You should go watch a game in the MBSD some time. It will be extremely fricking loud.

I doubt Bama had prepared for the option going into that game.


So you admit Nick isn't that good of a coach. You'd have to be pretty dumb to not have expected JJ to at least come in a few series and run the option.

Ell, if you could ever show me a single post where your response showed a modicum of intelligence - I'd bow to your superior intellect. However most, if not all, your posts are a pathetic attempt for you to bully or try and feel superior to whomever youre berating rather than addressing the topic at hand. For once, try to address the topic rather than whining like a 7 year old spoiled child.

I can thank LSU and the University of Alabama for my "ignorant" education - who do you thank?

By a long shot. LSU and Bama are clearly in a league of their own this year. If people dislike the current system, lobby for the old one where the NC was decided before bowl season.

Agree with the noise in the dome. I was there in 92 when Teague took that pick 6 from Gino. I thought the roof was going to cave in.

Elleshoe, simply put - you're an idiot if you can't see the similarity. While the FBS doesn't have a true playoff the intent is to place what the Harris, Coaches and Computer polls deem number #1 and #2. If the AQ conferences didn't want an LSU-ALabama type matchup they would have provided rules to prevent it. Instead, there are specific instances in the rules that allow for three teams from the same conference to play in BCS bowls. Hence the comparison of the NFL and MLB and their rematches. If you ever want to be a real lawyer and not someone that plays one a message board you need a better grasp of the real world.

I'd say by this statement and your inability to understand the real world you're going to make a great e-lawyer.

not a good idea. I have 6 hardcore LSU fans on board that are depending on me to get them home safe to their family. I am off watch right now, but I come on tower at midnight and these guys want to crew change tomorrow at 6 am and get home to see their wives and kids. The LSU fans I meet out here are really cool, they turned me on to this site. Edit: Oh I see why you are such a little bitch, your an accountant. My LSU buds up here want to kick your arse just for the fun of it.

That insult is old now. And its not really an insult. They had a pretty darn good team. Not a big name, but well coached and would have beaten every SEC team cept UF that year. ULM in 07 is still an effective slight, however.

Bama would have won that game and escaped like LSU did against Troy the next year if Jimmy Johns had held on the football like it was his drug stash.

You busting me for pargraph breaks? come on, if you got a problem with the content, give your opinion and lets talk football. My post was longwinded but very easy to comprehend.

And why would they want to do such a thing? Because it would get the best ratings? Or to determine a true, outright national champion and eliminate shared titles?

If the writers deemed it necessary to vote USC #1 in the '03 season, why on Earth would they not do the same thing this time with LSU? USC had 1 loss as well as LSU, but it wasn't against LSU. LSU will have one more win against a tougher schedule, and your loss will be against LSU.

There is no comparison to a playoff system that can be found in the present college bowl system. Playoff contains the word play. None of what happens come bowl time is determined by what happens on the field. Even conference tie-ins are liable to be changed.

When LSU and Alabama started the regular season, they knew their schedules, they knew they had a conference championship game, but you can't tell me they knew one would have to go 2-0 against the other to win the BCS crystal ball.

Teams meet in the regular season all the time in professional sports, then later meet in the playoffs to determine their champion. Happens in state playoffs every week in every state. This is a known quantity. LSU and Alabama knew they could face the same team in a conference championship game.

But, for all the marbles, using a contrived system to determine opponents for a sport that claims every game counts in order to avoid having playoffs? It is undoubtedly unfair to LSU, and would have been to Alabama, too.

Every Alabama fan that discussed this with me prior to the game in the stands were in agreeance. They all said they didn't think Bama would get another chance based on the game being in Tuscaloosa. If LSU had lost a game, and both teams sat at one loss, I don't see where that's an unfair situation.

But given the present circumstances, there's just no way Alabama can win anything but a share of the title. Should be a great game.

If Bama wins, they get the BCS trophy. If the AP gives LSU the top spot, they have a claim to a NC title as well. It's all good. In fact, it would probably clear up all the bitching about Bama's split titles as well. Maybe even some LSU fans would backtrack about their assertions on USC in 2003?

If LSU wins, you get all the marbles. That's a championship that should truly be celebrated.
