I completely disagree with the fact that conference champions should be the only ones to play for the title.

To each his own. IMO, if every game counts then conference championships should really count, and a non-champ conference member should not be allowed to claim a bigger prize than their conference champ.

Every regular season game does matter though. Bama and LSU basically played to a tie in the first game. I don't think anyone in the nation could come away from that game and say that either Bama or LSU was CLEARLY better than the other. Hence a rematch of the two best teams.

It would be different if LSU had won in regulation or if they won like 24-13

Your logic is perfect. In a world where Conferences are competitive with each other.

We could of had a BCS style SEC where #1 v #2 and we play bama for Sec title, lose both the SEC and NC.

Bama doesn't get any blame as far as I'm concerned. Football gods did some freaky stuff to teams all over the country after GoTC. Take a look back at Alabama after that game and see what had to happen to get them the rematch with us. It's one of the most insane runs of luck I've ever seen. It was a perfect storm.

And at the end of the day, I don't think anyone outside LSU/Bama would of beaten LSU or Bama. Both teams were in their own league last year.

I imagine that Tony Larussa and Albert Pujols would disagree. God...what an idiotic statement.

Yeah, every game counts. Including Okie State-Iowa State.
