That literally has nothing to do with what you’re responding to. Did you think you got him with that?


Glorious correctly stated that LSU fans want all of 2020 to not count.
I responded to his comment and stated that since 2020 is the only year Brian Kelly has a win vs a #1 team, LSU fans want that game, and only that game, of 2020 to count.

Why you had such a hard time following that is a bit puzzling... Or did you actually think that I am an LSU fan because I pointed out that Kelly has "ONE AND ONLY" one win vs #1 teams. Why would I point out that he has "ONE AND ONLY" one win vs #1 teams. Does that sound like bragging?

2022 UGA shouldn’t make the list because they haven’t won the NC yet. They should but anything can happen.

LSU was 5-5 in 2020. What does the data say about that?


That one of LSU’s worst (2nd worst) team in the last 20 years still won 5 conference games in 2020.

That is a very interesting data point as well. Thanks for bringing that to our attention

Any title won in 2020 in any sport will not be thought of as highly

Not nearly as bad as the NBA Bubble title though so y’all got that going

I guess they are purely going off of the eye test for 2022 UGA.

In fairness the title of the article is Ranking all 36 teams that have made the College Football Playoff.

But I agree, it's a bit weird to add teams from the current season.

True, but are you sure they are not comparing their first 13 games?

Ok well I agree with them making the list but they shouldn’t be top 5 yet. If they are going by the eye test, I would add the 2016 Bama team. Greatest defense ever to not win the NC IMO.

They probably are but I don’t think they should be top 5 until they win the NC

However 2019 lsu defense is a step below.

That defense was elite at the end of the season.

50-7
37-10
63-28 (49-14 at half)
42-25

Those last two were against Jalen & CeeDee then Trevor, Tee Higgins and Etienne.

S&P+ is a great advanced metric system but at some point you have to believe what your eyeballs are telling you. Give me Burrow, Chase and Jefferson over any team, you’d have to go back to 01 Miami before I even entertained the debate.

If Kiffin had stayed for the NC, we don’t keep trying to throw up 14 late. Our D was on the field for close to 100 plays. That defense definitely deserved to win the NC!

2019 LSU QB- took perennial NFL loser and one of the worst franchises in the league to the Super Bowl in year 2

2020 Bama QB- plays for 6 time Super Bowl winning coach, has no playoff wins and is losing snaps to Bailey Zappe.

Give me a break.
