    If you don't want the chance of having to play Alabama or Oregon again, then certainly pull for OSU.

    If you want LSU to have twice the chance of making it to the NC with a loss, then pull for OSU to lose. In fact, I would go on record as saying LSU would definitely be in the NC even with a close loss to either Arkansas or Georgia, should OSU lose tonight.

    definitely going to watch but it's tough judging the quality of okie st against such a garbage opponent. Their highlights have looked good so far but have they played any defenses close to LSU?

    LSU 11-1

    LSU with one loss will not go, they do not want a SEC team there if they can keep the SEC out of it !!! This is a fact , they wouild rather have OS vs the Ducks , that is what they deep down in their football hearts want . Why do you think they keep saying that Ark will beat LSU ?? I do not think ARk will beat LSU but if that happens guess who plays Georgia or SC ?? Not LSU that is a fact . But Ark . Some do not think that Ark will play LSU close , like last season in here some said it could not happen . Again this year ,Not in Tiger Stadium on Saturday night . Ark is coming they know that they are not #1 and they know they can still play for the SEC Championship. You think they will lay down ?? NO they will play as hard if not harder than LSU. Beating LSU would be speical don't you think ?? We will be lucky if we win by 6 Two FG's
