I doubt LSU falls below Arky, therefore they would make it to Atlanta. In the small chance they do however, that cements Bama in and also to the BCS if we win.

Arky effectively has zero chance of making it unless Bama loses to Auburn and I just don't see that. We are out for blood this year.



I don't think the Arkansas/LSU result is likely to affect Alabama's bowl destination (most likely Sugar with a smaller chance of BCS NCG)

Arkansas is probably the odd man looking in on the BCS this year - even if they beat LSU because they are just way too far behind in teh computers and the human opinion poll results will be very muddy if LSU drops to Arky

What would have been really weird would have been lsu/bama finishing 1/2 in the BCS this year... after LSU lost to UGA in the SEC CCG. You would need too many shoes to drop (oregon, ou, ok state all losing 1+ more games) for this to happen but wow if it did. In that case you would have ended up with 3 SEC teams in teh BCS because all three would have been automatic qualifiers.

Cue the "you can't have more than 2 teams from the same conference in the BCS" responses... GO!

This year might be the closest we'll ever come to seeing that exception on 3 BCS teams. ('05 Ohio St/ Mich was closest previously but with no conference championship game to provide an upset.)
