Mich St. and Stanford over Bama lol.

For some reason I remember a team that didn't win their conference shutting a team out in the BCSCG almost like winning your conference isn't really that telling.


Strength of Schedule is the most important factor, then you can look at conference champions.

Bama's strength of schedule this year wasn't exactly tough. They lost their one really big game.

Michigan St may have had the easier schedule overall but at least they had a big win. Bama didn't.

I love how the argument is specifically tailored to favor Alabama over, say, Ohio State that went undefeated until their championship game or Michigan State that won theirs.

Hat tip to you.

You people arguing that if you don't win your conference and keeping Bama out are fricking retarded. They're clearly a top 4 team.

So the SEC will never have two of the top four teams in the country? Or any other conference for that matter?

Child please

Y'all are just biased against Bama. If it was LSU, you'd have them in.

sorry, you had your chance. you shouldn't get rewarded for going 1-1 against auburn, and auburn gets punished for doing the same. and yes - if LSU had lost in 2011 to Alabama in the regular season i would not have lobbied for them to play for the title at 11-1. I didn't do that in 2007 - I openly said if they don't get in the NC then that's their own fault for not going undefeated. If you don't win your conference you shouldn't play for the NC - no matter who you are. I felt this way in 2001 (Nebraska) and 2003 (Oklahoma). It's not because it's Alabama.
