Imagine this scenario play out....
1. LSU and Bama don't rematch instead one plays Okie State and the other Stanford or Oregon..... whats going to happen? We are going to have two blow outs, SEC Dominance on display big time.... all of the work this year trying to show that the SEC is becoming weaker has been lost as we crush the contenders
2. LSU and Bama rematch in another defensive classic while the others play each other in offensive showcases providing the argument that the winner of these bouts would of/could of beat those SEC offensive less teams
Which scenario is the lessor of two evils? provides you with the best spin job? if you want to downplay SEC dominance....
This is one reason why I am against a rematch. Oh yea there is also that 9_6, lack of conference championship, and rubber match thing going on too....

1 - LSU beats bama convincingly in New Orleans and 95% of the country will holler it should have been someone else.
2 - LSU beats OSU convincingly and 5% of the country will continue to whine and bitch they didn't get a "fair chance".
Either way - it's a win-win for the Tigers.

What irks me is that people just assume when LSU and Bama rematch that it's going to be another 9-6 game. Yeah, the defenses are still going to be nasty, but how quickly folks forget how close both teams were to putting up more points. In Bama's case alone, they missed a ton of FGs and also had a pass that should have been completed at the 2 yardline ripped out of the receiver's hands as he hit the ground. LSU had promising drives that stalled as well. Given the ridiculous amount of time between the SECCG and the BCSNCG, I wouldn't be surprised to see a few wrinkles in both offenses produce some points come January.

Who cares about spin jobs, blowouts, (<--that sounds vaguely sexual) and reputation? The two best teams should play.

If people can't admit that the SEC is the best conference by now, they never will. frick em. If the two best teams are in the SEC according to the BCS, then they should play. We will all find out in 5 days.
If Alabama wins, it will feel a little weird to win the NC without winning the SECC, but the NC won't count any less and I won't enjoy it any less.

I think Bama is the 2nd best team in the country but what if LSU and Bama play and the rest of the SEC goes 0fer and the Big 12-4+2 kicks arse?

Or Bama waxes that arse and everybody in this country says "see I told you so".

I gotta agree with the OP. Nothing against Bama, because I think Bama and LSU are the two best teams in the country. I'd just prefer to see them both beat somebody else to a pulp.
Besides, if there's a rematch, an SEC team will have lost in the BCSNCG for the first time.

People who hate the SEC don't get an opinion on who plays. Especially since they were set up and gave it away.
You don't like 2 SEC teams in the NCG? handle your weak arse schedule and stop us on the field. Nobody gives a frick about what you write or say on tv.
