I think Oklahoma would probably jump Alabama if they won just because even BIG 12 teams like Texas A&M and Baylor have incredibly high computer numbers.

However, it seems that most LSU fans coming up with a million anecdotal reasons why most voters will lower Alabama never take into account that many voters will also feel simply that Alabama is the best team, period.

Which I'm sure most LSU fans completely agree with and is why they, understandably, want Oregon or Oklahoma instead.

Your post is spot on, imo.

From a competitive standpoint I don't think any LSU fan would be worried about playing Bama in the Superdome. My main points against LSU playing Bama (assuming LSU is undefeated at that point), is it would 1)render the game in November virtually meaningless and 2)basically reward Bama for losing that game, thus not having to risk losing the opportunity in the SECCG.

As I stated earlier, I think voters will consider key games played in November as "playoff" games when considering Oregon, Oklahoma and Alabama...not who they think is the best team.
