What if question.

What if Auburn losesto Alabamaand LSU wins out. Could LSU jump Boise and TCU and move into second in the BCS. If so could LSU not play in the SEC championship game but play in the BCS National Championship?

Strength of schedule would make this possible. However, media would freak, but I think it would be fair.

It's basically the same scenario as 2007. UGA and UT tied for the east championship, but UT went to the SEC championship, LSU beat them, but UGA didn't get into the National title game. I dont think the voters will put a team that didn't win their conference in the title game <div>

The computers might be able to help them jump over TCU or Boise, but not both. If TCU is 2 and LSU is 4, TCU will go. If they are 2 and 3, I would guess LSU but it'd be close.

but it should not be able to. A rule needs to change that claims only a team that wins its own conference can play for the NC.

A rule needs to change that claims only a team that wins its own conference can play for the NC.

I thought that rule already existed for conferences that had conference championship games. That's why all of thetalkon this board earlier about the possibility of a combination of Auburn/Bama/LSUmatchup in the BCS championship game was all BS.

What would make this sweet if Oregon, TCU, or Boise picked up a loss along the way. Just can't see Boise losing with there schedule. Same for TCU. Oregon possibly.
