No one here said they didn’t deserve to be on the field with them.
IIRC, that OU team was the highest scoring offense of all time and Florida held them to 14 points.

Seems pretty obvious how good the SEC defenses are in championship games.

Maybe they would. Maybe they wouldn’t.
LSU is facing the #1 defense in the country right now. I wonder how they’d do against one that didn’t even rank in the top 100.

I can't remember who was calling the OSU/Stanford game but he made a really interesting point about how OSU's D was really bad statistically.
He pointed out that because of the pace that their offense plays at and scores at that the defense then faced more plays from the opposing offense. And because of this they tend to allow more yards and points per game than most other D1 teams.
They showed a stat where OSU led the country in turnovers forced(and please keep in mind I'm not referencing this, just pulling it from memory so I may be off on some of these stats) but were something like 105th in total defense.
The OSU defense faced something like 300 more plays than Alabama's defense did this year(regular season of course) and that contributed to the varying difference in statistical rankings of the 2 defenses.
I'm not sure where Alabama's offense finished statistically in the country but they do play a slower paced "grind it out" offense.
I just thought it was a really interesting point that was made during the Fiesta Bowl.

I’m out. Good luck with your seething jealousy. 
So I'm curious to know this: Does Auburn celebrate this title as well?
I mean they are Alabama's biggest rival. Do the Auburn fans sit in their living room and cheer "S-E-C, S-E-C"?
I get that it's quite an impressive accomplishment for one conference to do this. I just can't see myself cheering the Green Bay Packers on in the Super Bowl just because they play in the NFC North and I am a Lions fan. It doesn't make me feel any better about the Lions results.
I guess I will just never understand this.
