2 top 10 wins in the last month of season would almost assuredly put them at the top of the list of 3 loss teams to make the playoff.

Despite how disappointing last night was, season isn’t quite yet over.

Yea yea I know “this team is terrible, they aren’t winning shite!”

Ironically if the team plays all 4Q then I think we do have a chance. But because they gave up and the end ended up looking like it did, I think it’s over

They do, however 0-2 thus far this year against the top 10 at the time of play, And the other loss to Kentucky that will fall out of top 10 now. Plus Lane record against top 10 not great, but arguably most of the time with lesser talent. This year talent is equal or better and the same result is achieved. It would be nice to dust those two off but we shall see. Some glaring misses last night from my seats in Death Valley.

The next two teams are much better at generating pressure on the QB than Alabama and you saw how it works out for Leavitt in multiple games. Panic.

Also, are you seeing what Tennessee is doing to teams when they play at home? I don’t know how they lost to Texas other than MacIntyre wasn’t the starter at the time

Don't kid yourself. LSU's probably going to get waxed in both of those games.

if y'all win out, and it is certainly very possible; you'd need Ole Miss, Kentucky and South Carolina to each to lose one as well

Gamecocks probably lose to UGA

Ole Miss has Oklahoma and State left (gotta like the Reb's chances to win out)

Kentucky has Florida, Mizzou & Louisville -- all 3 of those could go either way

I think LSU could be selected over Kentucky (probably would not be fair, but wins over Texas and Tennessee would likely impress the committee enough to push Tigahs over them despite head to head); but I don't think you'd get the nod over Ole Miss

Did you watch the game yesterday? Im positive too, but I’ll need some time. This was not just a loss, it was an embarrassing loss.

Ole Miss has 2 blowout losses on their resume(Florida and Georgia). And Florida is not even a ranked team now, looks really bad. That will weigh heavy with the playoff committee. Kentucky now has blowout loss to Tennessee, game was not close at all. If Kentucky gets a 3rd loss and IF LSU beat that same Tennessee team in Knoxville, that probably offsets an OT loss to Kentucky in Lexington.

There just isn't enough evidence to think that this team can do that

We technically do have a 50-50 chance to win or lose.

But in reality … do we??

I like the matchup against Texas better than Bama. Arch is more of a head case than Russell and Sark can be just as much of a spaz with in game decisions a Kiffin.

Yea but you also said you don’t think they’d get the nod over Ole Miss. I disagreed

There’s a chance to win out and get the 10 or 11 seed in the playoffs. If Lane Kiffin continues to be his own worst enemy, it’s over. I think they beat Texas for some reason and lose to UT Knoxville.

Your loss to Bama will be viewed the same as their loss to UGA

Bama got a pass in the rankings for a blowout loss to Tennessee because of it being right after a physical and emotional game against UGA; so I’m saying that Ole Miss likely gets the same consideration for their loss to Florida

It could go either way, but I’d bet on the Rebels in that scenario

No it won’t. What are you smoking? That Ole Miss UGA game was a blow out from start to finish. 42-7, Ole Miss was down 28-0 at halftime.

LSU actually took the lead on Alabama half way through the 3rd quarter, before Bama pulled away in the 4th. Not even close to what happened to Ole Miss this weekend
