By the end of the year, I off the top of my head i can count these players that didn't play for LSU:

Arik Gilbert
Derek Stingley
Racey McMath
Jamar Chase
Terrace Marshall
Tyler Shelvin
Neil Farrell
Justin Thomas
Kary Vincent (Drafted)

Most Started in 2019... There are waaaaay more.

A microcosm of the SEC in General as referenced by your many posters that say that LSU opted out....disparaging their competition, just like they said that ND and OSU didn't belong there.

I understand that you aren't responsible for what Earlycuy and Cajunbama say....nor do you want to associate yourself with them.

But the fanbase in general stated that either some teams were a bunch of pansies for not playing, or some CFP contenders didn't even belong.

That just doesn't scream "Best season or accomplishments of all time." It wouldn't to you either if the team doing that weren't crimson.

LSU was not a microcosm of anything but LSU. LSU had BY FAR the most COVID issues in the country of a power 5 team.

The SEC, in general, did not have a ton of COVID opt outs compared to some of the rest of the country. LSU was hit the hardest and there really wasn't a close 2nd other than maybe South Carolina once their season collapsed and Muschamp was fired.


But yes, as noted, I'm not arguing best of all time or anything. I think this team could have done it in a normal year (and would have), but they didn't get the opportunity and they had to do it in a weird year.
