Bama would be to far ahead of LSU for LSU to pass them. Plus if Bama wins in 12 ot's it wouldn't matter A loss is a loss. I doubt LSU would get in.
Dukke V - Pee Jay - whatever - you're always a Bama apologist and building them up. Why don't you admit it already? You're a closet Bama fan. Come out of the closet.
If LSU is #3 when they (if) they lose to Bama, AND under those circumstances, LSU would have three weeks to climb back up in the polls from #7 or #8 to #4 or #5. Bama would still be #2, but losing handily to a two-loss Georgia team which drops them below LSU. Missouri would be #3 or #4 and loses to Oklahoma. USC would be the other team, jumping to #2 in the human polls and LSU climbs to #3. If you look at the current rankings and schedules, this can be the case.
Of course, LSU could just as easily be in the same flip-flop position, beat Georgia in the regular season and lose to them in the SEC CG. Bama, with a lone loss to LSU would jump LSU then in the final polls to set the BCS schedule.

How am I building Bama up by saying IF and I mean IF they beat LSU they would go!!! Thats not my decision. I just believe that if you don't win your conf, You shouldn't go to the NC game so that means Bama wouldn't go either.

IMO, USC would play OU in that scenario. The pollsters would find a way to make sure that USC would be #2 in the BCS. As much as LSU or Bama would deserve it, I don't think either one would go because of not winning their conference.
Mark my words, the human polls will have USC at #1 to give them more leverage in the BCS if that were to happen. USC has to lose again for them to be completely out of the NC picture.
