As long as you beat Ga in the SEC championship game (and you get some help from Bama and another team beating Auburn along the way).

Not saying this will happen by any means, but a two loss LSU team could jump some 1 loss teams bc of our tough schedule.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in this scenario wouldn't Bama have to lose 3 conference games?

Eta: Or is it 2 games and LSU win the tie breaker? That made my head hurt.

I predict the NCFPlayoff will NOT have any 2 loss teams in it.

LSU isn't going 10-2 and I will bet good money on it. That being said, maybe the above scenario could happen but why even discuss it?

It is possible. Auburn was #2 with a 10-2 record and losses to Clemson and Ed Orgeron.

Nah. If LSU goes 10-2 and their only divisional loss is Auburn, Auburn needs to lose two. That means two of Bama, Miss St, or the others in the West would have to do it. This is basically what he's saying.

If Auburn had lost to another West team last year before they played Bama, then Bama would have already locked up the West before the Iron Bowl.

I think Miss St and Bama can/will beat Auburn, but we also so still have to beat Bama to even think about winning the West.

It did just 2 years ago.

Right now the money is on all of the teams that went last year, and then Ohio St is a 5th option.

If Shea gets going early and often for Michigan, they probably win the conference.

Seventh Washington

8th option would be Auburn if they can find a run game.

9th would be Miami if they can fix the QB efficiency.

10th is Wisconsin, best Go5, or Penn St

10-2 with losses to LaTech and Rice, but wins over Auburn, Bama and Georgia x 2...no playoffs?

Why don’t we just see how the season plays out?

amen to that. I've never understood all the predictions and what-if scenarios.

Just watch and enjoy the games. When November rolls around, then if we're still in the hunt we can get into a few what-ifs.

To win it all we may have to play Alabama twice and Georgia twice think about that . Alabama 2nd game would be in the playoffs.
