Bama fans just can’t take it


3rd&10 came out HOT with opinions on the criteria, then couldn’t come back with an answer on SOS.




















This thread was fun.

Notice he didn't provide a link to the SoS?

And we all know LSU got the benefit of extra games at the end of the year that Nebraska didn't. So once again, if you just want to cherry pick the single stat, then only teams eligible for this discussion are playoff teams.

So grats on greatest team of the past 6 years.

Yeah...it's going to become more and more easy for an SEC team to declare themselves tGOAT since we're likely to see a consolidation of power in the South in the coming decades as football continues to fade in national popularity. An SEC team that wins its division will likely face three straight games against Top 5 teams to close out the year (SEC Championship Game, Semi-Final, National Championship Game). That's not even counting the Top 25 teams they'll face in the regular season.

Seasons like 2019 LSU will continue to become more and more common place.

Of all of the dumb stances you have on this subject, this may be the dumbest. Are you suggesting that NO team has EVER played 5 top 10 teams and/or 7 top 25 teams. LSU is the only team that has EVER had this opportunity?

This is a bad bad move, my man.

Are you saying they due to all that criteria, that the 2019 LSU season is the goat, and that 2020 bama will have their chance at it too? I think that’s what yOu are saying While 3rdandten just Literally did DAYS OF WORK(see below post ) , on this subject and finished putting up some posters of Tom Osborne and Tommie Frazier on his bama wall.

I didn't need the links, I already knew you used 2 completely different services to get them. That was the point.

Neither of them I would personally cite to be honest, but I understand 1995 might have slim pickings. No idea what you would use that one for LSU. Never heard of them. I would probably rank LSU higher than 10. But then I would also rank Nebraska much higher than 30 also.

No, I'm saying having 2 extra games added to the season is the reason it happens.

3 if you want to add the extra regular season game in, but I won't because that's just FCS teams for modern teams and not an actual quality team. Back then, people didn't play FCS teams very often.

Since Nebraska was able to play #2 in the bowl game, that one cancels out. But then you add 2 extra top10 opponents.

Take out those 2 and LSU ends up with less top10 opponents than Nebraska.

Of course, you can't ignore that LSU played them. So in the end, I still give LSU credit for the tougher schedule. It's just not the only factor and it doesn't carry near as much weight as it would 2 teams in the same season being ranked.

When you can make an argument that says 2019 LSU is better than 2019 LSU while at the same time the same argument can't be made for 2009 Alabama or 2010 Auburn(and probably many other teams), then I might think you have a case.

Because the bottom line for me is: Nebraska was noticeable way more dominate and a better team than it's competition than 2019 LSU was. WAY MORE.

To start with, everyone and their mother knows you are super mad about this discussion. You can keep trying to play it cool, but you are obviously really mad about it.

Other than that, it's actually nice to be able to debate the topic with a team other than 2001 Miami and having to be told that the number of draft picks is proof of a better team. I find actually talking about on the field stuff(other than when you guys bring up those stupid awards) to be refreshing.

I haven't spent "Days" on the topic, I've spent "Years and Decades" on the topic. You are the new fish.

He's right SoS wise for SEC teams. The SECCG and the playoffs provide a huge boost on overall SoS.

It was already a decent boost for BCS teams.

Heisman trophy is stupid and means nothing on this discussion.

And everyone has the "best offense ever" now. It's because of rules changes. Your offense was barely better than Alabama's, it's not like it was worlds ahead of other teams.

Go look at the passer efficiency stats for all time. In the top25 list, all but like 2 of them are from teams past the year 2000. One of the others prior was Danny Wuerffel, who won the Heisman in 1995 and only managed 24 points against that Nebraska defense.

So "Best offense ever" isn't really say shite these days. Grats and all, but it's not the accomplishment you seem to think it is - although LSU probably would have been near the top of the list for least likely to do so a few years ago.

You replied to 1 of my posts 3 separate times. I replied to like 4 or 5 different people in response to posts made to me.

How desperate and mad are you?

That's weird since earlier in this thread you were trying to make out like people just started this discussion because of LSU.

Which only highlighted your dumbass really doesn't know shite about the topic. You post because LSU, not because you even remotely know about the other teams in the discussion.

I’d like to see you address that WITHOUT any insults or stats about Nebraska or all of a sudden not caring about the best offense ever

Just take a deep breath and give yourself 10 minutes to touch on your boy’s theory.

Yep, the best LSU team ever could only manage a 5 point win over the worst Alabama team in the past 10 years.

It does feel good knowing your best is barely better than Alabama's worst.

You previously used beating the future Heisman for the '95 Nebraska team. Not only did you include a Heisman winner for your argument, you used the '96 winner for it.

Of course the Heisman is important to this discussion as are the awards ans draft picks. It's a direct reflection of how good the team was and how successful the season was. There's a reason these things haven't happened all together before. It's incredibly difficult and THEN you also add on the fact that it was done vs the most difficult schedule a national champion has ever faced in a conference that set a record for draft picks. The strength of schedule is the kicker, not the main thing as you keep trying to suggest that we're saying.

In this thread, you used the '93 and '94 teams as evidence for your argument. It's hilarious the lengths you will goto to diminish LSU's season.
