    Having us first helps bama in two ways if we win they can say we lost to the # 1 team so you cant drop us too far, and secondly if they win they can say the beat the #1 team. You can damn well believe those narratives are already underway.

    ParadiseiNC don't worry, be happy

    I mean, it would be an accurate stance either way, LOL.

    I’m going to focus on my Tigers. As long as they are in the top 4 at end of season, and in the playoffs, I can give a rats ass what Bama’s claims or angles are.

    My problem with it is bama can schedule these pansy ass schedules and be gifted with a second shot every year. If lsu beats bama on its home turf as a double digit dog, why should they get a second shot.

    As close as the scores are, tOSU will probably jump to one in the bye week if they win

    Unless I'm blind Ohio State also has a bye, so it's not gonna happen for better or worse

    I actually think our hold on #1 gets stronger during bye week as those northeasterners come to realize that we are the first team in modern era to beat 3 teams in top 10. Once that settles in, we’ll get more votes. Reminiscent of 2011 magic season where we beat like 8 teams in top 25, or something like that.....still one of the most impressive stretches of any college team ever.
