isnt this really the consolation prize herbie was struggling to articulate tonight on the BCS show?

not so much the SEC championship LSU gets to play for and bama doesnt, but on its body of work, LSU will be guaranteed a split NC, at worst (with both LSU and bama at 1 loss).

to me, the other silver lining is the BCS will take a major credibility hit.

If Bama wins...LSU can have half the AP championship if it makes them happy.

But the fact is the BCS championship will be awarded solely to the winner of the BCS NCG.

It's either all or nothing. BCS crystal or bust.

Otherwise, every LSU fan is a hypocrite after what happened in 2003 with USC.

LSU fans can't be happy about an AP only Title after all the griping they did over USC in '03.

I can see if the game is close and Alabama wins by 3 a split title being the right thing. Obviously a big if but if Alabama wins by 14+ why should it be split?

to be clear, i think its BS. but that's the argument herbie and the like need to make to salvage any bit of credibility for the BCS.

either way, if LSU wins (and i think they do with wider margin this time), they get the whole enchilada. if bama wins, its yet another asterisk "championship".

that's how you placate the other conferences who argue they deserve the 'shot'.

otherwise, there is a good chance for a mutiny in the BCS.

All this whining before the game is even played. The winner will be the BCSNC - the loser will be the loser.

I would have no problem if Bama won the game, but the AP decided to award them their national championship. Seems reasonable. But if Bama does win then I'll not hesitate to call the 2011 Bama team the BCS national champs - just as LSU correctly refers to their 2003 team as BCS national champd.
