What the hell is best season even supposed to mean really?
All of the discussion that we've had about the 2019 LSU season, I've been arguing best season and made it a point to always make sure it was known that I wasn't arguing best team because it's too subjective. I really hope you're trolling. There's no way even you are that dumb.
quote:
well, such a thing didn't exist until 2019 apparently.
Of course it did.
There was just never a season that was even close to all of the things that LSU accomplished in 2019. You just choose to say that all of those accomplishments don't mean that it was the best season.

LSU is not leaving the SEC, that's just dumb. Only Tulane is that dumb.

Season has to be even more subjective.
I mean as far as SoS goes, which method are we talking about? Because if you use averages to account for the length of a season, then it might be the case. Some of them stink, and it's not that easy to compare them cross seasons since they are relative to that year.

No, it didn't. I've heard debate about the GOAT team as far back as I can remember.
Never heard anyone talk about greatest "season" ever. Maybe in reference to 1971 Nebraska, but even then it was only a point towards claiming 1971 Nebraska as the GOAT.
"All those accomplishments". Well that's all recency bias because most of those bs awards and things didn't even exist until recently. It's all fluff for the masses.

I’d point out it wasn't even the best team of the playoff era.
Let me guess, the team who got in a dogfight with a 4-loss Florida team during a pandemic season and had a NCG opponent who started their season on Halloween was the best EVAR

LSU almost lost to an unranked in the coaches poll Texas team. Then barely beat Alabama by 5, and only beat Auburn by 3.
That Alabama team was the best of the playoff era. 1995 Nebraska is still the GOAT. Alabama came close, but that 6 point victory over Florida messed up the MoV mojo.
So tell me more about how your multiple wins by 7 and less against lower ranked teams means 2019 LSU was better.
2019 LSU closest victories: 3, 5 and 7.
2020 Alabama: 6, 15, 17
1995 Nebraska: 14, 21 and I forget.

Yeah, the two games that had the other teams scoring late garbage touchdowns to make the score seem a lot closer than it actually was. Using this big-brain logic, 4-loss Florida “almost beat” you.

This take will be laughed at in the near future. My absolute favorite is when you tards use qualifiers that will literally never be granted to teams in the future (like an SEC schedule) because the circumstances of a worldwide pandemic.

Beating Georgia, Oklahoma, and Clemson more than make up for a close victory against Auburn
You’re so caught up in having less “close wins” that you just dismiss all the fricking context. Half the teams you played didn’t even finish with a winning record
LSU also faced tougher defenses than Alabama did.

Every game you just named was add on games. Meaning, Alabama basically did the same thing. You played in the SECCG and the playoffs.

Oh, look who can't grasp that conference games always equal out to .500 overall. Go look at the SEC only records of the SEC teams you played in 2019. Or, just add 3 meaningless cupcake wins to the teams and see all the sudden winning records. Basic math...try it.

If no mistake
4 of 9 of 2019 LSU's opponents had winning records in conference.
4 of 11 of 2020 Alabama's opponents had winning records in conference.

I'm not checking it, because it's about exactly what I expected. Basically the same. Alabama got 2 extra East teams rather than cupcakes.

Alabama fans thinking LSU playing cupcake games is some sort of “own” or “gotcha” will never not be hilarious to me
As if cupcake games aren’t a part of every SEC team’s regular season
As if their own Alabama team this year and in the future won’t also have scheduled cupcake games
They literally have built up this narrative that NO team, even their own Alabama teams of the future, can literally evarrrrr be as good as 2020 Alabama because of scheduled-cupcake games

I like how you used the adjective "top" to describe beating teams like 5-5 Missouri, 5-5 LSU, 4-5 Ole Miss, 3-7 Arkansas, 3-7 MS State, and 4-6 Kentucky. Super impressive slate there.
I think it would be hilarious to see those teams with those records listed on some sort of trophy proclaiming "Greatest Alabama team of all time"

What the hell does this have to do with you not understanding the basic concept that conference games always equal out to a .500 record for the conference? As I said, look at the SEC only records for 2019, as someone else did, and you'll see it's not any different.

Well considering you didn't realize Notre Dame had a top10 defense last year, I really doubt anything you say here is based on actual data. It's pretty obvious you don't know shite.

"Road Environments"? Death Valley looked just like it did every other year in the 4th quarter. Hell, if anything it was a positive for LSU, since it was the first time you even scored a point against Alabama since 2014 in your own stadium.
