sorry, you had your chance. you shouldn't get rewarded for going 1-1 against auburn, and auburn gets punished for doing the same. and yes - if LSU had lost in 2011 to Alabama in the regular season i would not have lobbied for them to play for the title at 11-1. I didn't do that in 2007 - I openly said if they don't get in the NC then that's their own fault for not going undefeated. If you don't win your conference you shouldn't play for the NC - no matter who you are. I felt this way in 2001 (Nebraska) and 2003 (Oklahoma). It's not because it's Alabama.

Exactly, also if you shite the bed the previous year you shouldn't play in the championship game the next year see 2004 Oklahoma or 2007 Ohio St. The playoffs will eliminate that though.

This is basically why you should spend your time calling in on radio shows while other people in other places far away from you should be deciding these things.
