LSU fans are THE most sensitive motherfrickers I’ve even seen. You seriously think someone deserves a ban for a legitimate question?

I get that you guys are excited, but Bama is BAD this year. Anyone with common sense can see that.

can't decide if you are an Alabama or Aggie alter.

No, alters should be banned, which you are. Now, melt some more from your real account, pussy.

Beating Georgia in Atlanta will convince me that we're playoff worthy.

I’ll probably regret this but I’m going to try to reason with you.

Your argument is essentially that the kickoff classic in September should count more than the SEC Championship game.

I assure you the committee doesn’t view it that way and if they did there would be absolutely no point in divisions or title games. They’ve always placed a premium on conference champions as result.

It’s not the end all be all but it factors on heavily and if they didn’t value what LSU has done so far they wouldn’t have us ahead of 1 loss USC as it is.

If you can’t see winning the SEC would jump us into the top 4 I don’t know what to tell you.

Okay… listen guys. Beating Bama this season is about as good an accomplishment as paying for verification on Twitter. A one loss Michigan or Ohio State will get in before a 2 loss LSU. If you beat Georgia, the winner of the Michigan/OSU game will be number one. So how would the committee put in a team with losses to unranked FSU and #5-6 Tennessee OVER a one loss team with their only loss being to #1? Make it make sense

Your premise is wrong. UT will be 3rd or 4th if they win out, according to the playoff predictor thingey.

But they would have beaten said #1 team….

And they know that LSU has drastically improved since those losses…

You are working under the assumption that a 2-loss LSU riding a 7 game winning streak would have just won the SEC by beating the undisputed #1 team- something neither Ohio State nor Michigan would be able to accomplish even if they were a member.

IF LSU does all that, good luck keeping them out. I think 2 SEC teams get in, anyway.

How pissy and depressed are you right now? Do we need to send someone for a wellness check?

If you haven't realized that all the smart people and those in the know are saying exactly that (that you won't jump into the top 4) then I don't know what to tell you.

The only people agreeing with you on this are other LSU fans, and of course a few UG fans who are trying to troll UT fans.

FSU is ranked for one. And if we win out we would have beaten #1 #8 and #14 ranked teams in the country. And no telling what people are ranked at end of season. We may have wins vs more ranked teams and Bama and Ole Miss both may be ranked higher making or resume way better than a 1 loss team who has played 2 ranked opponents of whatever it may end up

They aren’t actually except Rece who is a Bama fan and hates LSU

Regardless none of those people are on the committee. If they weren’t priming us to jump you with a win over Georgia they would t have us only 1 spot behind you in the first place, they’d have kept us behind USC as well.

That’s still now what I’m saying, because even if you beat UGA, you still lost to Tennessee by a LOT. Plus UGA is in regardless.

And Michigan and Ohio State are on the same side so the loser of that game is more deserving to go to the Big Ten Title game than whoever else makes it in.

Lets say Michigan loses… ok so Michigan is 11-1 with losses to #1 OSU.

LSU would be 10-2 with losses to #5 Tennessee and #20 FSU.

Yes they have better wins, but Michigan has dominated their schedule.

Then you have Tennessee who’s only loss is to #3 UGA and who beat your team by 20+.

You can’t take away the early loss even though you won at the end of the season.

A lot of this presumes that Michigan will beat Illinois.

I realize you probably don't understand this but LSU fans don't control the committee.

LSU can only win their remaining games and see what happens.
