My thoughts exactly. I'd figure it to be a split title (in a close loss to Alabama on a neutral field). In an ideal world a best of three would take place.. game two on a neutral field, any potential game three in tiger stadium. I think LSU would win it outright though If we get past Arkansas and Georgia with no injuries at least.

I don't really get that logic. If an NFL team beats someone in the regular season and loses in the Super Bowl it isn't a split title. The same is true in every sport. Congrats for winning in the regular season, sorry you couldn't win when it counted.

I would think a split championship would be more possible if Arkansas wins and you have SEC West at 1,2,3 going into the BCS game. The third team could have claim to be better if they beat the BCS champion and didn't get a chance to play for it on the field in the title game.

The loser of the BCS game will not be AP champions though.
