    LSU looked pretty much unbeatable today; I am not sure it matters who plays them.

    Alabama is the best team in the nation...and if they get a rematch...they will prove it.

    **** a kicker.

    Case's stats are just insane.

    And no, I don't mean total numbers, I mean things like efficiency, qb rating, td-int, completion %, etc.

    This is a different team. In 2009, we threw the ball over 700 times. So far this year? Only 428 times... this is a much more complete team, and Case is a much more complete player. If he doesn't get an invite to NY, it'll be a travashamockery.

    If Jordan Jefferson plays like he did today, LSU will get more than just FGs against Alabama.

    McCarron played great against Arkansas.

    I know LSU beat us.

    ...but we were the better team in that game, no doubt.

    I agree, but only the scoreboard matters.

    I'm OK with a rematch. It's only right the two best teams play. IMO, no team has distinguished itself enough to supplant Alabama as the 2nd choice for the championship game. If Oklahoma State or Oregon didn't lay eggs last week, we would have a real debate on our hands. But it's over.

    There's still tons of 7-11s across the country, including in Dallas where the cotton bowl is. Pwn3d

    7-11? I prefer 73-34.

    If Oklahoman St. beats the Sooners pretty badly....we will have a real debate on our hands.

    Coogs would beat LSU 82-17 if they played in the NC game.

    I'm liking the Houston v Michigan match up. I really think they can win it.

    I don't think it will be Michigan. It will be the loser of Mich State and Wisconsin or Alabama if they don't make the NC game.

    With either Mich St. or Wisc I think they have a shot. Both teams have been upset by mediocre teams, Ohio St and Notre Dame.
