    I dont think we need to worry about Arky being 7-1 in the SEC at the end of the year...but still a good question

    Auburn will hold the tiebreaker against us... that's why they need to lose once more

    I think we'd win a 3 way tie for first since we'd have the highest BCS ranking, but I don't think we can count on Ark going undefeated the rest of the season before they play us...

    Here is the three team tie breaker rules

    B. THREE (OR MORE) TEAM TIE

    (Once the tie has been reduced to two teams, go to the two-team tie-breaker format.)
    Combined head-to-head record among the tied teams.
    Record of the tied teams within the division.
    Head-to-head competition vs. the team within the division with the best overall (divisional and non-divisional) Conference record and proceeding through the division. Multiple ties within the division will be broken from first to last.
    Overall record vs. non-division teams.
    Combined record vs. all common non-divisional teams.
    Record vs. common non-divisional team with the best overall Conference (divisional and non-divisional) record and proceeding through other common non-divisional teams based on their order of finish within their division.
    The tied team with the highest ranking in the Bowl Championship Series Standings following the last weekend of regular-season games shall be the divisional representative in the SEC Championship Game, unless the second of the tied teams is ranked within five-or-fewer places of the highest ranked tied team. In this case, the head-to-head results of the top two ranked tied teams shall determine the representative in the SEC Championship Game.

    We all make a big pot of gumbo and we get taste testers to vote on the best one.

    So, in other words, LSU gets to go to the SEC CG.

    If Arky wins today and all teams run the table:

    Arkansas would be out based on "Overall record vs. non-division teams", i.e., their loss to USC.

    It would come down to LSU vs. Auburn

    LSU would then win based on:

    highest ranking in the Bowl Championship Series Standings following the last weekend of regular-season games shall be the divisional representative in the SEC Championship Game

    because LSU would pass Auburn easily in the BCS standings that will be coming out soon, based solely on rankings in Harris and Coaches poll (SOS is similiar and doesn't give Auburn any advantage on making up the difference in the polls).

    LSU would move to at least 5th with a win today, Auburn would drop to at least 8th or 9th in the polls with the loss (maybe even 10th since its a home loss to a non top 25 team).

    Unless going back to the 2 team tie means the Auburn win over LSU rules us out. Someone needs to clarify this. Actually, now that I think about it, that's probably the case, unfortunately.
