Bama keeps rising. We keep falling.
So what's to be done about it?
What's your solution to this dire circumstance?

I don't care about BAMA. I care about LSU. The CFA committee is ecstatic about this match-up. LSU wins and we are a pre-season top 5 team next season. This game is all about prepping for 2013. PRIME TIME, ONLY GAME ON.
Will the real Tigers, please stand up! Frick it. Let's enjoy.

We were 10-11 or so.
After the loss to UGA, (We were like 3-4 before).
We were 5 in the final.

This reminds me of the 2005 Peach except playing Miami was much more enticing than Clemson.
This is so 1996.

At the risk of repeating myself what to do about this?

Nope
Yes they were.
See my quote.
It also extends to 4 as long as the 2 team per conference isn't exceeded.
UF was an automatic qualifier despite not winning the conference because of the high ranking.

You're an idiot.
A lot of big teams are getting hosed on their bowls.
NIU being a BCS game is a freaking joke. An 8-5 Wisconsin team in the Rose Bowl is another joke.
Takes away from the prestige of the Rose Bowl if you ask me.

It's embarrassing that we're playing on the night of dec 31st instead of during breakfast on jan 1st and I'm sick of you fricking pumpers claiming otherwise...

He's apparently not that smart. I remember my first time watching college football.

Can't think of a better way to ring in the new year than with the LSU Tigers!

Sorry man...My energy goes toward caring about LSU. I care about the GUMPS when we play them. I'm fine with pulling for a program that is set up to, at minimum, to be in the hunt for Conference Championship every season...Soon we'll have a playoff for the NC and then, the game changes.
