ESPN already pushing Alabama vs. LSU for NC Game

ESPN is already at it again! I saw yesterday during the football show that they are already saying this years National Championship game could be Alabama vs. LSU again. They say until someone else steps up that these two teams will be in it again. ESPN is really stuck on the SEC. That is what happen last year they started pushing the matchup from the start and we all see what happen the team that should have been in it (Oklahoma St) got left out. The said during the show that USC (the real USC) and Oregon will have to play twice during the season (once during the regular season and once in the Conf. Championship) and they would wind up beating themselves out of the NC game. If that is the case then why should not the loser of the Ala vs. LSU game be out of the hunt? Even what 5 teams from the SEC is ranked in the top ten in pre-season? I think this all shows that ESPN is putting thier power to good use again in 2012.

I think Alabama will lose at least 2 regular season games this year. They lost ALOT on defense, and trent richardson.
They probably lose 2 of 3 to LSU, Arky, and Auburn.

With the new NC playoff coming, they're running out of time

I'd say there's a high probability it will end up LSU/Bama again. Watching these two team play each other 4 times in two years will create a ratings plunge that will take perception of the SEC and ESPN to new lows. It's a sham.

I think if Clemson beats Auburn and FSU then the Tigers should be right in the thick of things for the NC game. South Carolina will be out the first week when Vandy upsets them so we dont have to worry about the chickens being mention. If Clemson beats Auburn, NC State beats Tenn., FSU beats Fla and Clemson beats the Chickens then the ACC should gain alot of national respect. But for the ACC to gain respect then teams must beat the SEC teams they play.

We certainly have a good chance if we actually show up to EVERY game.

As sick as I am about ESPN/SEC touting-the fact is, until somebody mans up and dethrones the SEC, they enjoy all the hype.

UGA and Scar have no business being in the top 10
Aug 16, 2012, 12:13 PM

Wisconsin, Mich St, WVU, and Clemson (ahead of UGA at least) should be in ahead of them. You can make an arguement for Arky not being in there also

Lsu and bama are the top 2 teams in the country at the end of the year then they should play for the NC. Quit talking about espn bias, until someone else ateps up, this is how it ia going to be.
