Could LSU lose to Alabama in the National Championship and still be #1?

You still have zero idea what my point is.

Yes, I still have zero idea what your point is. None of the things that you mention have any connection between them. I don't even know if you are arguing against a playoff, or against the practicality of a playoff. You appear to be arguing that a playoff system wouldn't be any more meaningful/conclusive than the current Bowl Championship Series setup...but every time we start discussing that specific topic, you go off on another blithering tangent, stating "the letters B, C, and S will not be eliminated from the English alphabet...even with a playoff".

1) Im not arguing against a playoff.

2) My point is the BCS championship game should be treated like a championship game. The winner should be the champion. We shouldnt have a split title, is my point.

If Bama wins, they should be champions, LSU shouldnt be co-champs.

1) Good

2) It is the championship game. But you can't control what those crazy AP pollsters do. I thought I told you that 10 times now. If it were the championship game, then why isn't it sanctioned by the NCAA?

I agree that the NCAA needs to have a clear cut champion. The problem right now is that you have a team that is #2 in most of the computer rankings, but #3 in the BCS that will not get a chance at playing for a championship. If the NCAA wants to have "clear cut" champions, then you need to start with "clear cut" rankings.

I agree with that completely, im the biggest proponent of a playoff. I just dont think the loser of the championship game should get a split of the title.

I never disagreed with you, but part of my point is that the AP voters should vote for the winner/champion, like they do in CBB which was your example.

Agreed. If ANYONE gets a share of the title, it should be Oklahoma State sharing with Alabama. If you lose in the BCS, you shouldn't be eligible for a championship, but I think (and hope) that people have that common sense.

What was the other part of your point?

lol that was mostly it. AP shouldnt vote for the loser of the championship game.

Like youk said, if anyone should get a split its Okie State.

No one ever said they should...or have before.

I think LSU should be #1 irregardless of what happens Monday night

Honestly, no matter the outcome of the game, LSU will be my number one.

FT = FAIL (once again)

Do they vote in the AP Poll?

Are you STILL not understanding the context of this discussion?

You said "no one ever said they should" vote for LSU as #1...when many in this thread have said it.

Gonna have to start calling you FailTimer

You're still doing it wrong and not understanding the context.
