Since you chose to reply to me with this - Bama is an equal opportunity "fricker" - as is Notre Dame, USCw and a couple of other teams who will get this preferential treatment.

I didn't say we should go - we lost 3 football games. We had a better resume in 2007 than teams we went ahead of - and I'm sorry for that. We did get the "SEC" points, but WE WERE THE frickING SEC CHAMPS THAT YEAR. There is no good reason for Bama to have been in the game on 1/9/2012 - that should have been Okie State - and if they beat us - they deserved to be the BCS champs.

You know what would have happened if FSU had lost to Duke? Duke wouldn't have gone to the big game, neither would Michigan State, Bayor OR Stanford - it would have been a rematch of the Iron Bowl and there's no good reason for it.

Again - if you go undefeated and lose in your conference championship game - we can at least look at your resume. But a 1-loss, non-division leader, non-SEC champ has no business being in the big game.

No business at all. It will be worse with a "committee" picking the 4 teams, too - much, much worse. 8 may make it better, but the human polls that always start Bama at #1 will make keeping them out in years similar to 2011 and 2013 very tough.

The top 8 teams should play each other.
To let conference champs only play would mean a weaker field in order to preserve political correctness.

I say let the top 8 play regardless of what conference they are in.
