Honestly I’d take 2019 BAMA over 2020 bama. Offense and defense.

And guess what?? LSU beat that bama team in Tuscaloosa.


Because you are stupid and don't understand a team is only as good as it's weakest link.

That 2019 team had to play a true freshman as the MLB(aka the QB of the defense) after the 1st and 2nd string players were injured and out for the season in like the first few weeks of fall camp. He started the entire season as a true freshman, and never started another game or maybe even played in one at Alabama after the year was over.

And the only reason LSU was able to win is because your OC was smart enough to abuse the absolute shite out of him. He could NOT cover a wheel route to save his life and LSU hit that wheel route for 1st downs and/or touchdowns over and over.

And then you have Tua, who was either trying to be a hero to win the Heisman, and ended up injured in the process not to mention giving the ball away in the redzone with an untouched fumble. So we finished the season with Mac Jones who wasn't quite ready for prime time.

In that game, Burrow took what was given to him and won the Heisman, Tua tried to win the Heisman and threw it and the game away.

Also, LSU is more likely to win in Tuscaloosa than the state of Louisiana historically as far as LSU wins go. It's a weird series like that. On the other side, an LSU fan is as likely to see Alabama shut LSU out in the state of Louisiana as they are to see LSU win. BDS is not a difficult stadium to play in, outside the team you have to play against.

I remember fact checking this and it wasn't exactly true.

Who were the players?

Lol are you an idiot?? Because that is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard... Here are the real facts about 2022 UGA:


Back to back national champions
Most points in championship history
Biggest blowout in championship history
Biggest blowout in any bowl ever(we beat this record the next year)
Top 5 offense and defense
Beat 7 ranked teams
Average: +29.4 Scoring Margin against final top 25 teams(which is the highest of all time)
All this in a rebuild year after losing 15 players to the draft and 13 to the portal.
Best of all time.

Sorry, 12.

Still less than 13.

You gotta ask when one of them was Dylan Moses?

The other was Josh McMillon

Making sense of snake-bit Alabama’s season of bizarre injuries, why it’s not like 2017

quote:


There wasn't a single start between the middle linebackers left in the wake of Moses and McMillon's matching knee injuries so it's been mostly up to freshmen Christian Harris and Shane Lee. The transfers of five-star recruits Eyabi Anoma and Antonio Alfano further thinned a front seven that took a hit from early NFL exits following last season.

If it's so easy to play in front of cardboard cut outs, then why didn't LSU win?
Can you explain to me how such a thing is an advantage for 1 team but not the other?



Your arguments are about as solid as a Chinese car.

2020 LSU was replacing their DC, OC, Joe Brady, and like 4 more coaches in addition to ALL the playmakers from the year before. UGA, Bama's fiercest other SEC competition, replaced our disaster of an OC with a totally different style than anything we'd played.
Both teams were working on significantly reduced timelines thanks to Covid, meanwhile, Alabama conveniently replaced their staff the year prior and had a full installion period.

OSU played 5 games in the regular season.

When is the last year comparable to 2020?? 1944?? Can you explain why Bama fans always fail to acknowledge this in their arguments??

IIRC, when I researched this, Harris had basically earned a starting role over McMillon anyway and Lee was Moses' backup.

I think you are talking about "Mike and Wills" because they get swapped around a bit.

Mike is the MLB and the QB of the defense. That went from McMillion to Moses to Lee.

But they can also play Will sometimes if needed(and usually before they play Mike because Mike calls the defense). So you might have seen something like Moses at Will and McMilion at Mike. But as far as the order for Mike, Moses would have been #2 and he did become the Mike after McMillions injury with Shane Lee as his backup.

Harris only played Will as far as I can remember.

I'm somewhat guessing since I do not exactly what you saw or what time date it was from. But that is what happened.

Their best QB ever got shut out 29-0 two years prior during a top 5 matchup in front of a packed house in their own stadium.

Tell us again how much of an impact crowds have against great teams.

It's obvious you're an LSU alter because LSU and Colorado have identical cultures.

What the frick does any of this have to do with cardboard cut out excuses the other person stated?

Name the team that Alabama played where there was this split dimension where Alabama was playing in an empty stadium while the other team was playing in a full stadium.

How many of the 17 points Georgia lost by @ Alabama do you think Alabama fans filling the stadium would have given Georgia?

quote:


OSU played 5 games in the regular season.


This makes it HARDER on Alabama, not easier.

You'll probably go into the next thread crying about how Alabama got a benefit by not having to play in the SEC Championship game in 2017 without a fricking hint of your hypocrisy.

All I know is you're fricking retarded and apparently think Alabama was given special circumstances that made them have different hardships and benefits of other teams. You are obviously someone who just accepts whatever makes them feel best without really ever questioning it.

Try reading sometime and you will clearly see why your post was idiotic. Instead you seem to think the profile of the QB dictates how good a team is, which is another ridiculous take.

2020 was a more difficult season, not an easier season.

In fact, you make the argument for that before you ignorantly pretend Alabama was somehow exempt from the difficulties.

How many of the 17 points Georgia lost by @ BDS do you think Alabama fans would have given Georgia?
