But a neutral field may be worth 3-4 points.

You guys wouldn't rather see the best two teams battling on a neutral field over an undefeated team taking on a 3-loss team?



but it would be a REMATCH

no 2 teams in the same division can both go undefeated

Did you want to see a Tennessee vs. Florida rematch every year from 96-01 (except 99)? The idea is dumb.

Scared to leave the state of GA?

We can't win a national championship outside of NOLA

But a team could pull of a narrow victory with home field advantage.

If they were the best two teams in the conference, I'd want to see them play on a neutral field.

nope you get one shot

you shouldn't have to beat a team twice, especially a really good team.

home field advantage is all psychological. the fields are the exact same size

So you'd rather a 3 loss USCe or Florida have a rematch against BAMA or LSU? what if there were 3 regions like the PAC 14 was proposing?

actually, to correct the thread title, the BCS championship should be the two best teams, and that's LSU and BAMA.

I am cool with the SEC east champ being USCe or Florida.

It may be difficult for LSU to beat Florida twice.

I think you should be the conference champion to qualify to play for the best in the nation.

Not necessarly. I actually think the two best teams may both come from the West.

So the NFL should do away with the NFC and AFC too?

No the championship should be east vs. west but i could get behind the locaton of the game moving.

No sir. They have playoffs.

I just think the conference championship should feature the two best teams in the conference.

How hard do you want to make it to win a National Championship

With Media Darlings like Boise State who are going to run the table,

you are telling me you think Alabama, should have to beat LSU not once, but TWICE... just to get to play for a National Title?

I think the winner of the toughest conference (SEC) should automatically get into the NC game.

The ONLY reason we have an SEC Championship game, is in the event that 2 teams from opposite divisions who didn't play each other both end up with the same record

Everything else is has already been decided on the field through division play

Well if you can guarantee that, maybe I'll buy in

But your idea makes no sense as things currently are. Oklahoma or Texas wont even have to play in a championship game...

once less chance they'll lose
