They would have to lose all threeSo LSU can't clinch the division tonight with a win.
They still have Arkansas, Ole Miss and TAMU.
Well if they lose to Ole Miss and TAMU, that puts them in a three way tie with Bama and Ole Miss (if they both win out).
How would that tie breaker work?
If LSU lost to Ole Piss then Ole Piss would win the 3 way tie having beaten Bama and LSU
Abalama may be selling out to stop the run and eliminate Fournette in this game, but a passing team can shred their defense very easily. Look at some of the passes Harris has had against them in the first half.

Correct Brandon Harris isn't that good. We played crappy defense in the first half against him.Right. It's why if I have the choice between and elite running game and an elite passing game I'm taking the passing game. An elite running game is very easy to stop, just outnumber the offense in the box. Doesn't matter if you have Fournette and 5 future pro lineman, 7 can't block 8 or 9. A great passing game can't be stopped that easy though especially if your oline protects well. And if they commit more players to cover the pass you can kill them with draws and screens.
LSU's problem is the same as it always is, no damn QB. Won't cut it against really good defenses. Shouldn't have worked against us either but our DB's had by far their worst game of the year and gave up cheap points.

They generally don't go after good passing QBs and that is one of Les Miles weaknesses. He also doesn't know how to use a good QB or how to develop one and his system isn't QB friendly. However lets hope Feleipe Franks doesn't go to LSU. He's a much better prospect than some of these other QBs LSU generally gets.LSU's evaluation of QB's is just flat out terrible. I don't think they've had even an average QB in a decade, and yet supposed top QB's keep signing there. No lie, any QB they offer instantly raises a red flag for me.

In all seriousness Bama is the exact same way under Saban. They just do it better than LSU. Saban is just a better coach than Miles so he's mkre successful with virtually both coaches having identical styles.
