It's already determined...the BCS National Champion is going to come from the SEC for the sixth straight year.
So who are you rooting for? As much as I'd like to see LSU be the only team in college football to go undefeated, I'm hoping that Alabama wins so that the BCS can be restructured. Yes, the #1 and #2 teams in the final BCS poll are meeting tonight, but my question is, who's the real champion if Alabama wins? Yes, they will have won the BCS title game, but each team will then finish the season with only one loss....to each other. Why shouldn't LSU's win AT Alabama, on the first Saturday in November, count as much as tonight's game where the Crimson Tide have had over a month to prepare for the Tigers?
The fact of the matter is that a playoff is needed. In my opinion, eight teams to decide the title. College football (Div I) is the only collegiate sport that does not have a playoff...a win by Alabama will help expedite this change...a win by LSU might not. I have a plan that I'm working on that I'll share soon with all of you SQM devotees...I'm talking to all six of you.
Roll Tide!
