EVERY single time the world has anointed a team prior to the end of the season "BEST" they wind up stumbling. For the love of God, let this thing play out. They could be or they could be that team with the exception of that one arse whooping LSU could deliver as retribution for our NC debacle.

2003 OU team comes to mind. Best team ever.....only to have KSU whoop that butt then they ran into us in the NC game. 2 losses to end the season.

Our 2011 season, only to have BAMA not allow us to cross the 50.

You get the point.

It's only appropriate to have these conversations post NC game.

Don't misunderstand my post, I'm definitely not saying they're the best ever. Can't say something like that until the season is finished. I'm just saying it's not the worst defense we've fielded in Sabans tenure. Our first string defense has played really well. It's our 2nd and 3rd string that's giving up a lot of the points.

I have no idea how this Alabama team will be measured by the end of the year, but due to a fairly pedestrian offense, the 2011 LSU team wouldn't be in the conversation of best ever.

even excluding the 21-0 loss to Alabama in the title game
