So who should you of played that was better than Bama since the goal is to have the two best teams.
Based on resume, OSU. I realize Bama's only loss was to LSU and I've already said that Bama deserved it. But rematching 2 teams from the same conference in the same division is just crazy. Both teams play for that championship on that Saturday night during the regular season. It should end there. Again, JMO and I don't blame Bama for wanting to get the NCG last year and even Bama/Saban talking it up. I did have a problem with ESPN blasting it 24/7 till it happened though.

I don't agree with you about that either (wv mizzou losing early) but we can still be e-buds. 
That is, if you can be pals with a mulligan winning mullet man.

So in a flawed system Bama has won 2 BCS titles to our one. In a flawless system, we've won two SEC titles to Bama's one.
That flawed system you speak of is the one that all Division 1 schools agreed to play by at the beginning of the Bowl Coalition that began in 1992 and later morphed into the BCS in 1997. LSU also has 2 titles as a result of this flawed system. As to SEC titles, you really don't want to go there if you're comparing conference titles with Bama. We have 22. But I forgot...LSU fans think anything ever won or achieved before Saban arrived in Baton Rouge in 2000 doesn't count. LSU has a fine tradition of its own but by refusing to acknowledge anything before 2000 because it negates the Bryant and Stallings eras at Alabama is not only laughable but also cheapens the accomplishments of Paul Dietzel, Charlie McClendon, Bill Arnsparger, et.al

You mean, "Based on the fact that we got worked in the NCG and I wish we could have played someone we would have 'shown up' for," right?

How long are LSU fans gonna whine about this? Get over it already! Bama got in the game because everyone ahead of them lost. Much like LSU did in 2007 and I don't recall any of yall complaining about Miles campaigning on the premise that "we are undefeated in regulation". Did you also whine that Oklahoma shouldn't have been in the 2003 BCSNC game against LSU since they lost the Big 12 title game? Of course not, because LSU won that one. It's not that Bama was IN the BCSNC game last year, it's that they WON! I suppose you would have said LSU didn't deserve a rematch if 9-6 had been the other way? We both know the answer to that.
I don't think I'll get over it b/c I choose not to...those are just my opinions. OSU was not ahead of Bama but they should have been. Did anyone even consider their ONE loss was in the middle of the week and after one of their coaches passed away?
2007 was completely different than 2011. Why did Bama deserve to play LSU when they already had their chance to beat us? What if LSU would have lost in the SECCG?
And YES, Oklahoma should have never been in the NCG in 2003. It should have been LSU/USC.
Had the roles been reversed last year I would have loved for LSU to have another shot at Bama but would not have expected it. I've already stated that I don't blame Bama for getting to the NCG and clearly they were worthy...they WON!

Ok, then I don't think I'll take anything you have to say on the subject seriously anymore, because I choose not to.

Yes. Everyone considered it at the appropriate time last year and eventually disregarded it. The spot goes to the two best teams, not the two most deserving of a pity invite.

Only insofar as LSU lost more games -- and to worse opponents -- in '07 than 'Bama did in '12.

So basically, you're a hypocrite and a sore loser. You have nothing to contribute to this discussion whatsoever.

Alabama has a crystal football for winning the NC in 1992, 2009, and 2011. The Coaches' Trophy began with the Bowl Coalition, not the BCS.

The problem is that as time goes on, your avatar and your shouting this mulligan shite over and over looks less and less relevant and more and more petty. It's time to let it go. Even the trolls have for the most part. You choose to live in it.
I've already said I need to change the AV...just left it up since 1/9 because I do not come here unless during season. Even then it isn't often.
Why let it go? I'm not sure what everyone's fascination is with discussing events of the past in a calm, rational manner. Somehow this translates to "butthurt" and "letting it go". I rather enjoy the banter and like reading different points of view as should others unless they are closed minded. What's wrong with that?

Well DUH! I did NOT want to play Bama again. Everyone kept saying "to be the best you've got to beat the best". Well, we DID! That's what we did during the regular season. Bama lost, so did OSU. LSU had not played OSU. Why not beat a team we hadn't beat before? I still wonder what would've happened had LSU lost the SECCG...who would have been in the NCG?

While I think you should chill and move on, I have to say that I admire a woman who knows her football. I have dated women who didn't know what a "down" was, much less a screen pass or a zone defense so I have a tremendous appreciation for any woman who not only enjoys the game but is also capable of spirited debate about this great sport.

Oh, I can understand. Don't get me wrong. The problem is that this isn't a criteria for deciding the participants in the BCSCG.

This does not preclude your opponent from playing you again in the postseason, obviously.

Alabama and OSU. And it would have possibly been the most bitter pill LSU fans could have swallowed because we all know that 'Bama would have gone in drier than the Mojave desert on them, as LSU would have. The outcome of a Bama-OSU matchup or a LSU-OSU matchup would have been proof positive that OSU did not deserve to be there.

Look, if you're going to be an arse and have a closed mind about other's opinions, then so be it. But don't project your negativity on me. I'm not a hypocrite in saying I would want LSU to have a rematch last year with reversed roles b/c I've already stated that Bama deserved one, which you conveniently choose to ignore. I just think it never should have happened. NO ONE wanted to see it except ESPN and Bama fans and ESPN lobbied nonstop until it happened. OSU did NOT get a fair shake as you state but oh well, it happens. I give Bama credit for doing what they had to do and getting the win, not sure how that makes me a sore loser.
And no, LSU 07 was completely different than Bama 2011 in that LSU actually DID win the SEC and Bama did not.

I know more about football than my husband. I've gotten really good at calling a penalty when it happens,
But yes, I do respect the Tide (even have a Bama sweatshirt if you can believe it). And yes, I do want to keep the NC with the SEC so it's up to Bama now!

I think LSU would have gotten in regardless of the SECCG. They had an amazing body of work with wins over Oregon, West Virginia, Arkansas, and Alabama. Much like Oklahoma in 2003, who got annihilated by K-State in the Big 12 CG, their strength of schedule would have still been high enough to get them in.
