I say any team that faces LSU in the national championship game is going to get bodied.

If LSU gets there that is... I obviously think they will.

funny thing is, even though there are 119 teams that COULD win the Nat'L Championship, I think LSU is 50/50 on winning it...

Now, if he had said someone like Hawaii :-)

Sorry Hawaii fans, I just had to.... :-)

lol

The Devil made me say it :-)

If Ohio State makes it, it will just be a repeat of last year's title game. Ohio State will get DEMOLISHED if they catch LSU in the BCS National Title Game.

LSU only has one tough game left for the regular season, and that is Alabama. LSU is just now starting to get Flynn back to full strength, and they now have Doucet back at WR. Doucet did pretty well against Auburn. The defense has really only struggled against Kentucky. They played poorly against both Florida and Auburn in the 1st half, and then stiffened in the 2nd half to allow a comeback. LSU's defense is not overrated. Facing elite offenses like Kentucky and Florida is tough.

When they go to the SEC Championship Game, they are capable of winning. They showed that by beating teams like Virginia Tech, South Carolina, Florida, and Auburn.

LSU's defense did look lackluster against Auburn. Auburn's offense has improved a lot since the beginning of the year, but I wouldn't call them potent or dangerous by any means. Keep in mind though, that Glenn Dorsey missed a significant amount of time (thanks in large part to one of the dirtiest plays I've seen all year), and he is the anchor of that deffensive line. There's also the fact that it was the third game of brutal 3 game stretch (Florida, @Kentucky, Auburn).

LSU still has as good a shot as anyone. If they take care of business in Tuscaloosa, they don't have any significant hurdles to clear until the SEC championship game. They win that and they have 1 loss and one of the toughest schedules in the country. That should be enough to get them to the BCS title game this year.

GO FLORIDA!!!

Yeah, they should definitely be 5-3. Gimme a break. This team is ASTOUNDING in what it has done. It's played like 4 of its last 5 games against opponents in the top 20, including several high powered offenses this year like Florida, South Carolina, Auburn, and Kentucky. You might be a bit worn down after that stretch as well.

South Carolina and Auburn aren't high powered offenses. They're good teams, and LSU has been very impressive considering they've played such a tough schedule this year, so I'm not trying to take away from what they've accomplished. But South Carolina and Auburn aren't quality offensive teams.

LSU is good but Auburn pretty much dismantled them in the first half which proves they are def. beatable. With that said, I still believe that they will run the table and celebrate a national championship in their home state.

how are they beatable when you lost? every team when they win a championship always has that one or two games where they could have lost but they didnt...if they are definately beatable how come they werent beat by auburn

Because Auburn kicked a short squib kick after going up by 1 point late in the 4th quarter, thus giving LSU about 20 extra yards of field position that they didn't have to cover in order to be in field goal range?

but good team capitalize on mistakes, so youre telling me no national champion ever had to come from behind to win a game? Auburn made a mistake so LSU gets punished for auburn making a mistake rather than praised for comeing from behind to win the game as time expired?

OSU offense and OSU defense will put up a fight but will not be able to adjust to non big ten style of play (just like last year)

so what is a Big ten style of play???? hahaha dumbest comment i have heard

Big Ten style of play...run first then run again then maybe run a third time, compare to every other conferense who might run 2 or 3 times in a scoring drive. Steveo you have no idea what youre talking about. I have watched the big ten play my whole life and i watched the big ten get dominated each year by other conferences in non conference and bowl play year after year

steveo shows his own ignorance

I wasn't trying to punish LSU. I agree with you man (I know, it's rare). LSU has just as good (if not better) shot as anyone in the country of winning the title this year.

I was just tryin' to make a joke, and also point out that yes, LSU is beatable. Every team that has ever won the title is (except maybe the '95 Nebraska team), it just takes a mistake free game from the opponent to do it. If Auburn doesn't make that mistake, they probably win. Kudos to LSU for taking advantage of it.

Man said LSU wouldnt be national champs...the fact he is losing leads me to believe all of you think he is wrong.

Not watching the same college football season if you ask me. Bama coming up...SEC title game, I just dont see LSU making it.

ok Lets look at LSU's meaningful games

Va Tech - win
South Carolina - win
Florida- win
Auburn - win
Kentucky - loss

lets look at oklahoma's meaningful games
Colorado- Loss
Missouri - win

lets look at Ohio State's meaningful games
??????


If you want to write LSU out because they lost 1 game then why not write off OK and OSU for not playing anybody. Everybody seems to forget last year the top 2 big 10 schools got dominated in their bowl games. NOBODY in the mediocre 11 should be above the top 4 or 5 SEC teams
