The Experts right now are saying "If LSU wins blah blah"

They are asking if LSU beats Alabama should they jump a undefeated Kansas State, Notre Dame, or Oregon.

LSU would have beat #1 Alabama, lost to #7 Florida, and beat #8 South Carolina. Show me a better resume between Notre Dame, Kansas State, and Oregon at the moment.

I'm not saying we win we should jump to 1st. I think we should at least jump 1 or 2 of them though.

Current BCS Standings:

1. Alabama
2. Kansas State
3. Notre Dame
4. Oregon
5. LSU
6. Georgia
7. Florida
8. South Carolina
9. Florida State
10. Louisville

Granted Oregon plays a ranked USC this week and Kansas State play a ranked Oklahoma State. Can't really fault a team for winning, even if the schedule is weaker.

If LSU wins out, that will also mean we would have to beat a top 5(?) Georgia team....

We don't want them all to lose, though. We don't want to have to play Bama again in the championship

I wouldnt have us ahead any of them right now. We lost a game. We haven't gotten any style points at all. Our offense looks meh.

I love my Tigers and think they can go to the ship, but at this point in the game, I think even if we beat Bama we only move up 1 spot (unless others lose).

I think the jump would not happen unless we make it and win the SECCG.

Doesn't matter right now.

Okie State will upset K state
Oregon will destroy USC and finish 13-0
USC will shock Notre Dame
The SEC champ (probably 13-0 Bama) will still play for and win the national title

99.99% won't happen this year..

The thing that hurt Oklahoma State last year was the Big12 not having a championship game..

The Pac 12 in Oregon has a Pac 12 Title..

Beating a #1 team will obviously do wonders for LSU in the BCS, but without flashy numbers and non-impressive wins against lower competition,
there's no way LSU is in the top 2 (unless multiple teams ahead of them lose of course)

And none of those teams have a comparable schedule to LSU.

Another Chaos Theory right now..

USC upsets Oregon this weekend..
USC upsets Notre Dame..
USC beats Oregon in the Pac12 Title.

USC would have just beat what is currently 2 of the top 5, 3 times.. Could they jump up.. Especially with the love ESPN has for USC.

Could it be a 1 Loss LSU vs a 2 Loss USC in the Title game?

I was hoping this would have been a Undefeated Florida team.. I wanted Florida has highly ranked as possible if we played them in the SECCG.

Notre Dame will have beaten 3 top 10 teams and 5 top 20 teams if they go undefeated.
