCU or Oregon. How many teams have TCU, Bosie, and Oregon played that have a winning record?

LSU has the #5 toughest schedule in the country and should be 9-1 after this weekend. Do the pollsters take into account that our only loss was by 7 at home to a team with a now ineligible player if indeed Cam has to sit?


Could we jump into the top 2 even with the one loss? How do you think the polls will see this IF Cam is ruled ineligible and Auburn has to vacate wins?

What will be interesting is how the computers would treat the situation.

I have doubts that the the coaches poll would put both TCU and the Boise State in the BCSNG, if there is a one-loss team from BCS conference. I would think that the coaches would want the game to have some credibility, and TCU v. Boise State would not. I don't think the coaches are so keen to destroy the BCS's credibility (although I know there are some who don't like the system). It might happen, but it seems more like something the pot-stirrers in the sports press are more interested in than the coaches themselves.

I don't think Fox(correct me if I'm wrong) would be too keen about a TCU-Boise St. BCSCG either.

Also, IF this goes down and the Auburn loss gets dropped, and we win out(SECCG included), there's no way in hell an undefeated SEC champ gets left out of the title game. IMO, the SEC champ should be automatically in the title game until someone can beat them.
