I find it laughable that y'all are bringing up games from several years or even decades ago. Nick Saban hasn't peaked as a coach. He's much better now than he was say 5 years ago.
Y'all can continue to talk about 2011's legitimacy but don't question 2012. A loss is a loss, whether it's early or late. At least Alabama doesn't lose to bad teams nowadays, can LSU say the same? Your team has a great history, even in recent times, of playing unranked teams closely and even losing to them. The BCS selected the wrong pair of teams in 2003 and 2012 for the national championship, so that's a tie. If you want to mention playing a beatable Florida squad that struggled to beat non-AQ teams and Missouri, then that's pathetic. 2003 LSU and 2012 Alabama both lost home games. The difference is that LSU lost by 12 points against an average at best Florida squad while Alabama lost to a team that finished the regular season ranked #5.
2003 Florida and 2012 Michigan both finished the regular season ranked #24. Auburn was ranked when you beat them but lost 2 more games and finished the season unranked. 2003 Georgia finished the season ranked 7th in the AP while 2012 Georgia finished the season ranked 6th. 2003 Ole Miss finished the season ranked 13 while 2012 LSU finished ranked 14. Last but not least, there's the national championship games. LSU should have played U.S.C. and Alabama should have played someone other than Notre Dame.
