I don't care what they wear as long as they win.  As much as it pains me to say that, Texas has a better shot at making the SECCG if Aggy wins.  

We need LSU to lose to Aggy and Alabama for us to finish 1 or 2 with a single loss, assuming UGA wins out.  We have to beat Aggy either way which give us the head-to-head, so we want them doing half the work to clear LSU out of the way.  1-loss LSU finishes ahead of us and I don't see Tennessee knocking off UGA.  Need LSU to lose 2.

Oh come on. There's lots of football yet to be played and there are no weekends off in the mighty S-E-C!!!*

*Am I doing this right???

Oh I get it.  Just need LSU with 2 losses and their big remaining challenges are Aggy and Alabama.  If LSU has a single loss, then we'd need TENN to knock of UGA in Athens for us to get into the SECCG.  I don't see that one happening.

A 1-loss 3rd place finish to UGA and LSU would likely have us in the playoff (can't imagine it wouldn't), but I'd like to get there via the SECCG personally.

http://bball.notnothing.net/sec.php?sport=fb  (It's preloaded with whatever their predictions are, but you can change them and then calculate).

If you pick the assumed favorites in the remaining games, we finish 3rd to 1-loss UGA and 1-loss LSU.  If LSU got past Alabama (game is at Tiger Stadium), then it would just flip-flop unbeaten LSU and 1-loss UGA.  If LSU beats Aggy and loses to Alabama, they still finish ahead of us.  We need LSU to take 2 losses.

Sure, lots can happen and nothing is assumed.  Gotta play the games.  We need to win out, period, and handle our end.  But the path is much more favorable with an Aggy win today and another LSU loss to Alabama in 2 weeks.

You guys rooting for A&M understand that your rooting doesn’t really change the game right? You’re overthinking this. If you hate a team root against them every single week. Period.  It doesn’t change anything so why live with the psychological trauma of wishing good things on them. 
Go Tigers.

Just looked it up and since 2009, aggy has worn 12 (tomorrow will make 13) different helmet designs.  I guess swag trumps turdition in this area.  

We have worn two, with one being a throwback tribute to the 1963 National Championship team with major departure of adding the number above the Longhorn logo.

Yeah but maybe Ole Miss loses a few games starting today (hurts LSUs SOS). Maybe State somehow wins some games (helps ours) 

lots can happen. 

And screw rooting for Aggie.

LSU only needs 1 loss as long as it’s against someone we beat so we have tie breaker over them

I never want to see A&M win.

I never want to see OU win.

I don't care what those victories might do for us, there is no way my mind could flip that switch.

Me too I want aggy to lose every game.  Losing somehow makes them better people.

  1. Who I root for has no impact on a game.
  2. Rooting is about emotion. My emotions are anti-Aggie.
  3. If I have no natural rooting interest, I'll pull for the best option for Texas if it's pretty obvious. 
  4. It's obscure what will happen now. I think if we win out, we'll be fine.

I expect an angry Texas to be finishing out the season.

1 loss is in.

Never, ever cheer for those goobers. I hope Kroger Stadium is 3/4 empty by the third quarter

I hope it collapses

False.  If Texas A&M beats LSU and we beat TAMU, but that's LSU's only loss, they are ahead of us.
