I've never understood why LSU fans remember their 2006 team so fondly. They lost two games, and, if I remember correctly, had several other close games.

I understand that they may have been talented, but lots of super-talented teams underachieve - just look at any USC team from 2005 to 2008 for an example.

LSU fans suggesting that their 2006 team was better than their 2003 or 2011 teams are crazy.

As a Bama fan, I understand reading may be hard. I said, "Best Team to NOT win an SEC title". Clearly if you could read you would notice both 2003 and 2011 did that right?

They got fricked by the refs against Auburn and really beat themselves against us.

I'm no LSU fan, but that 2006 teamw as pretty good. They just had a brutal schedule. They had to go on the road to play 4 top 10 teams if I recall correctly (Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, and I think Tennessee was ranked in the top 10 when they played). They went 2-2 in those games and that team set up a good foundation for the team that won the NC in 2007.

Because LSU had 4 first round draft picks.

First, there is no way the 06 team is better than 03 or 11.

Second, Once Keiland Williams got more playing time, the 06 team greatly improved.

Third, LSU ended 06 on a very high note. Beating SEC West Champ Arkansas (which was a great game) and dominating Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl.
