The Blue Board

Its funny that you shitheads can talk all day about how Auburn sucks, but when we offer a fair analysis of the game, we are wearing O&B pajamas and are biased.

Sorry, you are dead wrong.

I'm no Auburn supporter but no way in hell do I want to see a rematch of that boring ass game. Spare me the " you don't get it" analogy. There are two teams who can pass the ball and who put up winning worthy points on LSU. They had no D. LSU has 2 teams in their potential future who have both a higher rated offense than Bama and a higher rated D than Oregon and West Va.

LSU would beat Oklahoma St by 21 or 28. You have to have a defense and running game to beat them. OSU has neither. Stanford, we'll see. I don't watch enough of them to know.

Were you the one that rolled Toomer's Corner last night?

I don't think we necessarily deserve a rematch, but if things play out that put us in that position, I don't think there's another team that can claim they deserve to be in that particular game any more than we can.

I'm not one who thinks we deserve a rematch (especially if there are other unbeatens out there) but to the OP's "fairness" argument......... would it still be "unfair" to LSU if we were to tie up with them again if it were a "playoff" scenario? Afterall, they would still have to beat us twice to win the title with UA only having to win once. Just curious as to your thoughts on this.

I concur. Boise beat us way worse than the score indicated. Of course we are a much different team now, and I'm not sure the results would be similar, but that does not matter they got a blow out win and deservedly so. I think that they deserve their shot to either prove themselves or shut up vs. LSU if LSU wins out and Stanford and Oklahoma St. lose 1.

Although I believe Alabama may be the best or 2nd best team in the country, that does not matter. They had their shot at home and blew it. The BCSNCG has never been about getting the two best teams to play against each other, don't kid yourself by that logic. I believe Alabama was hands down better than Auburn last year, but they stunk it up at home and let Auburn come back. Auburn deserved the NC then, not Bama. It's not about whose best, its about who wins, and who gets the media's nod.

Again, the only large group of people that are whining about the fairness of a re-match is Auburn fans. I just find it funny that it bothers them that much, you should hear them on the radio today, its hilarious. Bottom line, there is a lot of football to left to be played and all this whining may be for no reason at all. Fact is LSU and Alabama are obviously in a league to themself this year and some rivals are having a hard time accepting it. Let the chips fall where they may at the end of the season.

Don't you think that the majority of the Bama Nation would be saying the same thing if the shoe was on the other foot? Not necessarily you, but the fan base in general. I think that a big part of both fan bases is that they not only want to beat each other, but want the other team to not do well. Just my [two cents]

I do agree that the two teams seem to be a step above the competition this year, which makes it a much more intriguing scenario. But as you say, much more FB to be played. It could look completely different on Dec. 6.

When you get a chance, please post the research you did to arrive at "the only large group of people that are whining about the fairness of a re-match is Auburn fans". I'm kinda feeling like you just made that up.

PS. I didn't want to see an Ohio State vs Michigan rematch in 2006 either. Unless Alabama ends up as the only 1-loss team in the country, then I just don't want to see a team who had a shot at #1 at home get another shot for the title when other teams are "in line" for their shot. Whether it be OU or Oklahoma St or Stanford or whoever. If Alabama ends up the only 1-loss team, then sure, give them another shot. But if not, I want to see someone else get their chance.

First, I'll say I don't want to see a rematch.

When I first read the OP, it made sense. However, I think the illogical part is saying that LSU "had" to beat Alabama twice. Let's speculate and say that LSU lost...wouldn't they be in the same position Alabama is in? So I don't think that's true...LSU could have lost and then won again and been MNC's, just like Alabama might have the chance to.

I really want to agree...but wouldn't the same logic apply to conference championships? Obviously Bama and LSU won't meet there, but theoretically speaking, if we were talking about Bama and Florida as the two best schools and they ended up meeting in the SEC championship as well...should they just say, well we can't have a rematch because that's not fair to the previous winner?

Like I said, I don't want to see a rematch. I'm just not quite sold on the logic of it yet.

At this point I'll have to pretend it really is a "12 game playoff" or whatever crap the BCS spews to rationalize their existence. LSU moves on, Bama doesn't.

A deafening blow to Bamaradar.

Bama doesn't deserve a "rematch." They got spanked in their own house.
