How is that relevant? The BCS is about getting the two best teams on the field. Not catering to the fairness for the #1 team.

It will be an absolute joke if Bama makes it in (assuming LSU wins out). I realize the Bama homers want a shot at the championship, but you not only lost on your home field, but will be sitting at home while LSU plays for the SEC crown.


Again, you're making this about LSU. Your point is completely irrelevant in terms of the BCS. The top 2 teams are LSU and BAMA because everybody who was ahead or who would have jumped us has lost.

For those of you who say it's not fair that LSU may have to beat Bama twice to win the NC, you must be against a playoff system...right?

Fair? The world isn't fair. The bcs system is supposed to put the best two teams against each other. Do you agree that Bama is a legitimate #2?

Good lord Bama fans are insufferable, especially for a team who already lost in their shot at LSU. I still think OSU makes up the ground because voters (especially West Coast and East Coast who hate the SEC) will put them high enough to combine with their computer score assuming they win Bedlam.

We beat you in your house, straight up.

I am less than concerned about playing against you guys in Louisiana.

Some LSU fans are just pussies that would prefer to play against a cupcake like Okie St.

if Bama wins, then both teams went 1-1 against eachother and you'll never really have a true champion in people's minds.

Also the "game of the century" was worthless and in fact losing it was actually beneficial.

Bama would only have to beat us once, where we would have to beat yall twice.

theres plenty of reasons it makes no sense.

Bottom line: It's not about you. It's about the BCS. And Bama, of course.

Don't piss on my leg and tell me it is raining. You know damn well you wouldn't want to come to New Orleans to play LSU again.


The hell I wouldn't. I want a challenge in the NCG. Not an easy win. Just because y'all smell like corndogs doesn't mean I wouldn't want to play y'all again.

You know damn well if Alabama had won 9-6 every poster in this thread with a script A next to their name would say LSU is "butthurt", "you had your chance", tough,etc. Y'all are total hypocrites.

From a Bama fan no less.



So, let me get this straight, you do not win your conference, much less your division, get to take a week off while LSU plays in the SECCG, and yet should still get to go to the BCSNCG?

If that us the case then we would have been better off to have lost in Tuscaloosa. Then we could draft/coast behind you into New Orleans.

Makes perfect sense to me (not).

Wrong. It's the BCS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. Whoever wins is the CHAMPION.

his never happened so I'm not sure what point you would be trying to make. Failure. LSU beat UGA twice in 03' and never played them in 07' since they didn't qualify for the championship.



You're right, I thought GA beat LSU in 03'. I was mistaken, it was UT in 01', LSU lost in regular season and won in SECCG.

Same question applies.

I'm not sure about that. The media blowhards wouldn't be sucking us off like they are doing Alabama.

I think our players believe they can beat anybody.
Fans just see it as a difficult situation that we had to play you at home, beat you at home, and play one additional game than you to get to the NC.

Meanwhile you are waiting in the wings, getting healthy, and not playing for the SEC Championship.

Then we have to play you again for with much more on the line than the first time we met.

I think this would be the perfect year for a best 2 of 3 scenario. Schedule it one week after the NC game is played. If BAMA wins in New Orleans we play one more. If LSU wins, NC champs!!
