Bama does not have to lose. Heads up does not matter in a 3 or 4 way tie.

From my understanding, we have to win out. Georgia needs to beat UT. Arkansas needa to beat Missouri. Probably would not hurt if Alabama beat Auburn but I do not think it is necessary.

In short, we need Georgia to beat Tenn and we need teams we played to beat teams we did not play.

That calculator people have been posting does a good job of explaining the rankings at the end and why one team is over the next.

Because head to head doesn’t matter when more than 2 teams are tied

This is a bad football team right now. We can’t stop a running QB to save our lives.

The way I see LSU getting to the SECCG now is this:

1. LSU goes 3-0.

2. Arkie beats Texas

3. UGA beats Tennessee

4. Aggies beat Texass and Arkie beats Mizzou.

Its gonna be a cluster in just about any scenario.

this is the simplest explanation. There is going to be a ton of teams at 6-2 if Georgia beats Tennessee giving them both 2 conference losses. LSU can beat Florida if Langway is out and can win at home against Vandy and Oklahoma with the season on the line.

That puts LSU at 6-2 along with a lot of other teams and the standings calculator shows great odds of lsu winning the 4 or 5 team tiebreaker if that’s what it comes down to. We want Vandy and South Carolina to wreck everyone else.

We are essentially lucky we didn’t play the 3 worst teams in conference, MSU UK and Auburn because we don’t have those teams bringing down our opponent win percentage like the rest of the conference.

I know you all just want to talk shite and stuff but literally all that has to happen is the favorites win their games and Arkansas beats Missouri. That is it. IF we win our 3 games we are in the SEC championship with the tie breaker playing against the winner of Texas/Texas A&M. Reason is the tie breaker in the new non division set up goes by opponents win percentage. Yeah I know crazy but that would be it. Do I think we would win that game, probably not. But you never know. Hahaha. If we win though we are guaranteed a first round bye in the playoffs lol. Which is crazy and would piss everyone off because we would be like a 15-16 ranked team with a first round bye lol
