LSU has a chance. It is not a good one. I don't think it makes sense for LSU fans to be assholes to others who basically write off their not good chance and focus on teams with better chances


The assholery didn't really start till you jumped in. Not a good chance is still a chance, and it's pretty lame for you to act like we should be too cool to not hope for it to happen. You're showing your arse and everyone is calling you out for it.

Two LSU fans, one of whom initiated the name calling, are calling me out.

So I disagree with your premise. I don't think you should be too cool to not hope for your team. If Auburn can't go, I'll hope for your team. But I do think it's dumb to get self-righteous to folks who don't include you in the contenders at this point.

I guess I would rather state win. They don't seem as delusional as OM fans. Just by reading this board, it appears this is the first year of Ole Miss' football program

I think it's dumb to include a team who isn't out yet in a thread about teams that are out.

I think it's even dumber to come in to this thread and act like you don't see why fans of that team would not agree with it's inclusion in said thread.

You are the reason this thread is a shite show.

What the OP said was technically incorrect, I have no problem with it.

To answer the premise of the thread. IF/When LSU were mathematically out of the running, I hope State can do it, but would be OK with anyone but Bama.

The irony. For all practical purposes LSU will not make it to the playoffs- it's possible, but more than likely not going to happen. You fell right for the OP's obvious bait he set

LSU has an outside chance of the SECCG, which is a guaranteed playoff spot.


A guaranteed playoff spot? No it isn't. Highly unlikely that the SEC champ wouldn't be in the playoffs but it's definatley not a guaranteed thing

In all seriousness, what has to happen for LSU to be in the playoff? And could it realistically happen? I'm not saying you can't make it, mind you. I'm asking what has to happen for y'all to make it.

Ole Miss has to win out, right? Realistically, that could happen. If it does, great. If not, they've still had a pretty good year.

Unless Pettifogger is the OP, the rest of your post makes no sense.

We have a chance, and I'll say it all the way up until we don't.

I'm aware it is slim. I also don't give a shite.

A lot of stuff. More than I feel like typing Still a chance though.

ETA: From our Rant:
quote:

We really need Auburn and State to finish with 3 losses, obviously LSU has to win out...so

Auburn at Ole Miss
Arky at State

A&M at Auburn

Auburn at Georgia
State at Bama

Ole Miss at Arky (doesn't matter if Auburn wins this weekend)
Vandy at State

Auburn at Bama
State at Ole Miss

Ideally the West finishes...

LSU 6-2
OM 6-2
Bama 6-2
AU 5-3
State 5-3

LSU wins the first tiebreaker here and doesn't need to worry about the goofy 2nd, 3rd tiebreakers

Arkansas has a better chance of winning out than LSU coming close to a playoff spot. But you're right, there is still a chance

Is it too much to ask that you be smart or funny while you do it? What you do kind of just sucks.

I want Ole Miss to win the whole damn thing... Makes sense when you think about it... I also want TN to miss a bowl game so we can close stronger in recruiting.
