re: I'm more optimistic about chances of team winning out

If we win out, there's a chance to play in the Sugar Bowl.

LSU, aTm, and Auburn would likely all have 3 losses. Not sure who'd they pick to go to New Orleans.

my guess is Auburn; they will have won the head-to-head and would be 9-3, we'd be 8-3. Slightest chance that our earlier loss to Bama would mean we're ranked ahead.

I expect the Cotton would want either LSU or A&M, the Sugar would want either LSU or Auburn.

Which of those would mean more hotels bought? I don't see LSU flooding the NOLA area with that, we'd drive down and come back.
