Subjectively. Because a national championship should decide that objectively.

the system does not insure LSU it's easiest avenue to win it just the opportunity to win it against the best opponent.


I'm not seeking an easy route. Just what I perceive as a more fair route. I think the majority of the country would agree. They did in 2006. They should now also. It would only be fair for another 1 loss team to get the shot at proving something Alabama already tried and could not.

There is not exception for rematches or non-conference champs. We can lobby for that and maybe get it changed one day as they've tweaked this system ad-nauseum maybe all the ESPN pukes who don't want rematches every again (if it comes to that) can get it done.

But until then it's the system we signed up.


I totally understand this. And it sucks. Which is basically what I was saying when I conceded that I was wrong about the ultimate goal of the BCS.

quote:

Just like when Tennessee beat us in 2001 it was a regular season game and when we beat them it was the SEC Championship game...that cost them a shot at the national title game.


I see what you mean. But I don't think the object of the SEC title game is to decide who is the national champion of college football (albeit I would say its ultimate goal would be to decide who was best in the SEC and that was obviously not done)
