Yes, they're the SEC champs, but it wasn't won by a sound beating. Just 21 - 14 over Tennessee. Not very impressive.
Besides, Michigan was denied the #2 slot last year because they had their one shot at #1 against Ohio State. LSU is being granted a third stinking shot at #1. I already knew this, but GAWD THE BCS SUCKS!
Lastly, no written rule that says you must be the Conference Champs. Now, I hate LSU more than ever. (But I can't cheer for Ohio State. Never.)

You're wrong...Michigan didn't get to the final game last year because NO ONE wanted to see them lose to Ohio State yet again. A lot more goes into the choice than just who is ranked #1 and #2 by the computer. Obviously the computer was wrong since #1 got whipped by UF! LSU gets its third chance because no one else did better. The SEC teams that LSU lost to played their best games of the year against us. Even if Arkansas was unranked, McFadden (who deserved the Heisman) was back and played an awesome game. They would have been better this year if he'd stayed off the injured list. SEC is by far the strongest conference. Even with two losses, we're going to kill Ohio State and prove that point. I think the top 5 SEC teams could beat Ohio State, so Go LSU, Go Tennessee, Go Georgia! Don't hate LSU...we've worked hard to get here. UGA has beaten us too many times to count, but it's our turn now! You may be a better team...hell, we were a better team than UF last year, but you didn't see us running around crying like a bunch of babies! Be happy that the SEC is getting some recognition.
