re: The way the voters should view the Alabama rematch situation

The thing that worries me is going to be the corruption that's going to occur in the votes. Bama homer's/people wanting a rematch will push back OSU, while those against a rematch will do the opposite.

You do understand that the human voters are either (1) coaches or (2) Harris Poll voters.

The two fan bases that most want to keep Bama out of the SEC game is (1) Auburn, (2) LSU, (3)+ Other contenders. The Harris has no voters with Bama connections. They have 4 voters from Auburn, 1 from LSU. I didn't check for connections to non-SEC contenders but needless to say, if there is any monkey business, it will go against Bama, not for it. Clearly, this entire rant is about LSU fans not wanting to play Bama even though they are the clearly the 2nd best team in the nation. If there was a playoff scenario, Bama and LSU could still face each other, and probably would end up playing again because they are the top 2 teams in the nation. The BCS is a 1 game playoff with the intention of picking the teams most likely to end up in a final. Btw - all voters come directly or indirectly from humans. The computers merely reflect the programers' opinions. And they are frequently wrong because they do not take into account injuries, etc. The computers had Bama beating LSU earlier this year.
