re: Bowl Projections : Looks like LSU vs. Iowa in Outback

I agree with SC to the Cap One. They travel well and the Cap One typically will pass on the SECCG loser when they can.

If Mizzou loses, they might just be the Cotton selection - safety net aside. And I don't see the Outback taking Mizzou anyway.

LSU needs Mizzou to win and hope the Cap One wants Auburn over SC.

There is a lot working against LSU to the Cotton.

I think its the opposite. If auburn wins, I think LSU is locked into cotton. If Cap1 takes USCe, the outback will jump on a 10 win mizzou. If Cap1 takes mizzou, outback will take USCe and Cotton will take LSU as per usual east/west ties.

If mizzou wins, Cap1 has to pick between auburn and USCe. If they take USCe then auburn goes to cotton by default with the safety net rule and we go to Outback. If they take auburn (which I suspect they will) then normal east/west ties come in and Cotton gets LSU and outback gets USCe.
