You just admitted Bama can't win without cheating.
Checkmate. This is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Haha I didn't admit anything. It was a question about your stupid post? If LSU had Alabamas success, how would you feel? You would feel they were the greatest because they would be given the success we have had!

Yes. Before the Nick Saban era, we were a close second to Notre Dame. We now hold that top spot. It would be very hard for someone other than Notre Dame to knock us out of it, as long as you are looking at the entire history of college football.

If you want to define college football in a way that excludes everything before a certain year, then maybe you could make a different case.

If you eliminated all the teams with more infractions, like Auburn, SMU, A&M, ASU, etc. The teams you mention have been busted numerous times but they have also been at the front of CFB for decades and with that success obviously comes increased attention from the NCAA. If anything it's more impressive that those programs have got the hammer and still succeed, where lesser programs would have folded under the pressure.

I only mentioned the teams that would be considered for the GOAT in college football.

I don't see Notre Dame, Michigan, Texas or Nebraska on the list of teams with the most sanctions.

When considering which college football team is the GOAT should we consider how many times the contenders have been on probation? I think so.

Alabama, USC and Oklahoma would all be in the discussion for the "dirtiest" college football teams of all time. How many times has each been on probation? Should each year on probation be deducted from MNC and conference titles?

I think Notre Dame may be the "cleanest" of all the GOAT contenders.



bama's probation problems didn't occur till the 90's ... we were well established as one of the 2 greatest programs ever, with or without saban's recent success ...

fail ...

We all know "bear" ran a squeaky clean program huh?
Alabama has always been a dirty program. At least admit it like your thick-necked friend just did.

Michigan Texas Neb aren't in the discussion. But ND has kept their closet clean, I can admit that.

I bet Declan Sullivan's family would disagree about Notre Dame being clean.

He seems pretty sour. Probably because LSU is on probation and nowhere near the discussion for GOAT.

People said the same thing for years about Paterno and Penn State being "clean" until you-know-what happened. The only difference is that Notre Dame hasn't been caught (yet).

To say that success had to be because of cheating actually says that success isn't really success, right?

wins vs losses, titles and esteem are viewed as success in every facet of life in every country in the world.
Envy, jealousy and anxious desire are viewed as aspiration everywhere as well.

It's all in your head man.
Celebrate your triumphs, and give praise to your victors.
Life is better when you can do this.
(I was actually happy for the Auburn and Oklahoma kids last year when their teams won their games.

That's odd, I thought I just inserted them into the discussion.

That's why they get my vote for GOAT college football teams.
