Let's see this literally happened a few years prior with Florida blocking a last second FG by south carolina in 2006 that preserved their chance at a national title


You named one that was 7 years ago. Name another. It almost NEVER happens.

ol. You act like auburn threw an 18 yard touchdown pass. It was a 73 yard prayer that was tipped by a defender


No, you just a dumb gump. AU completes an 18-20 yard pass for the first down, good chance we still win. That would have put us near midfield and Parkey would not have needed much more to get in FG range which would have won it. Also, Sammy Coates was wide open at the UGA 40. Nick sees him instead of Louis, we kick the game winning fg instead a couple of plays later.

Admit it, you just a dumb gump and are in over your head right now.

Holy shite. Yes let's just assume that in an alternate universe where the most likely scenario plays out that the hypothetical only includes "we still probably would have won"

You're a special kind of stupid dude

Blocked kicks are a regular occurence (Remember Cody blocked two that game, so it's not like it was a fluke, we had a matchup advantage there). 73 yard hail mary's on 4th and 18 are not

It's clear who is in over their head. I've already cited a recent game saving, title saving block. I eagerly await your example of another 70 yard hail mary on 4th and 18

LSU got fricked in 2011 but they got extremely lucky in 2003 and 2007 so I guess it was karma coming back to finally kick them in the arse.


I will give you 2007. That was the craziest situation in the history of the BCS. But your either a troll, stupid, or just don't know the facts about 2003. There was never any doubt that LSU deserved to be in the game. The debate was about either USC or Oklahoma.

This is stupid.

Bama's 11 title was one of a kind in the BCS era every single bit as much as LSU's 07 title was.

In 2007 there was only 1 BCS conference champ with 1 loss, so it was LSU or a bunch of other 2 loss teams. It was lucky as all hell, but LSU wasn't chosen from among other teams that accomplished more than LSU did.

Alabama played for the title in 2011 for no reason other than the fact that the Big XII champ was OSU instead of UT or OU. THE END.

Nebraska and Oklahoma both made the conference championship game though.

So really it's:
# of teams to not play in their conference championship game then play in the MNC- 1.

Well if that's how it works then Bama is owed an awful lot of bad karma. Can't wait to see that check cashed!
