LSU was the best team that year and they proved it by beating Alabama on the road in the most hyped up regular season game we have ever seen.


You could make that argument, and it would be a good one. OR, you could say Alabama dominated in the bigger game that was hyped more on a bigger stage on a neutral site. The first game was so even it was near impossible to tell who the better team was. And, again, I can't think of another team that year that was better than LSU OR Alabama.

I'm a little shocked to see anyone say they do not want to see the two best teams play for the National Championship. I believe there has been precedence that two teams that have met in the regular season then met in a national championshp game. Not positive, but I think I saw tha somewhere.

Is this not the system we were trying to fix?

But there was also a more recent precedent that when two teams played in the regular season and one lost, that knocked them out of the NC game. (see OSU vs UM 2006, i.e. UF's 1st BCS NC) This would be a much more similar scenario to what happened in 2011.
