If LSU beats Georgia shouldn`t they play OU?

[Journeyman]

I know USC is just as good if not better than the Tigers but have they played as tough a schedule as LSU?

The SEC is a much tougher conference, especially this year...I know Winky will have something to say if he see`s this

LSU ???

USC ???

First things first LSU will not beat UGA, so that should put an end to ur postulating.

I can name 5 teams that would beat USC on a neutral field and should be given a shot at OU before them.

Let me qualify my remarks by saying Im a frustrated Bulldogs fan who hates that 5 foot nothing midget who cost UGA their shot at a National Championship.

If LSU wins and they are going to be very close to the #2 rating. They would even have a tad better chance if they win by over 10 points and USC stuggles just a little.

This could really be a bad beat for LSU and their fans.

Can you imagine LSU playing in NEW ORLEANS for the title?? WOW!

 

[RxScorekeeper]

I thought winning margin was no longer a factor in the BCS?

I think winning margin should be a factor when it involves higher echelon teams...If LSU wins someone is gonna get screwed here..

 

[Buzzsaw]

LSU needs to put an impressive win together and have USC stuggle with OSU. That way they can switch spots in the AP and coaches poll. I don't think a 17 - 10 type win will do it either. LSU needs 31-10 type win.

 

[Fishhead]

Complete falsehood.

Why?

Because the AP and Coaches Poll are a major factor in the COMPUTER ratings and many pollsters are swayed by margin of victory!

 

[Fishhead]

Buzz- Good point

IF lsu and usc both win, lsu will not pass them unless syracuse beats notre dame. notre dame wins usc finishes second. anyone says that OVERALL lsu has played a tougher schedule hasnt looked at the schedules. lsu replaced a cancelled game with marshall with a game against in-state powerhouse ULM,the dead last ranked team in the country. w.illinois didnt help much either. they face the same problem next year replacing virg.tech who have also cancelled a game against them, its impossible to find anything but a very weak team that still has an opening in their schedule less than a year away. its not really their fault but thats life.

I think LSU should be #2 and go BUT USC is the better team and might give the better game

 

[Fishhead]

I would love to see a Miami of Ohio vs. Boise State match-up!

That would be a great bowl game!

 

[THE SHRINK]

I'd much rather see LSU play Oklahoma than USC...

The truth though is that neither of these teams will beat Oklahoma this year...

NO WAY!

[PanchoSanza]

How many points would you be willing to lay with OU against either side?

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

Stu: LSU didn't replace their lost game with ULM, they replaced it with then #1 ranked Western Illinois.

They sent out word to all 1-A teams that they had a date open & there was a deal on tap with one team but they backed out so the only team that stepped up was W. Illinois

If anyone wants to talk schedules, they should look at that pathetic schedule of USC's which is overrated. They played in the worst conference amongst the powerhouses & their ooc schedule had teams that were horrible this year so why not bring that up.

If LSU wins, they should be #2 as they would have beaten more top 50 teams then USC & played in a tougher conference & their loss was to a superior foe compared to USC's loss.

In other words SCREW THE BCS

Let's see what happens. I'm not a fan either way but;

If LSU hammers Georgia (helluva big "if") and if USC does not blow out OSU then the writers and coaches could very well flip flop them.

Keep in mind the AP and Coaches Poll's are MAIN componets of the BCS. Even if they were to flip flop in one of those polls it would be a virtual toss up as to who would land 2nd in the BCS.

What I think? Georgia is a legit top 5 team. But LSU's defense gotten much better the last 1/2 of the season.
LSU 27
GA 13

USC 31
OSU 17
ND beats Syr

I think USC wins the 2nd spot by 0.35

Of course LSU is going to beat Georgia. I would love to be back at the Superdome. I am going to be a nervous wreck tomorrow before and while I am watching the game, but I have faith in my Tigers. GO TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!!
