They really need to just go ahead and make the plus one. It will be refreshing for college football. I'm not saying this just being a Homer and mad because LSU lost last night, bama beat us up and they won the game, OK fine. It doesn't change the fact however that Bama didn't win the conference much less the west and LSU did! LSU earned the right to play an OSU this year by winning out the conference, instead we get stuck playing a conference foe again and get handled... Its hard enough to beat Bama once not counting running the entire table. This seems tainted to the fullest and it makes every other year prior to this year that there was a question of who should play in the big game tainted as well. The media wants what it wants and gets what it wants apparently. The only valid thing to do it add plus one because I've lost interest until they fix this as I'm sure a lot of people feel the same exact way! Will always love the tigers and will always bleed purple and gold but this bullshite Championship System has come to a head and its time for a change...

This is why I almost care more about the SEC championship than the crystal.

Bama's the better team. They won. So the system works.

Doesn't change the fact that OSU could have maybe pulled an upset over Bama in a playoff to play the winner of us and stanford

The charge of the BCS is to pair the two best teams.

They did.

Bama won

They are the champs and best team. Nothing is tainted, nothing is out of place.

System worked just fine. We weren't good enough.

I can't find the link atm, but I'm pretty sure the Executive Director of the BCS is on record somewhere as saying their job is to match-up the two "most deserving" not the two "best"... Those two things are very different imo.

I'm all for a playoff. However, a playoff would not have changed the results of this game. And LSU earned the right to play the best team in the country for all the marbles... they did and lost, don't try to discredit it.

would help if every conference were required to crown their champs the same way. OSU didn't play in an additional conference game, they played as many games as bama.

LSU earned the right to play Bama after winning the SEC championship

Bama didn't even win the west
