Guys, don't underestimate the sympathy factor. Everyone in the sport loves Tua. Everyone in the sport feels terrible about what happened to him. If Alabama wins out and the committee is in a position to put Alabama in, they will.

I don't think there is any sympathy and don't want any. They have Bama fatigue and are waiting to lock us out!

Put your tin foil hat on and maybe "they" will stop beaming thoughts into your brain.

I mentioned the same in another thread. I think we have to pound them pretty good to have a shot.
We won't blow them out. Their defense is too good. Any defense that can hold LSU to 23 points at Baton Rouge has to be very very good. If we win it'll be close.

Different match ups produce different results. I agree they are very good, but they will be in a different place mentally in two weeks than they were when they went to Baton Rouge.

Last year Tua had 5 or 6 touchdowns against that defense which is pretty much the same I think. But it was a home game for us of course.

I’ll be happy if Bama wins by just a few. I hope it’s double digits though. I realize there’s a possibility we may lose too . Just hope we have no more injuries before then.

The key is Najee.

We need to beat the socks off WCU, then beat Auburn soundly.

Soundly doesn't mean a blowout on the scoreboard necessarily. It means the outcome should never be in question. For that to happen, we need to take the lead early and our defense needs to rise up and shut down Auburn's offense. We need a total win, on both sides of the ball.

You need a win that demonstrates that you are better than Auburn. That doesn't require a crazy score - just solid play and a convincing win.

I think TOSU should be ranked #1 with LSU #2. I do not think A&M can beat LSU and I dont think Ga. can either. If the Tide beats Auburn it's going to come down to the PAC-12 champ vs the Tide. I think if OU wins out we are in the Sugar Bowl vs either Ga. or Ala.
LSU is not as complete a team as TOSU. I think they will play for it all and the Buckeyes win.

I think the Bucks are the class of the field as well. However, the corndogs have proven time and again they are better than some pretty good teams. I'll take LSU in that matchup.

Re: CFP standings for. 11/19/2019

That's what the ESPN crew said and the Committee Chair said that the committee went back to watch the rest of the Bama game without Tua and that we lost some support.
So......we are letting a committee rate us based on us NOT running up the score on somebody........


THIS is the all-powerful committee?????

Which I think can happen simply because I can see the team more focused because they know Tua isnt there, they all have to step it up...and maybe they decide to do it for him.

Now Oregon, maybe Arizona State beats them before their Utah game.

We are headed to the sugar bowl in an unwanted( on our part) rematch with Oklahoma. While I think a win for us is very possible in JHS, I don’t see it being a dominant one unless the barn just flat doesn’t show up to play—and that won’t happen since this game is their season.
