You can lose and still play for the natl championship, but you cannot be destroyed and play for the national championship
Ohio State lost at home last year by 2 touchdowns to a Virginia Tech team that went 7-6. So I guess you're just totally fricking clueless.

Although I think we can get in and the losses we need will happen I also realize that LSUs brand of football is just not good TV. Everyone loves points and air attacks we are slow down grind em up football team even Bama who runs it's as aggressive as us has thrown double the a month of pass attempts.
I think we could pass up some one loss teams but we need to look exciting in these next games. I mean we need three straight Auburn type of dominant performances. Big runs. 50 yard TDs. Big returns. Pick 6's. I'm 2011 style of football 45-14 wins. That would impress voters and then they could justify putting us in. 35-27 wins ain't gonna cut it.

First, let me say that human polls are crap. They are too subjective which is why the BCS used the computer rankings as a component. Proof to me was discussion last year on whether or not Ohio State "deserved" to be in after they lost their starting QB. frick that. You should get in based on your body of work, not the stupid "eye test" or a group of peoples opinion on what they think will happen in the playoffs.
I say all of that to preface this statement: LSU will not got in unless they win the SEC. Period. Pollsters do stupid shite like dropping LSU to 9 after a road loss to a top 5 team and move a team like Iowa up because they are undefeated against a pitiful schedule. Fournette and Boykin have one bad game each and go from front runners for the Heisman to not even in the top 3. LSU lost badly, everyone was watching. Plus, they have made it a point to say that winning your conference championship is important. The ONLY slightly plausible scenario is if LSU wins out, Florida loses to Florida State and then beats Alabama in Atlanta, leaving LSU as the only one-loss SEC team who beat the SEC Champs head-to-head.
LSU wins out, Alabama loses to Moo State. THAT is your path to the Playoffs.

You need to go back and look at that game for a reality check. It was even. Ohio St actually had more yards and did it with their true freshman backup QB---but lost the turnover battle and threw a pick 6. They were not dominated and they were not destroyed or manhandled, like Bama did to us.
