Neutral field of course and lets say roughly equal travelling distance. You don't have to subtract 4 teams that will make the playoffs.

This is a great question. Wouldn't it really stir the pot if this was a criteria for the playoff selection committee?

Um

Florida, Wisconsin, Bama just to name a few. Pretty much the teams ranked ahead of us except the sorry conference ones.

According to a Vegas tweet I saw yesterday, only Ohio State and Alabama are guarantee favorites over LSU

Bama
Ohio State
Michigan

USC possibly
Oklahoma possibly

All teams with defenses in the top 50 or so.

Not many. Outside of the playoff 4 I don't see anyone who would be favored to beat lsu. I hope to God we get matched up with florida state somehow so we can piledrive their frickin asses in the Bowl game. Them or wisconsin...we would murder wisconsin if we played then again. But wisconsin will most likely be in a ny6 bowl. Florida state has 3 losses so we could relistically get matched up with them.

It doesn't matter who is favored; it matters who wins.

Today

Clemson
Ohio State

Wisconsin would be an interesting line. I bet it would be LSU -3

You'll have some idiots in here claiming only Bama, but probably the following:

Bama
tOSU
Michigan
Clemson
Wisconsin
USC
UF*

*They beat us with a ton of injured players. If healthy, LSU's mistakes won't be the reason they lost.

Only 1 was this season. We lost 3 others we were favored to win.
