"As an Alabama fan, I fail to see your logic.

My post was "As an LSU fan... Geaux NCAA!". Pretty simple I was just saying I favor a playoff. The 2011 Rankings had LSU #1 and Alabama #2, I think they would have met in the championship under this new system too.

"Unless you hope another team could have bested Bama thereby not having to face the 2011 NCAA Champions for the BCS National Championship."

I was not in favor of LSU having to beat a team they had already beaten in Alabama for the championship. Not so much for fear of losing, but because it was pretty much a no win propositon for LSU. If LSU had won the rematch, non-LSU/Alabama fans would have said; "so what LSU beat Alabama twice, proves nothing". As it was, LSU was the better team one day, Alabama was the second day... proves nothing.

BTW, Alabama is not the 2011 NCAA Champion... You see there is no NCAA Championship yet. There was a BCS Champion. This new plan will create a NCAA Major College Football Champion for the first time ever.

One more thing, there was a 2012 SEC Championship...what would be LSU's.

"A team that can only get past the 50 yard line (and not score) only once in a game does not deserve the Title."

The team with the most points on the scoreboad wins... see, it's not a game of deserving it is a game of scores.

Roll Tide (2011) War Eagle (2012)

Tide's 2012 BCS Bowl is for the 2011 season. Whats the War Eagle (2012) about?

I am also an Auburn fan, I would like to see Auburn win in 2012 like they did in 2010. Nice to see the Alabama teams alternate.

And I see your point. Would have been nice to have this playoff system for this past year.
