CBS discusses the outcome of a 3-way tie between LSU, Bama and Arky

if, and again if, Arky wins. It's pretty scary to think where the BCS would place us with a loss before the SEC championship game if Arky & Bama win out the next two games. I don't see how we could be rated above either team despite schedule strength and beating Bama by 3, but hope I'm wrong!

All I know is that this place would be a mad house. Baton Rouge might blow up.

Why can't you see?
We'd have beaten the future Pac-12 champ at a somewhat neutral site. #4 team.
The possible Big East Champ on the road.
Alabama on the road #3 team.
We still have the most impressive OOC schedule probably in the country. Not saying we're definitely in, but it's definitely possible, if not even more likely than not.

Our wins would most likely keep us above Arkansas, but behind Alabama (we would still go the SECCG, and then jump Alabama again). Neither team has any quality wins at this point in the season -- LSU has multiple quality wins. That's the difference.

Bama to SECCG. I really can't see arkansas jumping them.
If they beat UGA, they're in the BCS Championship to face Okie state. Sugar Bowl either picks us or arkansas again

But if the human poll counts for 2/3s of the BCS as stated by CBS, I can't see how both Bama and Arky would not pass us...Bama for sure and if Arky at #5 or 6 and they just beat us?

If we are within 5 spots of the bcs, head to head prevails.

So if arky jumps us, it's Bama, if they dont, we go.

It would be an all out Les hanging for starting Lee/JJ.

Where in the hell do get your logic??????
You can't see how Bama doesn't pass us? Really?
Add this factoid to your logic:
We beat Bama at Bama. Does that clear your vision?

So if arky jumps us, it's Bama, if they dont, we go.

It would really depend on how bad of a loss it was. If it was a really tight game, I think that we still go to the SECCG. Voters wouldn't move Arkansas above a team that beat them by 24 and it would still come out to the head to head with Bama. In addition, we're really strong in the computers and would still have wins over 2 top 5 teams to go along with the rest of our body of work.
None of this really matters anyway. Barring LSU playing their absolute worst and Arkansas playing flawlessly, there is no way that LSU drops that game. I know that the games have been pretty close between the schools over the past decade, but none of those games featured a team of the caliber of this season's LSU. Arkansas may be a good team this season, but they are not on the level of LSU and Bama. I think we win by 17+ and wouldn't be surprised if the game really got out of hand.

I'm sorry. But even if we lose to Arkansas we still go to sec champ? Why Wouldnt the first tie breaker be head to head?
