BCS ranking would decide a 3 way tie, because the other tie breakers still end in a tie.


LSU would have to lose twice. A loss to Arky would still keep them within 5 places of the UA in BCS standings. Therefore, they would look at Head to Head battle. Of course Arky would be within 5 too. Really - not sure who should get to go. Everyone assuming Arky would be out but why? They lost a long time ago. It would be a popularity contest for sure - and we would have one hell of a Mythical National Champion that didn't win it on the field.

If we got Sugar or Cap One, anyone have any ideas on who we would play? I haven't kept up with that cluster frick of the Big 10.

The only way to figure this out is with a three team SECCG. Bama O vs Arky D, then Arky O v LSU D, then LSU O v Bama D, then go backwards, flip teams around, etc. Field goals count against the team who's D is on the field. Whoever has the most TD's from outside the red zone wins.
