I know. They can keep their "Reggie Bush" fake/tainted championship.

Facts don't keep me from hating them. With a passion.

Why is that? LSU would have had it's shot at #1 also, no redo, right?

Saban will be on college gameday to get more exposure for bama, so they can beg for second place


Just for shits and giggles, they should make him actually get on his knees, clasp his hands and look directly into the camera when he starts begging.

All that game proved was that Alabama and LSU are very even teams. That is why there needs to be a rematch


and there it is! The game was not a loss in the Gumps eyes.

Problem is, it's a loss in the eyes of everyone else

That is the other issue at play here. The media in general HATES that defense wins championships, in any sport. Remember when San Antonio was winning rings playing the NBA's best defense? The only label the media slapped on them was "boring." Same principle applies here, only now the issues of SEC hate and BCS convolution are added to the fray.

Gotcha. Any info on the RB? Or am I remembering wrong info?


Could not find anything. But I do not follow Big XII football so they could be missing him as well.

Nope. 9-6 proved that LSU was the winning team which means that they are the better team.

Didn't they teach you guys math in gump high school?

If a higher score than your opponent = a win

If a win = you are better than the team that lost

Then, the fact that LSU scored higher than Bama means that LSU is better than Bama.

Kinda like how every Rantard like yourself are pleading with all their being to keep Bama out.

LSU fans are the ones begging.

Go find another LA or NY lib sportswriter who hates the SEC & post more of his bullshite.

I think "glaringly" is the word you are looking for here, Gump.

We do. Oklahoma State. Or Virginia Tech. You know. A team that won its conference and hasn't already lost to us. Or even Stanford. A team that at least hasn't already lost to us.

who am I pleading with?

Did I write an email to some news journalist? Am I, or is my coach, going to college gameday to beg for something?


We did our talking/begging/campaigning where it mattered. On the field.

I saw they lost Dominique Whaley (RB) back in October. That may be who I am thinking of.

What facts have been presented that Bama is the #2 team in the nation?




Fact: our single loss was to the #1 team in the country and was a 3 pt loss in overtime.

Fact: the #3 team's loss was to an unranked team


They should really let teams play more than just one game a season. Basing the BCS CG bid on a one-game season seems kinda sloppy and haphazard.

Nobody is pleading. We are just stating the obvious:

We already beat you guys. Why schedule another game where the winner is already known? Doesn't seem fair to the fans.

Honest, serious question for LSU fans: Why is losing to the #1 team in the middle of the regular season an automatic disqualifier for the #2 spot at the end of the regular season?

According to Rick Reilly, the ONLY team you can lose to that disqualifies you from any consideration for the BCS Title game is the #1 team. A team could lose to NW Montana Tech or SE North Dakota Tech or Prairie View and still be qualified for the #2 position at season's end while a loss to the other BCS Title game participant is unforgivable. Think about how insane that logic is.

Dude, you post a dozen anti-rematch threads a day. You are by far the most sad & pathetic Rantard on here & will cling to any little morsel of anti-SEC hate that's written if you think it will get a rise out of one Bama fan.

Go get a fricking life.

If they are in the same conference and division of said conference, then yes, losing to #1 disqualifies you.

Why play a game where the outcome has already occurred?

So Iowa State is better than Okie State and y'all think they are the number #2 team in the country? Kind of diminishes what LSU accomplished in BDS. With your logic, y'all better take care of Georgia in the CG or voters might not think your win against bama is a good win.

Take a look around bro. If you didn't know any better you'd think LSU and OSU are sister universities or some shite.
