What is better for us? A&M winning and keeping the potential playoff spot, or State winning and boosting our win over them?

I would prefer state to win to make our win more impressive. Rather than keeping UL out of the playoffs. Even with an A&M loss Louisville still isn't guaranteed a spot in the top 4.

Plus I would LOVE for us to be the one's killing their playoff hopes. Some may not think it's possible. If we can get past Georgia and Tennessee that makes our chances better. Those would be 2 better wins regardless of records and would prove we have arrived.

One thing that will help our chances vs louisville will be the chip the older players should have on their shoulders. After the way the past few meetings have gone our guys should be angry and hungry and come out extremely motivated. The fact we play Austin Peay the week before we should be able to rest up a lot of our players and get others some more experience.

State winning does nothing for us. They probably won't make a bowl IMO. I never really expected the SEC to get two teams in the playoffs to begin with. We will still get two teams in the New Years 6, it's just a question whether we get a 3rd in the Orange Bowl.

A&M totally blew it today. Lost to a team with a losing record with having so much to play for. Just helped out UW.

Vanderbilt got absolutely screwed

Fumble was called on field. It was a fumble, imo but it 100% did not have evidence to overturn. Sure enough they get screwed, 2 plays later touchdown
