I know it's still way to early but my question is more about the hypothetical situation of winning the SEC and getting left out of the playoffs.

Personally I think if LSU runs the table they will NOT be penalized for the 2 losses. It will be painfully obvious to the selection committee that Miles and Cam were holding back this team.

Thought I would offer a positive spin.

If Ole Miss didn't take down Bama a few weeks back, that was our only hope. I dont see anyone else on the schedule giving Bama trouble.

Maybe Auburn just because it is the Iron Bowl.

If they win out in the SEC and AU losses one more conference game than we win the west.. Its pretty simple.....

If LSU wins out, they can win the SEC West, but it could come down to a coin flip due to tiebreakers. The Wisconsin loss has no real effect on winning the SEC.

If we win out and Auburn loses 1 more SEC game we win the West...

Give us a guarantee that we win the West, PJ. I want to feel comfortable about this thing going forward.

In theory, yes. I am pretty sure we will lose by one game and always have to think back on this year like "what could have been had Les been fired prior to the Auburn game."

Anything is possible with the team we saw last night, but our schedule is a bitch. But we won an NC with two losses, so yes, we can still win the SEC. Auburn is our only SEC loss and they will lose a number of SEC games.

Theoretically we can win the west.
Highly doubt we get in the playoffs as a two loss team.
Maybe blow out Bama and blow out UT in the sec championship game and we get in the playoffs. No way that will happen.

Here's what going to happen:

1. Michigan/Ohio State Winner has a spot
2. Washington is going to get a spot
3. Clemson is going to get a spot
4. Last spot is up for grabs - Ohio State/Michigan Loser. Louisville/Houston Winner. Wisconsin if they win out? Way down on the list is a 2 loss LSU if we happen to win out.

Wow...Spoiled much... Get with reality... THAT coach is gone... Nothing we can do about it now but move forward and take one game at a time and see how things turnout.........

Tennessee or TAM could give them problems

We don't need anyone to take down bama. If we beat them and win out we win the west.

Tennessee will play a a huge role this year. They play at A&M this week and host Alabama. Should by way of a miracle win those games, LSU is right back in the race.

Sorry but the selection committee will put the SEC champ in the playoffs, the backlash would be too big.

We dont need help we need to take care of our own business and we will be in the SEC championship.

We'd need bama to win the iron bowl if auburn wins out up until that point.
