Rule of thumb:

If a story is published five minutes before you see it, it's already on this site.

The drum beat gets a little bit louder.

Oakie State leads in almost every measurable.

And the angry letters from Bama fans won't help their cause.

A third place finisher vs a conference champion?

Sleep well my Bama friends.

To tell you the truth; he's spot on.

Most LSU fans don't want Bama again for 1 reason. Oklahaoma State is a much easier opponent and will get shredded by LSU. Every LSU fan on this site knows who the best 2 teams in the country are. The BCS is not about fairness. Bama will be #2 in the BCS cause everybody knows they are the second best team not because of fairness.

In a way you are right but at the same time, its because LSU HAS ALREADY BEATEN THEM. NO ONE other than Bama wants a rematch.

Stanford deserves to go over Alabama because they played Oregon and Oregon is fast.....cool. Boise because they beat Georgia and ONLY lost to TCU......cool.

This.

ETA: And for all of the "If LSU had lost, they would be arguing the same as Bama" talk from Bama players and fans, well guess what, LSU didn't lose. They won. Stop making up hypothetical situations to make you feel better about the loss and to try to justify your desperate cries for a second chance.

Jesus Christ......no. Did you read what he said about Stanford and Boise? The way he tried to make his point made him look like an idiot.

The biggest problem is that Okie State doesn't want to play us, they want to finish off the season with a win and a top 5 ranking. Why go to a game you know you are going to lose, badly?

I'd rather not play Bama or any other of the 11 teams we already beat, what's the point, no upside.

Of course the sight of Little 'Piece of shite' Nicky screaming and coming unglued as we beat his arse twice in one season, is very tempting.

I got that he was saying he wanted anything other than a rematch. I can't say I disagree with him. We beat Bama already. What else do we have to prove by beating them again?

I understand what you're saying. But that isn't how the BCS works. And what his reasonings why some of those teams should be in instead of Alabama were stupid. He could have done a WAY better job.

Actually, the BCS works based on what the computer polls say and what the human polls say. What will you say if OSU beats OU and Bama gets left out? Will you say that Bama was snubbed?

I believe that Alabama is better than OSU so I think they should get in over them. So in a way yes, I think it will be a snubbing. Specially if voters vote OSU 2nd ONLY because they don't want a rematch. If people think OSU is the second best team, then vote them there. If not, don't.
