    An LSU win and an Auburn win next Saturday and LSU will be no worse than #4 in the BCS and an automatic qualifier for a BCS bowl game.

    A South Carolina win would really complicate things obviously.

    And as far as LSU goes, I like when things get complicated :)...

    One down (Boise State)..
    One, maybe two to go.

    I really believe the Boise loss helps us. I will stand pat that the coaches at the end of the year, would not be able to look themselves in the mirror if they voted an undefeated TCU team into the title game with a review of that schedule. It is just horrid.

    If Auburn or Oregon should fall, I believe the final rankings would have LSU jumping an undefeated TCU.

    All I know is this.

    Until it's final, it ain't final.

    And lets not forget that if we win today over Arkansas, the computers are gonna love us even more.

    Yes the computers will, and with WVU's win over Pitt that didn't hurt, now if UF, UNC, Miss St, UT, all would win today that'll help even more.

    In Miles crazy hold on fate I trust. Arkansas will be a tough test, if we win we will be a legitimate NC contender in my eyes. Here's hoping someone drops the hammer on Auburn, and soon!

    1st and foremost, however, is Arkansas. All points will be mute if we can't line up and beat the opponent across the LoS.

    I like the way you think!

    (except it's "moot", not "mute"! :))

    The Oregon/Oregon State game is at 3:30 EST and the SEC CG is at 4:00 EST next Saturday.

    Talk about flipping the channels.

    Ok. So what is the best-case scenario for LSU? Auburn loss, Oregon loss, assuming TCU wins?

    imo, all that matters is we win and have a damned strong finish that sets us up for next season.

    I once met a deaf moot.

    ... kept talking about how unimportant he was.
