What an abysmal mindset.

Mizzou isn't a good football team. They can lose to anybody on a given night

I don't think that's accurate.
Starting with this weekend, if every outcome that is "supposed" to happen occurs, it's likely Texas v Alabama in the SECCG. LSU gets to the SECCG (vs. Texas) in the scenario you have screenshotted . But there is one unexpected outcome on yours...Arkansas beating Mizzou on the road...that would have to happen. If Mizzou won that game and every other outcome occurred like what you have on the screenshot it would be Alabama v Texas.

But there are other ways too that we’ve outlined.

might have already been posted, but I have Georgia beating Tennessee and Arkansas beating Mizzou gets us to No. 2...the South Carolina/Mizzou game not being important...

You might want to redo it.
Edit: If Mizzou beats South Carolina then we need them to lose to Miss State and Arky then also have Vandy beat Tennessee. So we really need South Carolina to win

This is correct...
Two things must happen:
1. LSU wins out
2. Georgia beats Tenn (this is Georgia's last conference game)
Then any of the four scenarios...
Scenario one : Missouri loses to South Carolina and Arkansas
Scenario two: Alabama loses to Auburn or Oklahoma.
Scenario three: Auburn beats A&M. Texas loses to Arkansas or A&M.
Scenario four: Texas A&M and Vanderbilt win last week
With the way this season has gone, nothing is out of the realm of possibility.

Of course there are. I was simply responding to that particular post and the one that said LSU was "in the driver's seat". That's not really true. It's going to take LSU winning out and an unexpected result or two (such as Mizzou losing at home to Arkansas or Auburn beating A&M followed by A&M then beating Texas; or Vandy beating Tenn.) to make that happen.
Possible? Sure.
Probable? If someone were giving a statistical analysis the odds would probably be well less than 25%.

I asked AI and it said 50-60%

IF A&M and LSU both win out the only other game we must have is Vandy beating Tenn, then we are in at 6-2. It doesn't matter if Mizzou beats Ark. Mizzou & Bama would still be below us. Of course if we win out and OU upsets Bama then we are in no matter what else happens.
Posted on 11/11/24 at 12:19 pm to Dwainwright
Ya A&M winning out would likely have us in. We really need Mississippi State to somehow beat Mizzou at home.
Then we’d only need Arkansas over Mizzou OR Vandy over Tennessee

LSU is in decent shape to make SECCG...just need Arkansas to do us a solid against Mizzou, assuming all other games go as expected...

There's nothing insane about LSU's chances. It's a longshot, but Fred out of the realm of possiblities

Probably, but the one caveat is that Ewers isn’t going to beat you with his legs, so maybe we match up better and could pull it off.
I’d rather us get the chance than not.
