    Which makes for an interesting question. If LSU, Oklahoma, and OSU went unbeaten this year, would LSU get left out like Auburn did? This year we have no Va Tech on the schedule to help us.

    Will an unbeaten SEC team get left out again? It's entirely possible that teams like USC and Oklahoma could go undefeated again.

    Probably LSU would get left out since we're playing a 1aa team, if USC and Oklahoma have straight 1a schedules. Stupid system.

    Interesting question indeed. You'd certainly hear a lot of hell being raised in the South, and probably even nationally if the defending National Champions can't even get into the title game by going unbeaten.

    I don't think so. If UGA and UF both have 10 win seasons, and we beat them both, and win the SEC the computers will probably give us a very strong rating.

    13-0 will put us in the title game. Let's not get worried about that just yet. We have to win AT Auburn, first and foremost.

    Those high expectations can be like an anchor around your neck. The pressure might be more than they can stand. :eek:ldskule:

    no. OSU would be left out after the last two NC tries and their lack of conf champ game. besides, UGA is this years VaTech.
