If LSU wins out do they deserve to be in the playoffs?

Winning the West and getting into the SECCG is unlikely with losses to Auburn and Moo State, but if we end up winning out do you think LSU has a shot at making the playoffs? Clearly, this team is playing at a much higher level than they were in the beginning of the season but would winning out be enough to convince the playoff committee that LSU deserves to be there?

No. You can't dismiss the MSU and Auburn losses.

Not unless LSU wins the SEC. You can't keep out undefeated or 1 loss champs over a 2 loss team that didn't win their division.

Not really. Unless there is a massive meltdown among teams in the top ten.

We'd be a good enough team to be there but a whole lot of stuff, a whole lot of stuff that probably isn't going to happen,would have to happen before we get a spot in the top 4.
Stranger things have happened though

The whole purpose of the committee is to find the best teams by looking at the entire body of work. Right now, with 2 losses, I'll say we're out. But, I have said weeks ago that we are the best 2 loss team in the country. With a little help these last 3-4 weeks, and us winning out, we would have to be in heavy consideration for a 4 seed imo

No but we'll be in a good bowl game

If we win out, Orange bowl??

In another thread, it was discussed how we could win the West with 2 losses which is completely possible still. If that happens and we Geaux on to Win the SECC game, we will be in the playoff. The selection committee has to pick the SEC Champion...even with 2 losses

Not if we don't win the SEC. If everything breaks right and we end up SEC champions, they can't keep us out.

No, not unless miss st and auburn both lose one more

Crazier things have happened. Remember the November in 2011 that everyone melted down causing us to go to ATL and play the SECCG while a team we beat, in their house, sat at home and studied our play.
OH... and got a rematch in the NATTY???
If it can work against us... why could it not work for us.

Must win SECCG. Only route in and the odds are extremely remote.
Posted on 10/26/14 at 10:22 am to DirtyMike
Only if we somehow win the SEC. It OK though.

What if Miss State loses to Ole Miss and Alabama.
Alabama loses to LSU
Ole Miss loses to Auburn
Then all SECW teams would have 2 or more losses
