There's been a poster on this board who has said for 6 freaking weeks 20 gets us in. TIGAHLOVAH. Now, me screaming this for a month and a half doesn't guarantee I'm right, but that would total NINE quadrant 1 wins, probably tops in the country. A couple projections have us first and next 4 out NOW. I see no way we are left out if we lose on sunday.

The Q1 wins situation is very fluid. Right now Arkansas has a 30 RPI. If they lose their first game in the SECT that likely drops them out of the top 30 and in the process, takes away a Q1 win for LSU. Now, Mizzou sits at 33. If they can win in the SECT, they likely jump into the top 30, giving LSU a Q1 win.
20 wins in and of itself isn't some magic number. It's WHO you beat. MSU would be a good, but not great win. Tenn. would be a HUGE win. Florida/Arkansas would be a great win. But if, say, South Carolina gets hot and makes a run to the semi-finals a LSU win (which would be their 20th) wouldn't be a great win.
Outside of winning the tournament, the perfect scenario for LSU would be to beat State, then Tenn., then Florida/Arkansas and lose to UK/Auburn in the finals. A four game stretch of wins vs. State, Tenn, South Carolina, and loss to say, Bama, wouldn't be nearly as good.
