    If we lose just once, we will be in the top 10, if not top 5. Playing Florida and Alabama(with their ranking) and assuming victory and a loss in the SECCG means we would probably be in the Top 5 before a loss. I don't think this is the 90's anymore. Disrespect or not, LSU is not off the radar. And losing only one game would be great.

    Though I would prefer that to be regular season, and not in the SECCG.

    Correct. A 1 loss SEC team (especially one that won the SEC CG) puts that team either in the NC or a BCS bowl berth.

    The SEC is all but guaranteed 2 BCS spots, so there's really no way he gets cheated.

    I don't know if that's entirely a given anymore. I still maintain that this may be the year the BCS tries to put a mid-major in the NC game if the traditional powers have 1-2 losses and a team like Boise is undefeated.
