Why not?
Bama lost to LSU in the "game of the century" that everyone knew was an elimination game.
LSU lost to Arkansas as the #1 team in the last game of the reg season.
Florida almost didn't even get to play for the championship in '06, because OSU and Michigan were supposedly the 2 best teams and had they done that rematch, the best team would have been watching on TV.
Champion =\= best team necessarily.
Saban inexplicably decided to forego a likely game winning field goal and they ended up losing a game they should have won. It happens. They are still the best team.
It doesn't matter, but it is the truth.

You can't mix these two, troll! 2011 and 2007 are completely different scenarios. At least 2007 LSU won the SEC West and SECCG. 2011 Alabama had no business in the title game even though they were lauded as the "best" team.
Add to that, the 2011 Tide lost at home!
