When the BCS matchup was announced, I posted the question and was critisized by many LSU fans for originally bringing it up. Most said there was no pressure on the team; fans if anybody. Looking back now, how much pressure did the rematch really put on the players, and specifically CLM?

Hard to say. Bama had more to prove by being elected into the game. That may have helped them.
No excuses for LSU though.
When you have two very strong teams that play twice in one year, it's not uncommon that they would split the games.
Bama just won the game for the BCS Title.
Congrats to them.

Most have noted how lifeless LSU looked prior to the game. It probably did play a role in the outcome, but I think CLM sticking with Jefferson played a bigger role.

It must have. I mean a team that goes 12-0 including beating the #2 team at their stadium, then getting 'rewarded' by having to play another high ranked team in their home state for the SEC title, then having to play a rematch against the same team it beat, tends to put pressure on you.
Especially when 80% of rematch games in bowls have been won by the loser of the first game, and many by large scores.
And especially when the opponent in the NCG is "perceived" to be one of the two best teams, but came in second in their own division.
My question. Why do we even """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" H A V E """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
