I don't think anyone doubts that Alabama was the best team in 2011. But when you stacked their actual resume up with Oklahoma State from that year, OSU honestly appeared, to me at least, to be more deserving. I think the "eye ball test" was way to heavily weighted that year.


It also seems very unfair that LSU had to play an extra game against Georgia in the SECCG, which theoretically could have knocked them out of the NCG should they have slipped up, while Alabama, simply because they LOST to LSU, got to take the week off and didn't have to risk anything.

The whole situation was kind of awkward.


That's all just too bad.

I'm just thinking out loud. I don't have a big problem with it all, because at the end of the day, the best team went home with the crystal. I'm just saying the dynamics with which it all unfolded was kind of awkward, to me at least.

I respect your 2011 squad as one of the best defenses ever fielded, with an offense that featured one of the better RBs to play in the SEC and a QB that didn't make mistakes.
