I say going undefeated in a Covid year is way more legitimate.

COVID year has such a big asterisk that they gave players an extra season of eligibility for it.

Trick question ... every year, every sport only awards one Natty. If you get that trophy - you don't care about the circumstances. They only handed out one. You got it. Everybody else that year can suck it - and look at their empty hands. Everybody comparing year to year can safely be ignored ... while you polish your Natty.

The "Covid year" troll attempts would probably sting a lot more if we didn't have eleventy billion other titles to console ourselves with.

It was a Natty, right ? Then you polish that bitch to a high shine and put it in the trophy case, front and center, next to all the other Natty's.

Y'all need a wider shelf than most. More levels. Bigger glass. Congrats on a job well done.

To do any different would be an insult to the kids that won that Natty. They didn't invent Covid. They didn't have a damn thing to say about the reaction to it. Games were played, and they won enough of them to get that Natty. Same goes for a two loss team that gets the Natty. You got the Natty. Never apologize for getting the big prize at the end.

They are both legit. We just have the sense not to try to compare 2007 with 2019...

I don’t care if it’s 2 losses or 5 losses. If they are the best team, then they are national champions.

Did every student athlete on a roster gain an additional year of eligibility in 2007?

UGA was the best team in 2007 though.

Covid was the year that there were no off weeks for playing nothing teams. There was no home field advantage. It showed who was dedicated and who wasn't. If anything it makes it more legit than any other season.

Although the 2007 LSU team earned it in the craziest year of the sport, UGA seemed unstoppable at the end of the season.

Neither team had that brutal east to play through so it’s hard to tell…

I was worried throughout the 2020 season. That we'd win that one and then we'd never heat the end of it from other SEC programs, particularly Bama.

You and your ilk will simply have to accept that in the 21st Century, LSU has more Football Nattys than the Georgia Bulldogs.

Period. End of Discussion. End of thread.

We can only win one at a time. We're getting there as quickly as we can. Turns out, it goes faster when you string 'em together.
