They are all wrong.

The BSC National Championship game is set: LSU vs. Bama in the Tuscalusa Bowl.

Unless this is a new rule put into place for this year, this isn't true at all.

Not where i would make my stance unless the defensive backs are out.
I don't think there is much of a chance of LSU ending up in the Fiesta. Bama will be ranked number one if LSU loses to them, then the Sugar will get first at large pick, and I would bet they would pick LSU, because it maintains the SEC spot in the Sugar, and because it is in Louisiana.

If LSU is in a BCS game, it will be the NCG or Sugar. The ONLY way it isn't one of those two, assuming LSU is in a BCS game, is if they don't win the SEC West AND the SEC champ is NOT in the NCG.

Not entirely true. If bama wins the SECCG and then goes to the MNC, the sugar bowl is not obligated to replace them with an SEC team. They could take anyone they want.

However whoever is ranked number one in the MNC leaves their default BCS game with first pick of team they want to replace them, which in this case is bama so the sugar bowl would get first pick. I can't imagine them not taking us

I guess people are that desperate to see the BCS busted...and for Boise to get as hyped up as they want. Sorry guys, but an actually decent team like LSU would down your hopes of that.

Well I stand corrected then.
I assumed the loser of the SEC championship automaticly went to the Sugar.
Sorry for the confusion

Oh ... here goes the BCS stuff again.

Only 2 teams from a conference can be in the BCS. They're talking about potentially changing that, but currently it's only 2.

13-0 Bama goes to NCG
11-2 USCe goes to Cap One
11-1 LSU goes to Sugar

If the Sugar picks USCe, then LSU goes to Cap One.

You may be thinking of the Capital One Bowl. They are required to take the SEC Champ Game loser under certain circumstances.

Um, the whole point is that LSU can't play Boise St in the Fiesta Bowl. It'll never happen.


It's possible:
1) LSU loses to Bama, but wins out ... 11-1
2) Bama loses an SEC game and either wins the SECCG, but doesn't make the NCG OR loses the SECCG. Either way, the SEC champ goes to the Sugar. Then, LSU is available for an at-large BCS bid to another BCS bowl.

On the subject of Bama vs. LSU.
If in an alternate universe there was to someway that LSU vs. Bama in BCS national championship. Would that mean that the SEC gets the same payout as any other year? Or is the payout larger for the NC?

Also it would hurt the SEC our bowl rankings automatic 1 loss. only way possible for this to happen is for everyone else to start losing, and the bama to win in the regular season with a last second field goal.

I do think that out of LSU, Bama, Oklahoma, and OK state. that three of the 4 finish with 1 loss. I just don't know who those three are. I think we will end up with at most 3 teams with an undefeated record. See Auburn, Texas, and USC.

only two teams can go from conference, and I would suspect that the BCS picks the team with the head to head victory.
