The other day I got bored, and looked at the remaining schedules of all teams. 3 of the 10 above us play each other. With LSU/Bama. To get to Atlanta, LSU needs to win, but a Bama win wouldn't be the end of the world for us. The easiest paths I saw belonged to Michigan St and Oregon. The biggest things to root for is stinker loses by anybody in the top 10.

Would be the best shot at us making it to Atlanta, which would make it easier to get back into the playoff pic, but honestly I don't think this is as big of a deal as some of the outside games from outside the conf.

At this point, all we can worry about is getting in position to win the West, so yeah... LSU beating Bama is a big deal.

The only thing is, if lsu wins, they would have the tie breaker over us and I don't see them losing again. I'm thinking a alabama win against lsu, Bama beating state and auburn. Then we take care of business the rest of the of the way would salvage a playoff spot for us.

So explain how we get in ahead of a one loss Bama? I think your math is wrong!

Never said we would. I think Bama wins out and just hoping the committee would put 2 sec teams in. Just my opinion. We need some other teams to lose. Michigan state losing tonight is good and Oregon needs to lose too.

The only chance we have to get in with 2 losses is to get to Atlanta and win the SEC Championship.

Aubie losing shakes things up. I don't think lsu has to win this game anymore for us to make Atlanta. There is a lot of losing for teams above us. Heck I'm not positive Florida st will beat Florida. We just need to find ways to win, and route for bama hard against state.

I hate to call someone out and say they are wrong, but in this case you clearly are. We could win out and not make the 4 team playoff, but we only get in through Atlanta. To say otherwise, you're kidding yourself. LSU might help us tonight.

Yeah, I don't think we get in with two losses without an SEC title.

Ok. It's my opinion as I stated. I think most of your statements are wrong and irritating but never point it out.
