The only travesty from that season is that Alabama didn't play OSU in the championship. They certainly belonged there more than LSU.

The first week of august every year I call the lsu AD office and ask if I will get a ring if lsu wins the bcs/playoffs. If the answer is yes then I have to abide by bcs/playoff results. If no, I am free to choose my own champion. In 2011 lsu was 13-1 and bama was 12-1 and I was not at risk to get a ring so I am able to choose lsu as my 2011 national champion.

If you are in position to get a ring if a team wins the playoffs then you have to abide by the decision of the playoffs. For example the K lady fan from lsu gets a ring if lsu baseball wins the baseball playoffs. So the k lady must follow the playoff redults since she was ring-at-risk and Florida in 2017 is her baseball champion.

I hope I have explained the term ring-at-risk okay. For example, the team water boy is ring at risk since he gets a ring if his team wins championship. Me as a wal-Mart street fan, will not get a ring if my team wins championship.
Water boy has to abide by playoff results, walmart street fan does not. It's all about the ring and if you have a chance to get one. That determines if you have to abide by bcs/playoff results

Considering Georgia Southern has come in and immediately been a Sun Belt power, they were probably about equal to ULL and Tulsa.

OT loss at home vs #1 team>losing in front of 40000 people to a 5-5 team. That team would have literally not made a bowl if OKSU didn't choke. Find me a team that has played for the nattie with a loss that bad

The bigger question is, why didn't Gundy sandbag Alabama.




Because Gundy was a pussy hurt little bitch who wanted no part of that game. He was quiet as a mouse while Saban was hitting every available media outlet pitching his team. Gundy betrayed his players, his school, and his fans all because he didn't want to face the music over his behavior when Miles left OK ST. Jeff Gundy is not, and never will be, "a man".

The problem with this revisionist history you people like to portray is that you like to pretend Bama somehow unfairly jumped Oklahoma State to play in the title game.

That's not even close to accurate. Following OSU's loss to a 6-6, 5 touchdown underdog, Iowa State - Bama maintained their number 2 ranking the rest of the way.
