Let's Revisit the BCS - Could I Be Wrong

Ok let me be clear: I AM UNEQUIVOCALLY AN S.E.C MAN. With that said, let me ask the question which is being asked in NCAA/BCS circles around the country: Does Alabama deserve another shot at LSU in the BCS Championship game? Someone made a very good point the other day when they said that Bama had their shot at LSU, AT HOME, and lost. Their kicker nutted up and the man himself, Nick Saban, and his staff was out coached by Les Miles and his staff. They never adjusted to the option and did not prepare their offense with enough versatility to combat the LSU defense. Let's take it a step further and say that Bama did not even make their own conference championship. With that said, how does a team who had the No.1 team in their own house deserve another shot? Why not give another team a shot such as Oklahoma State or Va. Tech? These two teams who are playing in their conference championship and also have one loss.

In my twisted mind I would love to see one of these teams, or even Stanford, in the BCS title game. The reason is that I want to see them get the crap beat out of them by a real team.

There are a lot of SEC haters who do not want to see an all SEC BCS title game. So in a way, a very small way, I would like to see another team get in and get a beating just like other title games that the SEC have dominated over the past 5 years. How would Andrew Luck like to see his receivers blanketed and those big, brutal, fast brothers from LSU bearing down on him. All that pass happy stuff only works in other conferences but not in brother land. Even Arkansas had issues spreading out the LSU defense and throwing. You are ultimately leaving your QB with less blockers to protect their backs. Not a good idea against LSU or Bama for that matter.

Now lets look at reality: The two best teams in the country reside in the SEC West. That's why they should play for the national championship. In addition, who wants to see LSU win by 40 in a championship game vs Oklahoma State? Now that's more crazy than two SEC playing for the title.

The BCS finally have it right - All hail the SEC baby.

Peace
