But since that didn't happened how can these people say LSU is gonna make the playoffs.

Put yourself in their shoes, and then take note of three factors:

1) There doesn't appear to be a clear-cut best team in the West. There are a lot of good-but-flawed teams, even Alabama. That said, it still seems likely that whatever team wins the West will also win the SEC and make the playoff.

2) Harris has emerged at QB, and that makes LSU look very appealing all of a sudden. Harris' success is the "news" of Spring ball in the West.

3) You need something new to talk about. You've got airtime to fill here. LSU good again? Sounds like a good story.
