What did I miss?!?


As tide hoops was down 14 or so, he started a Game Thread, name dropped you, and then watched as Alabama went turnover-less from that point onward in route to a victory against the #1 team on the road. As an exclamation point, he changed the thread in hopes that people would stop making fun of him (we won't)

Simply not true. I started a game thread and updated the score continuously. That’s what game threads are.

SP+ is a predictive metric, not a resume metric. Not sure why Bill Connelly is even using that.

Even so, his SP+ formula didn’t even have 2019 LSU ranked #1 in 2019 after going 15-0

So yea, this is definitive as frick


Because Bill Connelly is a drooling goober who went to Missouri. I'd get more outraged about this article if I respected the writer and his method of analysis.

Let me know when Alabama (or ANY team) beats 7-top 10 teams in the same year

Damn, we've gotten up to seven Top 10 teams now?

Final AP Poll 2019

1. LSU [N/A]
2. Clemson [CFP]
3. Ohio State [NO]
4. Georgia [SEC]
5. Oregon [NO]
6. Florida [W6]
7. Oklahoma [CFP]
8. Alabama [W9]
9. Penn State [NO]
10. Minnesota [NO]

Looks like two in the regular season to me.

Mac & company averaged higher points per game and had a much better defense to complement them. It is what it is.

GOAT status confirmed by the world wide leader.

Yeah people go crazy over 2019 LSU but they aren’t near as balanced as other playoff teams. 2020 bama, 2019 Clemson all have great defense. However 2019 lsu defense is a step below. That’s the difference. Even if 19 LSU has the best offense out that group. They would struggle more against the 2018/2020 champs defense than the 2018/2019 offense would against that tiger defense
