Bamas already in, they could lose 3 and they’ll put them in. Won’t matter this year as they are really loaded.
Divisions don’t mean squat
Conferences don’t mean squat
Conference champions don’t mean squat
They pick who TV tells them to pick, and Bama is always going to get in
Let’s just enjoy each game like we used to before the BsCS and CFRipoff and beat the hell out of whoever we play.

Bama’s in, but most fans including in the SEC wouldn’t mine seeing the Aggies, P&G Tigers, and Tigers in the Plains all beating Alabama, it would be a triump over inequality.

There is no OUCH in being 3-0 and ranked in the top 10

Why did you get downvoted for this? Ole Miss has a damn good offense and looked like pre school kids vs grown men. Bama is scoring like crazy (leading the entire nation). Tua is barely playing the second half, and they are blowing power 5 teams out. Last year with 254 attempts, Hurts had 17 pass TDs. In 3 games on only 78 attempts, Tua and Hurts have 12 pass TDs. They have a stable of RBs and a corps of WRs that's as deep and effective as anybody else in the country. Their OL is still a monster as well.

LSU will need to score 30+ to beat them. There are games every year, no matter how good your defense is, where you have to score a lot to win.

In addition to not committing many turnovers, we have to play way better offensively.

Oregeron has done something Miles never did. He filled holes at QB,


Joe Burrow has done nothing to suggest he's better than Etling this far, a QB who was also a transfer.

I agree with your overall point about Miles's stubbornness.

If we go undefeated into SECCG and lose to 1 loss UGA, they get in obviously. Then Bama will jump us to get in despite H2H loss. Same shite as Auburn last year.


The same, except completely different.

I’d hope they’d leave out Bama in this situation. Not likely though.

LSU will get screwed in this, somehow, yet they will have the strongest resume

Na. This shouldn’t be a worry now. We may not beat bama but I’m no longer worried about them being an incompetent mess. They are clearly much better coached than expected, there is leadership on both sides of the ball, and they play for 60 min. It appears that they have bought in and have beaten 2 top teams with out playing well for 4 quarters. No one is CRUSHING this team. Especially Georgia. These teams won’t look nearly like the well oiled juggernauts, against us, that they have looked like so far. Fromm Won’t be completing 80% against this D.

You are only talking about the defensive side of the ball.... the offense must improve if we stand a chance against both UGA and Bama...

"If you’re going to win close ones, this stat matters most: LSU is the only school in the nation that has not committed a turnover this season. That’s a year after committing just eight, which also led the nation. Teams trying to beat LSU have to actually beat LSU, as opposed to waiting around for LSU to beat itself."


Great coaching and preparation gives you this stat. They’ve protected the ball extremely well.

Maybe so but Joe has been here what? 4mo or so? New team New offense New Coaches. New Wr.. I have a feeling he’s gonna be much more in sync come November. The Oline is starting to find their way as well.

Ya I love Nick and proudly say I called him being the key to beating Miami. But we got to Become more dominant in the run game if we want to win a game like UGA game. They have a very efficient qb and dominant backs. I hope Curry starts getting some Carries. CEH will continue to get better. Imo one thing that’s crucial is joe needs to get better at the screen game. That’s a crucial part of involving the backs w/o just running between the tackles

LSU is playing tough as nails while LSU’s QB and skill players are still learning the offense, lot to be proud of and look forward to.
