Didn't you say the bowl match ups were based on the rankings and nothing else?

I will clarify in the OP. The auto bids are taken the highest ranked teams from the appropriate conferences depending on the bowl. The at large spots are then claimed starting from the highest ranked team that isn't in the playoff or claimed by an auto-bid and then the next highest team and so on until there are no more at large spots. This is all done by the committee based on what they think the best place and match up will be for those teams. So there is some play with the at large bids but it isn't up to the bowls. It is still done by the committee.

Finally a post that makes sense. Texas A&M will take LSU straight up.
Tulane will beat U of H and win out
You can forget the Fiesta or Peach Bowl because LSU goes home Unless the meet Tulane in the first every CHICKEN Bowl

You people in Baton Rouge need to stay away from the green trucks. It’s kills the Brain cells

I'm assuming you just read the weed truck thread on the OT and that is in New Orleans .

All this talk is for naught because A&M beats us this year and we will be headed to another bull shite bowl.



I like how people are just assuming A&M is a win.

I get the same feeling with A&M as I did vs UF.

I don't think people necessarily are. But if we're going to talk New Years 6 bowls, you have to assume LSU wins out. We're looking at the scenarios in the New Years Six bowls in this thread, so therefore we assume LSU beats Texas A&M. But of course they should not be taken lightly.

Can we beat A&M? Definitely.

Will we? I don't think we will unless we can get much better production out of our offense.

Losing to the Aggies would blow everything all to hell and we'll end up back in either the Citrus or Outback bowl.
