So Bama's justification for playing in the NCG is losing to LSU....this is too funny.

Bama fan: "Hey we deserve to play those guys cuz we er, uh, um........lost to those guys"

The ultimate irony.

Nice reminder of USC choking that last game. I hated that team with a passion mostly b/c of slapdick Pete.

Based on that evidence, it sounds like Okie still has a shot, but they would have to beat OU by at least 2 scores, no?

Here's the thing, if LSU & the gump's aren't in the BCSNCG, it would be a shame. I hate to admit it, but the gump's are no doubt the #2 team in the nation. IMO, it's LSU#1 gump's#2, & then a far drop to the rest of the pack. That being said, I don't think the system would allow 2 SEC teams to make it to the NC game. Personally, about 14 days ago, I wanted to play Stanford or Okie. Then Stanford lost, so it was Okie. Then Okie lost, so now what? LSU is the only undefeated team in the land, & bama's only loss was to LSU, in OT by 3, & all the gump's & their media buddies keep screaming that bama was the better team, they beat themselves, blah blah blah. So today, I want to play the gump's again. Make them come down here for all the marbles, have those hillbillies travel & spend their money in our state & give them another shot at it. This time, no matter the outcome, there will be no excuses for either team. It will be one game for the crystal, to hoist it up & show the world that you are the best, end of discussion, & I like LSU's chances. I think this would be the best scenario for LSU anyway, b/c if we were to play Okie or anyone besides bama & won, all they would be saying is that "bama/we should've had another shot at LSU, they/we got robbed, they/we would've beat them this time", etc. Give them another shot to make it a legit NC, & let's see what happens. This time we wont have to change our game plan in mid game b/c our QB craps himself. JJ will go in with a ton of confidence & over a month for him & the O coaches to work on things & fine tune the game plan. He threw the ball very well yesterday, for the most part. Looked like he did against A&M. We got this.

I hear your point and it is a good one, but the rejoinder to the Alabama cry would be simple: "we already beat you". End of story. It wouldn't matter what anyone else said from there.

True, but we get to sit back & watch our team win the SEC & know that we're playing in the NC. Gump's have to hope
