re: Another anti rematch commentary - ESPN's Rick Reilly

I don't think anyone believe OSU...or Oregon...or anyone for that matter are better than Alabama.

Pretty much everyone BELIEVES lsu and bama are the two best teams. But it's just the fact that Alabama already had a shot at LSU, and others haven't. So why would we (the country) give Alabama a SECOND shot at LSU when other teams, who may very well be the best team in the country, don't even get a FIRST shot at LSU.

Hell, even if you put Alabama in the game and they win...What does it prove? What is accomplished? Yeah, Alabama would be BCS champions, but what does that tell us? LSU would have a better record than Bama (13-1 vs 12-1) and would have split the two games with Alabama. So what exactly is the point of putting Bama vs LSU again...as it would accomplish nothing. If LSU wins, well of course they did....what did you expect after LSU beat Alabama on the road Nov. 5? Of course LSU would win the home game. And if Bama wins, see my prior statement, it actually makes the situation more chaotic than prior to the BCSCG.
