    There is a story out by the AP arguing the LSU should already get a share of the title (the AP title) if they are rematched against Bama and then lose to them. So the AP is thinking what you are thinking.

    Georgia Bulldogs vs. LSU Tigers - Recap - December 03, 2011 - ESPN

    Of course, the BCS will vote the winner of the NCG as the national champ.

    People here have different takes on this scenario, and it has gotten heated at times. I'll leave the bickering for others, so people can decide for themselves.

    This is exactly why LSU has to play Oklahoma State.

    This is a similar scenario as to what we saw in 2003. The facts are not identical, but the similarities are indisputable.

    LSU was #2 in the polls. Oklahoma lost in the Big-12 CG. The AP poll vaulted USC to the #1. The BCS "poll" kept OU at #1. USC got the shaft in the big game and we beat OU. Result: split poll.

    It could happen again. The possible set-up is there. Let's avoid it. Put OSU in the game.

    Edit: makes me wonder if the AP will vault OSU over Bama.

    Why do you guys want to play Ok. St.? It seems like most of you think that by playing them, it will be a walk in the park. It won't be. It also seems like you're scared if we play Bama again. Bama is the 2nd best team in the country. Put them in the big game so we can beat them again.
