UF- They will the the 1st 3 times BCS champs.

Alabama- Nick Saban, the no interception and the Gumps...

Texas- a third school with a second BCS title. Plus they will say that the SEC is the SECond best conf. in CFA.

I hope some how another school will win it: Either Cincy, Boise or TCU will be fine with me.

LSU lost to both UF and Bama with the help of the zebras. They don't deserve it.

If it's Florida-Texas...I'll be wearing my Gator Blue, no question. I frickin hate Texas (I'm from Texas and my brother and sister go to school there).

If it's Texas-Bama, I'm going to kill myself. I hate them both.

We root for the officials to influence the outcome of this game as well, the conspiracy to be uncovered, Slive to get fired, and the NCAA to clean house on the rest of the SEC.

Oh and for wins to be taken away from both Bama and Florida.

Damn, I've been so got up in the BS that went on in Saturday's game I totally forgot about the BS no-call on Riley Cooper yanking on our DB's jersey and therefore gaining an extra step for the game-winning TD!!!

This year won't be difficult - I always pull for Texas if it isn't LSU.

BUT - I would ordinarily support the SEC in any game that didn't involve one of my favorites.

No more.

SEC doesn't have my alliegence any more.

It's a simple fact of life that sometimes you have no good choices--only better and worse ones. Long story short, I'd prefer that Bama, Florida, and Texas lose the rest of their games and two crappy teams make it in. Otherwise, Texas vs. a crappy team is also acceptable. Since that scenario is probably not going to come to fruition, I'm going to have to pull for the SEC team in the game--even Bama. My decision making process went as follows.

1. I don't have any real beef with Florida other than the Tebow obsession, but I don't want them to become the first 3x BCS NCs (that honor should be ours). If they win, it will cement them as "the" SEC powerhouse in the minds of the media--who are always looking to annoint someone or something as the next second coming. Unfortunately, most of us in this country seem just as eager to follow suit. All things considered, however, all we have to do is beat Florida a couple of times in the next few years to negate that.

A Florida win is my first choice among the three likely matchups.

2. I can't stand Bama on a corporate level (no beef with specific fans, per se), can't stand Saban, and don't want to hear them running their mouths about being "back" (though they do that already). I also don't want hear LSU "fans" blathering on about what a genius Saban is, or the media declaring "two powerhouses" in the SEC--also something that they already do. On a practical level, I don't want to give Saban a huge recruiting advantage over us, but I don't think that would actually happen unless they did reclaim some sort of dominance for 5+ years straight. We still have a great base in Tex and La. So, worst case scenario, we have to put up with Bama fans running off at the mouth. Again, we can fix this ourselves with three wins in the next five years. Entirely possible.
Bama win is second choice.

3. If Texas wins, it's no threat to recruiting or our prestige vis a vis a traditional rival, but it will only stoke the flames of this year's topic du jour--the SEC is highly overrated. Even though we're 5-0 in NCG and 12-5 in BCS bowls (thanks Bama, for losing both of yours), people still have a "want" to brand the conference as overrated. If Texas beats two of our best teams, it only cheapens their wins over us, and our position. Read the blogs on espn. They all give LSU no respect for doing reasonably well in an "overrated" conference. F*** that.

As an SEC team, we can settle our grievances against the Gumps and Florida minus Tebow within the family. If Texas wins, it hurts the whole conference.

Whos says we have to root for anyone other than LSU? Depending on who is playing in the game, I may not even watch it.
