A quick Google search didn't come up with anything but I believe the last time there was a rematch for the National Title was UF-FSU in '96. Pretty similar situation. Florida was #1 and lost at #2 FSU by 3, went on to beat #11 Bama in the SEC championship and then manhandled FSU to win the title in a re-match.
Can't wait to see how this one plays out, my gut is that Bama will win. I think Saban's gonna have those boys riled up and hungry. Not to mention its tough in general to beat a team twice

Punk Thug Named SEC Player of the Week, as well as Walter Camp Player of the Week.
In a first career start at a position he was filling in at for hero of the bama defeat, Eric Reid,
Tyrann Mathieu responded by leading the Tigers with eight tackles, two forced fumbles and
a fumble recovery.
The two forced fumbles ran his career total to 11, which ranks as the seventh-highest total in NCAA
history and ties Guss Scott of Florida for the SEC record. Imagine what he could have done hade
he put the bong down.
In addition to his defensive play against Arkansas, Mathieu returned a punt 92 yards for a touchdown
in the second quarter that tied the game at 14-14. For the year, Mathieu leads the Tigers with 66 tackles
to go along with 5.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, two interceptions, seven pass breakups, six forced fumbles
and four fumble recoveries.
Enjoy your week off elephants, the big boys have a game to play.

NON Punk Thug named SEC Player of The Week for third time as well as Walter Camp Player of the Week.
For a third time this season, Trent Richardson has been named the Southeastern Conference's Offensive Player of the Week. Richardson ran 27 times for a career-high 203 yards Saturday in leading No. 2 Alabama to a 42-14 victory at Auburn. He also caught a 5-yard touchdown pass.
Previously Richardson was the offensive player of the week after a 38-14 victory over Arkansas on Sept. 24 and after a 52-7 victory on Oct. 15 at Ole Miss. He had 128 yards rushing and 85 yards and a touchdown receiving against Arkansas. he ran for 183 yards and four touchdowns at Ole Miss.
And after a career-high 203 rushing yards against rival Auburn last Saturday, Richardson was the Walter Camp National Offensive Player of the Week.
**You know, just for the equal representation and stuff since this kind of thing seems to be a big deal to other fanbases.

Hoping sooooooo bad that Georgia wins this game.... Think it would be such a joke to possibly have 2 teams in the BCS Championship game that couldn't win their own conference.....

Still Won't Change Things Even If Georgia Wins. LSU & BAMA Are The Two Best Teams In College FB. Like It Or Not.

If you are the best team in the country, you win your conference....
If you cannot win your own conference, you should not be National Champion in CFB, because that is the playoff system we have. Nothing anyone says can change my thinking on that.....
Funny thing is, Nick Saban felt the same way a few years ago.....

But again, I hope it plays out like that.... Nothing would amuse me more, than to see two teams that cannot win their own conference championship, play for the National Championship....

Supposedly, He Never Said That, According To Recent Reports. Look At The Record For The Entire Year. LSU & BAMA Are 1&2 No Matter How You Look At It. SEC Is Undeniably The Toughest Conference, Right, Brother?
