Saban said in 2003 that his team deserved to be in the title game against Oklahoma because those two teams had played conference title games while USC didn't. I guess he's singing a different tune now.

Really, there shouldn't be a title game this year. LSU deserves the title for their body of work this season. If Alabama beats them, there well be rioting in Louisiana and rightfully so. I will never understand why LSU has to win twice for the title but Alabama only has to won once. I don't want to hear that Alabama the best team in the game they lost. This isn't horse racing where you lose the Classic and still get the title. LSU won the game on Alabama's home field.
that's what i'd heard. but a lot of voters boiled it down to the one loss each team had-which is why bama came out ahead in voting but not the computers.
and yeah, nick has been campaigning hard, guess it worked out for him.
