So your going to base our future success off of what happened in cfb 20 years ago, am I reading that right?

No.

You stated that what LSU is about to do now that Saban is gone would be my worst nightmare.

I said that’s fricking stupid - since I sat through the DuBose, Fran, and Shula years.

You stated that LSU is playing better ball now than they were during those eras, which is demonstrably false. During the worst stretch in Bama football history, 2000-2007, LSU finished in the Top 10 five times, won 2 national championships, won 11+ games 3 different times, and won 3 SEC Championships.

To sum up: No, what LSU is about to do is not my worst nightmare. No, LSU is not playing better ball currently than they were during their best stretch in program history.
