LSU jumped to the top b/c of the "eyeball" test, namely our dominating win against VT
the domination might have been eyeball test, but i think the decision was more about a head to head win. i think if we'd beaten them by a TD, we still would have gotten in.

and UGA? no
UGA had a comparable regular season to ours, were playing unquestionably better than we were at the end of the season and had the same regular season record. we won the conference champ game and thus had a better record...overall body of work > UGA's which is why the voters jumped us over them. It certainly wasn't because we were so convincing in that game. But if I was voting based on eyeball test, even after the SECCG, i'd have voted UGA.

there were multitudes of comparisons of UF and Cal
Well, I admitted losses were in the discussion, but they were always second to overall resume. Our wins got us there in 03 more than USC's loss kept them out.

The other thing in LSU's favor over UGA in 2007 was that we won out conference.

well that isn't a consistent judgment variable, either. look at 1 year later with UT-OU

i think you're using a different definition of "eyeball" test than i am, b/c you're thinking of it in terms of only at the end
i am not

well honestly the argument in 2003 was really OU v. USC. LSU was pretty much in regardless
