It is done even if LSU would lose to the Dawgs - it is sealed LSU vs Bama Geaux Tigers Dawgs get a nice extra game but we get the ring Bama finds some false gold and that is all - we get the ring Geaux Tigers
Bama was No. 3 in 4/6 computer polls, this week they are No. 2 in 4/6 polls. It's done, LSU - Bama II is coming. May the best Tiger win! :geaux:
Cliff, if LSU gets upset, that makes the Bulldogs SEC champs. You still want to play Bama for all the marbles?
One would expect that a victory against Oklahoma next week would mean more to the computers than the victory against Auburn this week. Admittedly it looks quite likely, but "done" is premature.
I think by then the debate/discussion is a moot point, right? One team never even made it to the SECCG and the other at least got there but lost....in that event, a logical tie breaker would imply that LSU beat Bama at Bama....and yes, we would still play for all the marbles.
There are still a few relevant games to be played. Don't count okie st out of it just yet. It would take a big margin of victory over chokelahoma, but that is still within reach.
You would be correct. Oklahoma State will be ahead of Alabama in at least 5 of the 6 computer polls, guaranteeing a .960 to .920 spread. They just need to get to 5 of 6, don't need all 6 since the high and low are thrown out. In other words, Okie State needs to pass Bama in 3 of those 4 computer polls in which they are behind right now. Bama fans may be getting excited a bit prematurely. 1/4 of the voters need to vote Okie State #2 and the rest no lower than #3. Only 15 of 59 coaches (as many as 5 already have Alabama lower than #2) Only 29 of 115 Harris voters (as many as 4 already have Alabama lower than #2) Then it's Bye Bye Bama.
