Why is our fanbase such whiny bitches? Everyone outside of the USA today twitter has said that LSU is in no matter what and you jump on that one tweet.

As soon as you realize LSU is a Tier 2 team, you will understand why this is all being said.

LSU is NOT a team that can't win the Division/Conference and make the playoff.

LSU is NOT a team that can win out and hold it's place at Number 1. That's for Tier 1 teams only.

Want to make yourself happy? Quit reading this stuff. By now, you should already know what they will say.

If both Utah and Oklahoma win, LSU will be out. They will not keep out 2 1- loss conference champs to put us in.

I believe they will put Utah in and have OU play LSU in the Sugar.

We lose we are out. I don't agree with it, but it would happen.

Based upon what I've seen from the committee so far, I tend to agree. They will shift their narrative to "conference championships matter" and we would drop out of the top 4.

The committee will try and frick us over. You can bet on that. We have to win Saturday and take it out of their hands. I don't like being at their mercy.

Win the freaking SEC and it doesn't matter.

And, yes, I agree that LSU would be left out with a loss.

The amount of disrespect LSU still receives is incredible. Can you imagine Alabama, Notre Dame, USC, or Texas having our resume with a Heisman leading QB and record setting offense and not being #1?

And I agree - with a loss, LSU is out of the playoffs. It's ridiculous to even consider it, but the committee has made it abundantly clear that they have little interest in treating LSU fairly.

With the way the committee is inconsistently dropping teams, I wouldn’t feel comfortable to lose and leave it up to them to keep LSU in. It simple, with 3 more games. Quit worrying about rankings

On the CFP Rankings show last night, the ESPN panel was literally laughing at the idea of Clemson being left out if they lose to Virginia. We're talking the same Clemson with the schedule that they have. They also all agreed that LSU would still be in, even with a loss to UGA. I'm not very concerned, but I agree that I'd rather not leave LSU at the mercy of the committee.

Guys, chill.

Everyone with a brain and eyes knows LSU is in the playoffs, win or lose.

Just look at the schedules and data.

100%
