we get thru Arkansas and Ole Miss, we could be 9-2 going into the Iron Bowl. That would be unreal based on where I thought we were heading after the Clemson game.
Very unlikely, but what if we beat Alabama and they beat A&M and there was a 3 way tie for 1st in the West? Who gets in since we all beat each other?

if there is a 3 way tie, i believe they go off of cross division opponent record. So since we have vandy and uga, that does not help up much since bama and aTm both have tennesse. but since bama played uk and aTm played usc, it will be close.
I could be wrong though, i know thats how it used to be done . it could just go off of CFP rankings.

What we should hope for if we go into the IB at 9-2 is for 2 of the 3 out of OM, LSU and Bama to beat A&M.
If it goes to the cross divisional opponents' record we're screwed since they both played TN and we have UGA and Vandy.

thru Arkansas
I don't think Arky matches up against us well at all. Yes Allen can get on a roll some, but overall I think our Running game and White taking advantage of their LB's and safeties will win the offensive matchup.

Ole Miss
Their big receivers concern me, but they have no running game like Clemson. so I feel better about the game.

Man I am far from certain we will beat:
Arkansas
Ole Miss
Vandy
UGA
We need to play a complete game against a half decent opponent first. If we cruise against Arkansas, let's talk.

We match up well if the coaches keep their head out of their asses and don't go from triple wizard whirlybird to super conservative. Control the clock and eat them up with a true balanced offense and all of them are possible. Oh and everybody stay healthy.
