What I don't understand from everyone is about UA's schedule being weak, it may of well have been but lets say Alabama and LSU had swapped schedule's and UA beat everyone but LSU and lost 9-6. Would there be as big of a problem from the OSU people. Here is a look at the Common Opponents from Alabama and LSU this year.

UA LSU
24-7 Miss State 19-6
38-10 Florida 41-11
42-14 Auburn 45-10
38-14 Arkansas 41-17
37-6 Tennessee 38-7
52-7 Ole Miss 52-3

This may be the very reason the people at ESPN think these teams are the best in the Country. If LSU is a head above everyone else what does that make Bama . I for one don't think Bama will beat LSU in NOLA, because LSU has gotten better since Nov 5th, and im not sure about Alabama but I know UA would absolutely Disembowel OKie Lite.
Okie Lite Loses to Unranked ISU 37-31 in OT
Alabama loses to #1 L.S.U 9-6 in OT
These losses are not even close to similar

It's not the SEC teams... C'mon man. Of course we played a near identical SEC schedule. Everyone knows the SEC is tough week in and week out.

(neutral site) Oregon
@WVU
@Alabama (we won so we can count it)

He means the results are nearly identical.
@Penn State.
You played Oregon, that's the only difference in the two teams schedules.

I got it, but winning vs Oregon @WVU and @UA is significantly better than winning @PSU and losing at home.

If it wasn't for us Oregon would be in the BCSNCG. That alone is a big difference.

The question being asked is had LSU lost instead of Alabama would there be near the outcry? And no, and I think it is justified.

With the way the SEC has performed the last 5 years i would think LSU had a better chance at a rematch losing on the road 9-6 than Alabama does. Anyone can see that LSU would rather play Okie Lite than UA , but who wouldn't thats why there is such a huge outcry if UA had lost to Tennessee or Miss. State it would be different , but losing to #1 LSU in OT makes them the best 1 loss team in the country by far.

Here is a question if the was a play in game such as baseball has who would win at a neutral field .
Alabama or LSU

I'm going to answer your last question first:

We already beat you AT Tuscaloosa. Any advantage from homefield would be gone. So I would easily say LSU and I don't see why this is a question.

You mean if all else was the same and we lost at Bama? of course because we have a better schedule and the loss would be On the road. I don't get what you can't comprehend.

And as to who I would rather play, I would rather play UA because the delusions from the Bammer side of my family has gotten old.

Not with that schedule.
I get what you are pointing out though.
All I was trying to convey is that Oregon is a huge huge difference in the schedules.

dude we aren't saying you aren't the second best or not the best challenge....we're saying you had your chance and missed out. somebody else should get a shot.

If the roles were reversed I could see it playing out like this because we "weren't supposed" to win that game since it was at your house.

y'all choked and should suffer the consequences

Kinda the whole point of the NCG. Putting the 2 best teams against each other. I think LSU just wants a cupcake.

I would think in my mind that you guys would be wanting to play Alabama as well as Coach Miles would. Just for the Simple fact that you know what UA's has got and what will bring to the game. It would also eliminate the task of learning to defend a different scheme and just perfect the things which shut down Alabama last time. But what do i know!

We're undefeated though. Our SOS doesn't matter because we're the only major conference team who hasnt lost a game

We compare Bama and Okie State's resume because those teams both have a loss. Okie State's resume (if they beat OU) will be undeniably better than yours. Hence they are more deserving to go to the BCSCG than Bama.

I'm glad your sigpic and favorite team is back to normal. Let's me know I am supposed to disagree with everything posted after that A.

I actually look forward to it. It would be pretty awesome to actually do. More importantly my disgustingly rich Uncle is a Bama fan. If he swings a box I have a spot.
