I'm not an Alabama fan at all. I just want to see the four best teams in college football playing for the title. I think you have that here.

I just don’t think you can honesty say that bama is 4th best when its not even the best in its own division!!

Look at my last post about the 2012 BCS national championship game. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who knows college football who didn't agree that Alabama and LSU -- who play in the same division! -- were the two best teams in the country. In that case, a team that didn't win its own division (Alabama) ended up beating the team that did win that very same division (LSU) for the national title!

In another quirk from that matchup, LSU ended up with one more win than Alabama that year (13-1 vs. 12-1) because LSU played in the SEC championship game and won over Georgia.

if I recall LSU didn’t even score in that game? or am I thinking of another game... if they didn’t, I kinda find it hard to believe they were 2nd best team in country that couldn’t even manage a field goal... has there ever been a shutout in Nat Title game?

I would say the last 7 years or so Bama has def been dominate... just not this year.
