According to the final polls it's much better...and the polls are what we go by...right?





You can't lose to Iowa St. and have a better resume.

Bama is the better team, the voters thought the two best teams should play.

Bama > Okie St



You still butthurt?


People thought Bama > OKie State when OSU was undefeated.


Yet, if OSU finished the season undefeated, they would be in New Orleans playing for the national title. And no one would even think twice about Alabama being left out, despite that most would still view Bama as the better team.

In such a scenario, the two "best" teams wouldn't be playing for the title, but the two most deserving. Yet, ESPN talking heads would be telling you the system "got it right". And the public would be concordant in their agreement, because they like to have their beliefs spoon fed to them.

What a novel concept! Wish some of our fans could wrap their mind around it, some 2 weeks later

Hey it was freaking coach on ESPN running his mouth talking about it.

We won the SEC and went undefeated! Which until this year has always meant we don't play another SEC team during bowl season...

this has never happened in history of CFB! - A rematch for a National Title with in conference let alone divisions rivals.

Sorry for my butt hurt.. But you guys are darn lucky to be in this rematch and any Bama fan saying otherwise is just being an arrogant entitled fan....

Bama has 3 less FBS victories than does LSU...How did you get a rematch? You certainly didn't earn it by beating Georgia southern!

Bama is #2 in BCS period. End of discussion. You can cry all you want about not wanting to play us. But it doesn't matter. We're coming down there to kick your whinny arse. Then you can cry about being 1-1 with the BCSNC and we'll stick the crystal ball in our trophy case.

They lost in double overtime on the eve of an Airplane Crash...OSU crushed everyone else all year long

They are conferenc champs, period!

OSU beat 5 ranked teams, Alabama has beaten 2!

Alabama lost at home for goodness sakes...At least OSU was on the road playing in no so great weather

I get it. You want to change the rules last minute because you don't want to play us. I wouldn't want to play us again either.

With 5 weeks left in the season ESPN started the rematch talk...which is why Alabama only dropped 1 spot in the polls

That never happens


Bama is Bama and that's why there is a rematch. I agree with all your points Apex but am not as upset because the 2nd time around, LSU is going to whip that Bama arse..We are a better football team than on Nov 5 and I am not convinced Bama is any better. LSu also has many things on their side going into Jan 9:
Superdome
Turf = Faster
Mental Game (Gauntlet schedule)
Sr QB vs Opie and he's a Sophomore
More playmakers
Special Teams

LSU wins by >10

Talk all you want....

I will be crushed if we lose...and if we win, it will pretty sweet. I'd rather play OSU...they are more deserving and I could handle losing to them a lot better than lsoing to Alabama who didn't play their way in...they just sat there at #3 while other teams were on the road being tested

Alabama was at home "taking care of business" against Georgia Southern... that's a fact..

I am assuming bama1959 is your screen name because your date of birth was in 1959. If so, you aren't very mature for someone born then.

You can pretty much bet that there will be a rule change after this season.

The players want to. CLM voted bama above Ok. St. so it seems clear that he wants to. That's all I'm really concerned about.

What exactly do you feel your team proved on Nov. 5?
