That's why at this stage it is opinion and speculation. I can definitely foresee a scenario where LSU wins out, thereby beating the almighty Bama, and AUB losing convincingly to Bama, and LSU being the top rated SEC team and in the top 3. That scenario has LSU winning this week, and again against a few more SEC teams (Arky and Ole Miss), during which time they are inching forward in the BCS, esp given strength of schedule yearlong. When AUB is then exposed and loses to Bama (Bama would be out of the top 10 since they lost to LSU weeks earlier) in convincing fashion, and LSU at that point is top 6, Auburn would slide behind LSU. LSU would then be top 5, perhaps top 3, depending on other complicated, less anticipated scenarios, going into the SEC CG. Once we win the SEC CG, we are then top 3 as other teams falter in their CGs.

Simple really. The key is AUB plays Bama late, and they have no window to recover and build back up, unlike LSUs loss to Auburn, in which they have weeks-months to get back in the saddle.

Auburn losing convincingly, I'll give you that.

The pollsters will still struggle with it, but ultimately will have to give way to LSU being ranked ahead of Auburn. A close loss, no way they drop them behind us. It just ain't happening.

The computers will be a mixed bag of LSU over Auburn or visa versa.

Good grief, advanced physics is less complicated.

#5 Bama wins out and thus wins it all. Simple is better.

pardon me for gloating, but the "physics" for LSU just got simpler, and for Bama voided.
