Based on your arguments, thats basically worthless, because you're somewhat of an idiot. You can't even get your head around the idea that being called a co-champion doesn't take away anything from LSU since its happened so often in college football.

Two huge flaws in that statement:
1) The AP poll was considered the national championship for 70 years. How many times have I said this? It didn't just lose all credibility as soon as the head of a handful of conferences got together to invent a championship.
2) One of the BCS' biggest flaws is that it only incorporates the members of its own conferences. Remember the first few years, the Pac-10 wasn't even included. And no mid-major conference is guaranteed any consideration. So again, just a bunch of major conference leaders getting together to guarantee themselves the most money possible form their bowl games and the TV revenue they generate. How many times have they juggled match-ups arouind to make them more attractive to CBS? The BCS was created to generate revenue; you act like the title game is some sacred event.
LSU beat an overrated Oklahmoma team that wasn't even able to win its own conference. I would say that USC absolutely demolishing a Michigan team that won the Big 10 ( a much tougher conference than the Big 12) is easily as worthy of being a title game.
I'm still not sure what you're arguing though. You are in the vast minority in thinking that LSU winning the BCS game that year somehow makes them a more legit champion than USC. It's maybe you, and the other LSU fans.
