A nightmare situation for the SEC may be for 3 teams to finish with one loss. A situation that is quite possible if LSU gets its way. If LSU can beat Alabama, and then beat Florida in the SEC title game we would have 3 once beaten SEC teams, which would make us wonder where to put the three of them. One of these 3 will miss a BCS bowl. I already said I think the odds of it being Florida are essentially 0. There's a lot of speculation that a once beaten LSU would play for the national title. They would have to jump undefeated Iowa and Cincinnati to do it. What would the BCS rankings look like though. It's hard to imagine how the voters and how the computers would respond. I've been saying all along that LSU is in a much better position than most other contenders, but I'm wondering how that would shake out. Here's my guess:
1. Texas
2. LSU
3. Iowa
4. Florida
5. Alabama
6. Cincinnati
7. TCU
8. Boise St
9. Oregon
10. Georgia Tech
Would LSU at #2 in the polls be enough to overcome an Iowa team that might be #3 in the polls but #1 in the computers. If Iowa finishes undefeated how will the polls treat them. I'll be rooting for LSU the rest of the way with the hope that there will be chaos at the end.
