re: How do you guys honestly see the west playing out?

Honestly believe 2 wins will get you out of the west if you own the tiebreakers. Too many good teams and both home schedule and weeks off before big games will determine winners... except in the case of my LSU Tigers. We're taking a do over. But most likely will luck into a win or two this year but no more than that. Our defensive line is so weak that I can't even imagine what Arkansas' line is going to do it ... OMG. But I think Bama will emerge. Auburn at home is a win. I think they may also lose to Arkansas this weekend. But really I believe, Auburn, Alabama, the winner of Miss State and Ole Miss and possibly Texas A&M will all end up with 2 losses, beating each other. LSU will lose 8 SEC games. Arkansas will lose 5 or 6, and I think there will be a 3 or 4 way tie in the West.
