    It reads:

    (1) LSU is expected to play (2) Alabama in the BCS National Championship Game

    If they are trying to push for that, then they are stupid. Nobody outside of Alabama wants to watch that rematch.

    Whatever happened to all that "let them settle it on the field of play" crap?

    There's obviously one team putting beatdown on the number 10 team in the nation right now.

    That's not worth a few BCS points???

    I hope the voters are smart enough to make up their own minds and not be influenced by this BS propaganda.

    I think Bama can kiss it good bye.

    The announcers for OSU-OU just asked the following question (paraphrase), if you are Okie St. which would you rather, a win against OU or going to the national championship game? Answer from same announcer, "I would think beating OU".

    Really?

    ABC game is essentially an ESPN game. They are partners.

    So the whole thing appears to be rigged.

    They actually have talked it up a little, but it isn't much.

    Yeah I understand CBS doing it because they have a vested interest with the SEC Games.

    But what does ESPN gain from
    Pushing Bama so hard???

    It's funny because each time they show it the score for the Oklahoma-OSU game and Clemson/VA Tech continues to grow. :hihi::hihi::hihi:
