No, you know that LSU beat Bama in one game. By that logic, we already know Iowa State is better than Oklahoma State, right?

Ok then if bama wins well bama only beat lsu in one game. Now what do you do? By that logic no one is the national champ

LSU beat Bama in Bama? If we don't value that win, what win would you ever value in college football

He's a Notre Dame fan, you can't blame him for not recognizing quality football. It's been two decades since he last saw it.

I wouldn't mind seeing bama and lsu in rematch. Of course I'd rather watch ok st and lsu but I'll enjoy either.

this is my thinking as well. actually thought the first lsu/bame game was pretty compelling - just would be a little awkward for a title game rematch

If we pair these teams up again, you may as well get rid of the BCS. Proponents of the BCS say that every week is a playoff and that these match-ups serve as de facto semi-finals. Well? Bama should have already been eliminated?

Where does OSU's loss to Iowa State fit in, in your opinion, then?

Osu deserves it more over bama. They played a better schedule have better wins. And most Importantly bama had there shot at lsu at home and lost

That's a horrible arguement, even for a douchebag like you.

How is it fair to Alabama that losing to the consensus #1 disqualifies you from being a top 2 team, but losing to an average at best 6-6 team doesn't?

Out of curiosity, what if the tables were turned and Alabama had beaten LSU?

LSU would still have wins over Oregon, Arkansas, and West Virginia. Would you complain if they made the title game over OSU in that situation?

That's different bc lsu has a better resume over osu and lost on the road. Bama lost at home and osu has the better resume

Oklahoma State had a tougher schedule and had a few wins over top 10 teams. The game they lost happened right after a tragedy at their school. I will cut them some slack.

It does get value. It was a regular season win.

There is a reason it is called the Mythical National Championship. Playoffs are the only way to crown true champions.

Oklahoma State had a better SOS and wins against top 10 teams. How do you know Bama is better?

For some reason, I can only find one team that OSU beat in the top 10, and they are ranked 10 (KSU). Bama has a win in the top 10 also (ARK) who's ranked higher. Bama killed Ark, while OSU barely beat KSU.
