How'd those NCGs end up? Did the better team win?

@ #17 Kentucky L 37–43 3OT
Arkansas (Battle for the Boot) L 48–50 3OT
Both went to triple OT's and both teams were good that year. Throw in the Va Tech OOC destruction and the SEC CCG win over the Vols and I am not sure ESPN really had to help the Tigers.
However, I can send some helicopters if it makes you happy.

Virginia Tech, Oklahoma, Missouri, USC, and Kansas were all just as deserving.
We were ranked ahead of all of these teams BEFORE we defeated Tennessee in the SECCG, """EXCEPT""": Mizzou and Kansas.
Well, Mizzou lost their last game, and Kansas had the 140th ranked SOS - which is figured into the BCS point calculations.
LSU defeated Top 10 Tennessee to win the SECCG, which catalpulted them ahead of Kansas in the BCS standings.
How in hell were teams we were ranked AHEAD of more deserving ?????
One of those - former #2 Va.Tech was beaten by SIX TOUCHDOWNS in Baton Rouge!
Wow....

So that LSU 48-7 win over Va Tech that year meant nothing?

Who should have played last year? The poles and BCS said Alabama. How is that backing in? Did they jump teams? Or did the teams ahead of Alabama get beat in the final weeks of the regular season? Same goes for LSU in 2007.
It sucked for Auburn in the 2004 game. But should they have jumped the two teams ahead of them without them losing?
And could it be that LSU and Alabama has earned the respect they get. Both of these schools went through a lot to get where they are now. Alabama was a joke on espn for years. And LSU was a forgotten team.
If this is just a flame, go die. But if you are looking for an answer, think about it.

He can cast all he wants but if his line is rotted and old everyone will just break right off.
It's one thing to troll and get Hookups. If you can't get it in the boat it doesn't count for shite

better team that day? ok. Best team over the course of the season? Debatable at best.

The people at ESPN are currently working their collective asses off to let an 8...no, wait, 6...no, that's not it...ah, yes, the Greatest of BCS Era 3 loss Cutcliffe Ole Miss team that lost to Memphis (as well as the actual one loss BCS winner, LSU) into the title game.
This is silly. With the exception of 04 Auburn, not a single deserving SEC team has been left out of the title game, and that was the year when two other traditional powerhouses were also undefeated (plus Utah and Boise State, iirc.) And it was the computers that really killed Auburn, placing OU above USC because computers still operate on the GIGO principle. When another SEC program does the job, it'll get in the title game. Florida did. Auburn did on 2010. UT did in the very first BCSNCG. Had UGA beat Bama last year, they would have been in.
What a whiny topic this is.

Ole Miss will never see only 2 or less losses, so this something the Klan's team will never have to worry about.
And they beat the living shite out of OSU, proving their worth.
And they beat the living shite out of LSU and Notre Dame, proving their worth.

In 2007 I would say UGA was just as deserving as LSU...As for Bama, the teams ahead of them collapsed under pressure. Bama deserved to be there as much as anyone. Bama got beat, but they lost at the right time.

oh really? One wins their division and the SECCG, the other does neither and they are equally deserving?

I believe your perspective here is skewed as you are an LSU fan.

I'm not, and he's right, at least in that particular case. LSU had a better argument than UGA.
