The SEC has won the BCS Championship 7 years in a row. Until some other conference can demonstrate some parity with the SEC, which none has recently, the SEC should have the right to defend its supremacy with a one-loss team. Oregon and Notre Dame talked some hype, but they melted when they came out to play the big boys. I give FL State some respect, but not Ohio State as long as they hide behind their schedule in a 2nd class conference, undefeated or not. The Big 10 needs to prove they are worthy again. They used to be, but they haven’t been in quite a while. I look forward to the day the Big 10 can redeem themselves. It is much more fun to “hate” (in a competitive sense) them that way . . . :)
the SEC doesn’t play in the game a team does. By that argument last years winner should always get to play in the title game.
That is just stupid.
I have been following all this chatter about the SEC and Ohio State, but everybody seems to be ignoring the elephant in the room. Namely Florida State. I am a big Bama fan, but having watched Bama and Florida State play throughout the year, I was convinced that FSU would easily defeat Bama had they been matched in the Championship game. I still think Bama is better than Auburn (despite the loss), Ohio State and Missouri, but FSU would destroy any one of them.
Easy solution: we don’t need a BCS game, the SEC Championship game should determine the National Champion. That way we can turn our attention to basketball sooner.

Then play a better none conference schedule, and traveling out past the Mississippi River for a change. Look at what happened to Tennessee against Oregon this year.
