Would love to see Boise St. too. but there is no way in hell they will get there. So OSU should be the one team to play LSU. Bama sat on thier asses today and get an extra week to prepare for LSU, so that's not a fair deal for LSU after being banged up today.
I think they should want Oklahoma State #2. They already beat Alabama. They can say they beat Alabama in Tuscaloosa. They have bragging rights there. They beat West Virginia (who should be Big East Champ. WVU beat Cincinnati). They beat Oregon, who won the Pac 12 Championship.
Wouldn't they want to face another conference champion so they can brag that they beat another conference champion? What could Alabama say, "We could beat LSU" when they failed to do so earlier this season.
"The Tigers, the only unbeaten team remaining in the Bowl Subdivision, were again the unanimous No. 1 choice and are headed for a rematch with Alabama. The No. 2 Crimson Tide were picked second on 42 of the 59 ballots and third on all the others."
