Will this be the end of the BCS? It no longer works

Please, no flames or taunts, it's a legit question.

Now, I'm a huge LSU fan, and I can acknowledge if we lost Nov 5th I'd want a rematch. I also admit that while I hope and believe LSU will run the table, Alabama is the team most capable of beating us (in my opinion).

So- let's talk football politics. One point is that for all the current hype of a rematch, most fans of schools outside the SEC are tired of hearing how the SEC is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Right now, Oklahoma St, Virginia Tech and Stanford (am I leaving anyone out?) still have the opportunity to match or surpass Alabama's record. OSU and VT will also have conference championships on their side, while Stanford will have, if not the Heisman Trophy winner, then the best QB in the nation (and a total of 2 losses in the last 2 seasons). Currently, the Alabama arguments are "who'd you lose to"; even Saban came out with that line yesterday when he mentioned that his loss was in OT to LSU.
The other side of that coin is "what'd you win"; right now Alabama has no answer to that. No conference, no division (not even a split division and sitting at home on a tiebreaker). OSU would have 11-1 with a Big 12 title, and VT would be 12-1 with the ACC title and having won the ACC Championship game. Stanford is in Alabama's shoes- a great record and no hardware.

So- if you decide (as, say a Michigan fan and voter) that you won't give the SEC a title on Selection Sunday, you must do it with vote tinkering. You can't split up the pool, because those who will vote Alabama will not be splitting theirs.

Do you vote AGAINST Alabama- meaning take the most likely team to edge them? If so, I'd say that's OSU. The computers will favor them, so I'd say they are the best team to choose- if your purpose is to avoid the rematch.

Do you vote for the best credentials? If so, I'd say that's Virginia Tech. 12-1 and playing in the conference championship is no small feat. And really, VT historically is no stranger to this stage, it's actually kinda strange to hear no national love for them at all.

Do you go ahead with Alabama? If so, what about the repercussions? Why, for example, would the other conferences continue to support the BCS at all (and we already know the Big 10 and Pac 12 would gladly revert to the Rose Bowl in a heartbeat)? While they might look better on TV, they didn't win a major conference. And to attack their schedule- their lone out-of-conference marquee win was at Penn St, who's good but shouldn't be considered a trump card. All of their claims ride on playing a close home game against LSU, and dominating in a weakened SEC.

For that matter, the Sugar Bowl has some influence here too. It's currently likely that while they get the BCS championship, they also will put on a bowl with no appeal of any sort. Assuming LSU beats UGA, the Sugar gets-- what? Houston against Michigan? Gee, that's really gonna sell tickets.

Regardless, there will be plenty of screaming when the pairings come out. I kinda think the reason the media is pushing Alabama so hard is to break the BCS once and for all, that all those talking heads who currently want the rematch will howl with indignation on OSU and VT's behalf. I think Alabama is just a pawn in their push for a playoff.
