Just jump forward and start talking smack for next year and remember I let my haterz be my motivatorz!
Don't forget Arkansas and Georgia too...if you want to talk turkey! Seriously, I think your full of  and by the way LSU may have won the game but Alabama beat themselves...I don't think that will happen again. LSU didn't even score a single touchdown...nor did Alabama but their one MAJOR flaw is the kicker who shanks just about every other kick.

Uh, did you read any of my post?

Both teams being from the same division of the same conference makes all the difference
You never heard OU or Texas whining that they should get to have a NC Game rematch when both teams were powerhouses in the same year. We've always agreed that whoever won the Red River Shootout had the clear path to the NC game (assuming they didn't screw it up and lose to someone). The difference, though, is that the Big XII has always had more than two good teams in the same division
Alabama has all the stats that say they have the best defense in the country, but they still lost to LSU. They had their chance to prove they belonged in NC Game contention, and they lost in what many considered the most boring game ever. That means Alabama will not be playing in their conference championship. I think it's absurd that you could have a team playing for the National Championship that didn't even play in their conference championship game.
Just for the record, I kind of hope Georgia beats LSU, but I'm not holding my breath on that one.

You know your kickers are struggling, don't line up for 6 FG's! Take some chances offensively. I never saw a more boring game in my life. I sincerely hope OkSt takes care of OU and jumps Bama in the final poll. 2 teams from the same conference playing in the NCG is absurd. What if Bama does beat LSU? So Bama is 12-1 and LSU is 13-1 and they beat each other but LSU had a tougher schedule. Would they share it? Bama had their shot against LSU and choked, time for someone else to get a chance.

Thank you. And I can't believe I'm agreeing with you on something
