I understand we potentially would have 3 crystal balls, but how can we go undefeated, hypothetically, beat all but Bama convincingly not be the unanimous Champ with no "ifs" involved for once? If our current resume was any other team in the nation, the media would be promoting them as one of the best ever. But.....LSU has to beat Bama one more time to prove it....

And once we DO beat Bama again, what can ANYONE say that we are not one of the best ever. Leave no doubt Tigers, pounce!

This was true a few years ago, but the prevailing opinions have changed. Now LSU is THAT team that gets the benefit of the doubt, gets to play for the Natty with two losses, gets to play for the Natty even if it loses the SECCG, will be in the preseason top 5. In short, LSU is becoming the team that half the people identify with and the other half despise. Beat Bama and LSU will have morphed into Notre Dame circa 1975.

You make no sense. We beat Bama at their house. You are saying we have to beat Bama in the Dome "convincingly" to be the unanimous Champ?

If we win again by 9-6, that would not make your happy.

Look. If we don't play Bama and beat Okie St/VaTech in the Dome, there will be no doubt we are the champions due to the very fact we beat Bama already.

In 2003, LSU, USC and Okla did not play in the regular season and had very few common opponents. That was the issue. Not this year with LSU and Bama. Plus, Bama had home field.
