I'm down with all that except for Mississippi State losing three games.

Who wins the 3 way tiebreak if LSU beats Alabama, Alabama beats Mississippi State, and Mississippi State beats LSU and they all have 2 losses? It used to go by the BCS.

I think it's the "best team" rule. Committee would just decide. I don't know for sure, though.

We win the tie breaker with Alabama and Ole Miss for beating both HTH.

Y'all are making this too complicated.

LSU wins out.
Bama wins out, except for LSU loss.
Ole Miss wins out, except for Bama/LSU.
Auburn loses to Bama, Ole Miss.
Moo State loses to Bama, Ole Miss.

4-way tie, but LSU is only team with 2-1 head-to-head. Ole Miss, Bama, Moo are all 1-2.

Condie Rice crowns us, says we are who she thought we were.

..that's an even better scenario.

We don't have to worry about Arkansas winning anything.

All of those wins/losses wouldn't suprise anyone.

Oops. Ole Miss already beat Bama.

Rethinking. ...

Ole Miss must lose to someone else. Pig souie!

Or more likely, Ole Miss loses to Auburn, who loses to Bama/UGA.

The BCS rank was the last tiebreaker, not the first. Of course, now it no longer exists. I got curious and I was right about the tiebreaker procedure:

Three-Team Tie (or more)
If three teams (or more) are tied for a division title, the following procedure will be used in the following order: (Note: If one of the procedures results in one team being eliminated and two remaining, the two-team tiebreaker procedure as stated in No. 1 above will be used):
A. Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams
B. Record of the tied teams within the division
C. Head-to-head competition against the team within the division with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non-divisional) and proceeding through the division (multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last and a tie for first place will be broken before a tie for fourth place)
D. Overall Conference record against non-divisional teams
E. Combined record against all common non-divisional teams
F. Record against the common non-divisional team with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non-divisional) and proceeding through other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division; and
G. Changed: Combined SEC record of the team’s cross-divisional opponents

Then...

Three-Team Tie (or more)
If three teams (or more) are tied for a division title, the following procedure will be used in the following order: (Note: If one of the procedures results in one team being eliminated and two remaining, the two-team tiebreaker procedure as stated in No. 1 above will be used):
A. Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams
B. Record of the tied teams within the division
C. Head-to-head competition against the team within the division with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non-divisional) and proceeding through the division (multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last and a tie for first place will be broken before a tie for fourth place)
D. Overall Conference record against non-divisional teams
E. Combined record against all common non-divisional teams
F. Record against the common non-divisional team with the best overall Conference record (divisional and non-divisional) and proceeding through other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division; and
G. Changed: Combined SEC record of the team’s cross-divisional opponents

So my two-loss MSU scenario works. Eliminate two teams with the first tiebreaker, move to the 2-team tiebreaker, which LSU would win.

The five team scenario is harder, but let's work it out:

Everyone is 2-2 against each other, so that's out. All are undefeated against the Eat, so that's out. So it would come down to head-to-head against the best record in in conference, which would be Auburn. LSU would be eliminated by virtue of their loss to Auburn. So we still need Auburn to lose two more times to prevent the 5-team tie.

Yes, this is all exceedingly unlikely.

I think they get a loss or two more

no

probably happens

We would obviously have to win out and rely on Arkansas to finally beat someone, but stranger things have happened.. 2007, anyone?

We beat Georgia in the SECCG.

Do we get a nod in the Top 4 as SECC at 11-2?


just stop, we are not nearly good enough to win the west, get close to 10 wins and most especially compete for the playoff. Florida kinda beat themselves I hate to say, Florida was driving to win the game, than they call a slant pass with 0 time outs and 40 seconds left. (made no sense) We get a bounce return it into field goal range.

Kentucky will be a good game, it is the last game we will be the favorite in.

Ole Miss is on fire and playing well, it will take a lot to beat them at home

Bama is down this year we can beat them but we will be the underdog.

Arkansas runs the ball as much as we do just better, it will be tough for us to stop them if our D doesn't see immediate improvement.

aTm is pissed that we beat them 2 straight years and shut us down. They want that game, they will likely shred our secondary we won't be able to keep up.

I'm sticking to the same prediction I've said all year.

LSU will beat Kentucky and than upset one of our last 4 opponents 7-5 finish.

It certianly wouldnt be the first time a 2-loss SEC champ went on to win a NC. I was just trying to think about the remaining schedule and who had to lose to who in order for us to make it to Atlanta.

Could happen.
