re: Nothing wrong with the idea of a split title

The BCS matters and the AP doesn't. I have heard this time and time again from LSU fans when referring to USC. You can spin it however you want, but I think the AP is worthless, and most LSU fans felt that way in 2003.

Of course, LSU will put it in the trophy case if we won it. So. Do you think the players will feel great about it if we lost to Bama in the NC game. frick no. Fap

If LSU loses and "wins" the AP vote it's 100% worthless IMO

AGAIN, it does not matter what we think, LSu will gladly take that trophy win or lose. it appears some here are too dense to even realize that the Ap is NOt part of the BCS anymore and have not been since 2003. They are their own separate entity and can distribute their trophy how they see fit.

some would, some wouldn't. i would agree with those that put the BCSNCG as the deciding factor.

The AP was part of the BCS system in 2003. They didn't like the outcome, so they broke their agreement with the system they had previously agreed to be a part of and they crowned their own champion.
It was a completely illegitimate title in 2003.
Now, the AP is NOT a part of the BCS system. They have their own poll and their own title. If the want to crown a different champion, they can. It is as legitimate as the AP title in 1992 or 1979 or any other year before the BCS.
The AP title is legit. MUCH more so than in 2003.
Use logic. Don't apply how you FELT in 2003 to NOW.

Well said AlaTiger. It do make a difference.

This is a pitiful and defeatest thread and any fellow LSU fan who would acknowledge an "AP Crown" for LSU, if they lose the BCSNCG, is a hypocrite...especially given the obnoxious way LSU "fan" respnded in 2003. And the AP could then, and can now, vote which ever team they want in at #1...they were not bound by the BCS like the Coaches Poll was. Different in 2003 though, becuase USC was #1 in both polls going into the bowls (had only 1 loss all year in OT at Cal), got screwed out of the BCSNCG by Oklahoma, throtled Michigan in the Rose Bowl, etc. This year, LSU would have lost their last game and finished SEC Champ and #2 in BCS.

You play for the crystal ball, the BCS Nat'l Champ...not for being #1 in a sports media poll. Many schools can claim championships in obscure polls, but they mean squat. The winner of this game is the Nat'l Champ...the loser is #2...period.
