People sit here and try to compare this supposed dynasty to previous ones. This is something to just consider.
Without the BCS format in 2009 Texas would have likely played in the Fiesta while Bama would have played in the Sugar. If both would have won their bowl games which would have been likely we would have probably has a split national championship.
Without the BCS format last season Bama wouldn't have even made it to the Sugar Bowl. Undefeated LSU would have likely gone and would have won the Sugar Bowl which means they would have been undefeated National Champions.
This season Notre Dame would have likely gone to the Orange Bowl while Bama would have been in the Sugar. Notre Dame would have probably won the Orange which would have made them the undefeated National Champions regardless of what Bama would have done in the Sugar.
Just something to consider.

One can play what if all day but it is what it is. 3 out of 4. RTR.

Why are you so confident about Notre Dame beating Florida State in the Orange Bowl? I think that's far from a given.

Saban benefits from the BCS format
What Saban has done is more impressive than what the Bear accomplished. Two things Saban has to deal with now the Bryant didn’t are:
• Scholarship limits. Back in the days of the Bear a team basically had an unlimited number of scholarships. Teams like Alabama would sign good players just so they wouldn’t go to another team and develop.
• Players leaving early for the NFL. Bear didn’t have to deal with that.
Give Saban credit where credit is due in that at Alabama, he is the very best coach out there. However, the only drawback for Bama Fans is who replaces him when he retires (which I think it will be 5 years or less)?
Saban has set the bar to unrealistic heights and Bama Fans will not be very patient of the next 3-4 coaches.

Which proves that the BCS is better than leaving it up to the just polls, even with its flaws.

BS. Bear would've won more in this format. Probably would've gotten to play Texas and Earl Campbell instead of a #5 Notre Dame.
Something else. Under BCS format, Lou wouldn't have his title. He would've had to replay Miami and they would've kicked his arse in the rematch. That was not a team you wanted angry and motivated to beat you.

Saban is the best college coach in my lifetime. (and i'm old enough to have watched the Bear)...Yes, Alabama had all the ingredients (tradition, fans, $$) to build a great program when Nick arrived, but Shula left the program in pretty bad shape.
Also, FSU, Miami, OU, SCal, UTx, UTn, etc.) all have the same ingredients as Bama but can't produce the same results. And yes, LSU should be included too, but Saban already proved that LSU is a HC away from the BCS Championship. Just imagine what he would have done if he stayed in Baton Rouge.

I'm sure everyone will consider it, or not.

Is Nick Saban the only coach being allowed to benefit from this BCS system of which you speak?

Your daddy taught you how to be a pussy Frankie.

That would NOT have been a split title. Most people in the media believed Alabama to be the better of the two teams. If both teams would have won their bowl games, Alabama would have been voted #1 in both polls.

Anyone wanna bet that the ts is an LSU fan?

The system is what it is and they won it via the current system.

No playoff, no champion.

It is apparant that N Dame did not belong in this game.

Come on man. The same thing that you ay Saban benefits from is the same system in place for every team. So the fact remains he has his teams prepared and in position to take advantage of whatever system is in place. Look there is no reason to find flaws about what Saban is accomplishing. The fact is the man is one of the all time great coaches. Just accept it and move on.
