There is no way LSU makes the playoffs without playing in the sec championship game. None. Period. Zero. They wouldn't put in a big 12 team last year because they didn't have a championship game, and even dropped them out of the top 4, after winning a game the last week, because of it. The is no way they put in a team who didn't even make the conference championship game, regardless of how many losses they have. Remember, one of the huge catalysts for the CFP was the mulligan game.

Yes. There are a lot of good to great teams that will have just one loss or less and we are going to have a hard time working our way above them.

A one loss SEC champion should make the four team playoff.

no, because the way the big 10 is shaping up, they could have a 1 loss champion as well. I think Utah will drop one. so there won't be 4 undefeated conference champions to pick from.

Nope, 1 loss sec champ will get in over 1 loss other conference champs.

If Utah doesn't lose that pretty much kills any chance for an at-large bid for any team that didn't win their conference.


Utah is a 2 point underdog to Soc Cal this Saturday. Clemson plays Miami.

Fk no om will lose at least 2 more if not more. They aren't good and that loss looks worse and worse for bama

Ok in 2011 what three teams would have been over bama?


In what world do you think the commitee wants two SEC teams? It's not going to happen.

You're in this thread calling everyone idiots while having zero argument for your shitty opinion

If the committee let in a 1 loss tOSU last year then they will absolutely give a 1 loss SEC Champ the 4th seed.

Just beat Alabama and win the SEC. Those two things will guarantee a playoff spot.



Will have to beat Bama for sure to not have a tie breaker with them

We can't lose that one and win out and expect someone else to beat them

IF we win the SEC we are in, but I could see a situation where a weak SEC east team upsets bama, and we get in over bama because we have 1 loss and they have 2. This would still set up 1 SEC team.



In this case LSU and Bama would tie for SEC West title, so LSU would still technically have won their division. I could easily see the committee taking LSU over Bama and Florida.
Then everyone raises hell about conference title games

What if we beat Bama then lose to Ole Miss. Ole Miss would win the west with 2 losses (only one conference loss). If they go on to actually win the SEC, I could see a 1 loss LSU getting into the playoff over a 2 loss SEC Champ.
