re: Game that may have decided 2007 national title...

UGA was clearly the best team that year

LSU doesn’t beat UGA with RP11 at QB

Or with Flynn.

Mizzou losing to Oklahoma in the Big 12 CG that year…oh what could have been.

Mizzou was unbelievable that year.

quote:

---

Tennessee wins that game if their QB protects the ball in the 4th quarter

---

LSU wins by 20+ if Flynn isn't injured against Arkansas

Two can play that game. I'll Also add the pick six that stole the win for LSU was Zenon jumping the route.

So unbelievable that Chasey Danielle and crew got drubbed by 3 TDs in the Big XII CCG?

Yes. A dropped interception away from beating Oklahoma in Norman earlier in the year.

Why anyone would believe that Richt would have beat Les in the SEC Championship, I'll never know. Richt was Charlie Brown to CFB's Lucy.

She would tee it up, and pull the ball away from him at the last second.

2007 was a great year. Perhaps one of Richt's best teams. They were certainly the hottest.

But, we lost two games. Everyone always says "RICHT JUST NEEDED A LITTLE LUCK. IT TAKES SOME LUCK TO WIN A NC!" Sometimes, you make your own luck, and you do that by winning the games that you are supposed to win, and winning some of those that you aren't.

Congratulations on 2007, LSU. You "earned" it?

2007 is the weirdest season in the past 25 yrs. Missouri was #1 at one point, Kansas and Boston College #2 at one point.

I have wondered what the 4-team playoff would have been that year.

I would have selected Ohio St., LSU, Oklahoma, Georgia, in that order. Could have had LSU v Georgia for the title. I'd pick Georgia over Ohio St in that matchup. Ohio St was getting exposed by SEC speed at that time, and the year before was when UF beat them to win the title.

That year the final BCS standings were:
1. Ohio St 11-1 Conf Champ, the clear #1 all year, but got exposed by LSU
2. LSU 11-2 Conf Champ went from #7 to #2 by virtue of winning the SECCG
3. Va Tech 11-2 ACC Champ
4. Oklahoma 11-2 Conf Champ
5. Georgia 11-2 Lost to two unranked teams, but played well down the stretch
6. Missouri 11-2 Division Co-Champ, #1 in BCS going into CCG, got demolished by OU

And it would have happened quite literally.

That's how LSU beat South Carolina. I know most of the trolls on this board are legit retards, but that 2007 LSU team was the most clutch LSU team I've ever seen. Healthy, I'd pick them to win the BCS championship in any year besides 2008 or 2005.

Game went into three overtimes with Tenn winning by 2. Kentucky had not beaten the Vols since 84. Game gave Tenn the east title instead of Georgia. Georgia could have had the hottest team in football going up against a backup QB. I guess we will never know

Maybe...but this Georgia team:

Lost to a 6-6 South Carolina team at home;
Was blown out by UT in Knoxville; and
Squeaked by a 5-7 Vanderbilt team by 3 in Nashville.

I think LSU would have taken Georgia, had they met in Atlanta.
