I thought it was based on the computers idea. I know voters half one half, but that bigger half goes to an f'n Hewlett Packard somewhere making picks based on schedules and when you lost last.
Aye the BCS.

Dude, every thing you say just reeks of LSU fan.. either that or your just an idiot.. and prob didnt read the post at all...
First of all this is NOTHING like last year.. Michigan got jumped because they lost the last game of their season and florida went on to win the SEC... Geo won the last 7 games of their season and LSU lost a week ago to a .500 team in conference..
You call SC a fraud but say nothing about Kentucky going below .500 in conference.. and Ark having one good player on the whole team.. ok maybe two.. but no defense at all!!..
Like I said.. LSU winning the conf. is a formality.. They lost to shittier teams and got rewarded for that.. If they lost to a good team like Tenn of Georgia they wouldnt have been in the conf. champ game.. If you add up the power rankings of Tennesee and SC against Kentucky and Arkansas.. Tennesee and SC dominates.. not to mention the fact that Geo hasnt lost in 2 months and are playing better than ever.. While LSU Lost a week ago.. squeeked by this week on a late Interception for a TD... and had more lucky wins than anyone in the nation.. Florida,Auburn and even Alabama..
The fact that you look at one game against Tenn 2 months ago and and say that is why they cant be in is a "complete and utter joke".. To me losing to a good team 2 months ago is worse than a crappy team last week..
First of all, I am anything but an LSU fan. Check out collegefootballmadcapper.blogspot.com, which I write for a bunch of my buddies, and you'll be able to see that. Les Miles is borderline retarded, they've been overrated all year, and I'm absolutely sic of ESPN wishcasting them to the #1 spot all year. They are probably my least favorite team in the country. If Georgia does go ahead of them, I'll take a measure of pleasure from it knowing that they got shut out, but I'll still disagree with it.
Second, I can't remember the last time I've been called an idiot, but you've managed to pull the trick twice within the same thread. By the way, even though you disagree with me, I'm not about to call you an idiot. The fundamental difference between the opinions is that you think winning the conference is meaningless, and I think it means quite a lot. How can LSU be the champion of the SEC while Georgia, who did not even win the SEC East because of their play, has the chance to win the National Title? It doesn't make logical sense. Just like Kansas shouldn't be in the MNC game. That's the root of my contention, as well as the fact that Georgia was soundly thrashed in one of their losses while LSU lost their games in triple overtime. In my opinion, you have two teams with similar resumes, but one's the champ of the conference and one isn't. If you think it means something you're on LSU's side, if you think it means nothing, you're on Georgia's side. That's the difference. You, as well as ACC have a different view, and there's nothing idiotic about your view. I think you should see it my way, but hey, that's your opinion.
Last thing: Here's an example of what I wrote previously on LSU, before this week's games:
2. Tennessee +7 1/2 v LSU: Ok, can someone please explain to me why I keep hearing people on the radio say variations of the following: "I realize that LSU has lost two games, but in my opinion, if they had a playoff, they would walk right through it." Must we continue to listen to people continue to say that LSU is he best team in the country? Based on what? The Virginia Tech game? After that game, we assumed that this was what we could expect from LSU. Then the Tulane game happened, where they trailed at halftime. We all figured that was an anomaly. Then the should have lost to Florida. Then they definitely should have lost at home to a decent Auburn team. Then they should really definitely have lost to a .500 Alabama squad. Another anomaly. Then they gav up 465 yards and got outgained by 100 against Ole Miss with their backup QB in there. Fluke. Then they lost at home to a ho hum Arkansas team(lost to Kentucky at home, hammered by Tennessee, etc) when they were playing for the right to go to the National Championship as a 2 TD favorite. So what game was the anomaly? Yeah, the Va Tech game. Conclusion: As much as we all want LSU to be the best team in the country, they just aren't, ok? They're coached by a moron, and they just arent the best team in the country. Deal with it America, and move on. ok.....so now they get Tennessee. They've been carved up by just about everyone in their last 8 games, and you can make a case that this is the best offense they have faced since Florida. Very balanced. LSU does do a couple things well: put pressure on the QB, and get turnovers. However, Erik Ainge does a great job of holding on to the ball, and he's only been sacked 4 times ALL SEASON. LSU is bummed out because their chances to play for the MNC are gone. I think it shapes up for a good opportunity for UT. Their defense is not good, but LSU has not exactly lit it up on offense lately either

If LSU jumps everyone, it's a function of voters looking at the situation, deciphering who they think has the best argument for playing in the MNC game, and then voting as such. It doesn't have anything to do with how impressive they think LSU was yesterday.
I'd disagree that there's some sort of media bias against UGA...do you really believe that?

Lol!!!! That is ridiculous. You of all the posters on this board should know that statement is ludicrous. I'm certain you've watched college football this year. Guess like WV should've beaten Pitt by 30 huh?

Didn't mean to infer there was a media bias against UGA. Just saying that those teams mentioned above would get the benefit of the doubt as they are prone to be the media "darlings". Didn't we just have this debate about Michigan last year and pretty much all of the media was hyping the Wolverines to get a re-match vs. OSU. I just think if you go by the system and where OSU and UGA were ranked before this week......those teams should move up.

I agree OU is better than both. But no 2 loss team should play for the title.
