I just don't see how the winner of the game Saturday would be effectively punished for winning by having to play another game (SEC Championship) against another quality opponent while the loser would just get to win three games to get a rematch. It's one thing if it was a three point LSU win in Baton Rouge, but for Alabama to lose at home and then get a easier road just seem unfair.

Even without the extra game, why should they get a do over so that we have to win 2 out of 2 and they get to split to get the crystal ball.

Agreed . . . but "fair" ain't got nothing to do with it. Look at all the media hype for the two weeks prior to the game Saturday and just imagine what they would do with a month to promote the game. The network and the media will keep pumping the idea and hope some other teams lose to make it happen.
