I don't know that many LSU fans because I live in NC, but I have family that went to LSU

No LSU fans I know really wanted to play Alabama a second time.

I have several freinds at church that love CFB...about 70% said it was unfair for LSU to play Alabama again.

the other 30% said Alabama was 2nd best, so the "BCS worked"

I think those 30% just fell into the ESPN talking points...

It's not a National Championship if it's an SEC W Division rematch...

I disagree with Kirk H on this one...

I did - but of course, I thought we were going to win. I should have known better. Bama always wins.

let me ask you a serious question:

Why do you think these LSU fans wanted to play Alabama again after beating Alabama already and having to play an additional game than the Tide?

Second question is this: Why did you inject money into this equation as a reason why some LSU fans would or would not want to play Alabama again...I fail to understand your reasoning other than just wanting to be boastful.

Which makes no sense to me...I don't' care if you donated a million dollars to LSU, it has no significance in wanting to give (play) Alabama a second attempt to beat LSU

Seriously..we had little to prove (notice I didnt say "win") by playing Bama again and absolutely everything to lose...if you left if up to LSU fans to pick who to play 90% would have picked OSU. Winning the Game of the Century was enough.....until it wasn't.

We got screwed out of a Crystal Trophy and I give thanks we won the SEC because winning the SEC is harder than the NC nowadays.....
