They played by a different set of rules. Everyone else took COVID seriously. Bama and Northwestern tossed their nasal swabs in the trash.

They didn't get true home environments either. That cancels out.

The gumps are the ones with the hurt feelings. You guys are having a lot of trouble accepting the reality that nothing about 2020 was normal, including football. Other than this thread, most of the recent threads on this subject were started by butthurt gumps trying to convince themselves that 2020 was even better because it was fricked up.

Actually humiliating LSU in Baton Rouge felt pretty normal.

Fine. Enjoy it. Just don't get upset that it happened during "the COVID season."

An Alabama fan in November: LSU, you bunch of pussies. Look at Kentucky doing their best to at least field something that resembles a team in the midst of unforeseen circumstances due to a global pandemic

An Alabama fan in January: This was a totally normal season, brah

Covid shortened season with extraordinary circumstances, empty stadiums, etc. it’s an asterisk year.


If an empty stadium is the criteria, Tennessee will play an asterisk season each year for the next decade after NCAA penalties hit.

It wasn't a normal season...it was tougher and more grueling than a "normal" season.

A big reason Bama clearly just completed the greatest regular season ever. Being butthurt doesn't change that fact.

And nobody is claiming that Bama wasn't the best team or didn't deserve the trophy. We are just telling you that the season as a whole will be remembered in the context of shutdowns, opt outs, cancelled and moved games, reduced practices, etc. Bama fans are not only denying all of that, but many are actually trying to claim that it somehow makes their season even more impressive. It's typical Bama fan shite, actually.

I don't give a good goddamn how it's remembered by you LSU pussies. Your team fricking sucked dick and you make excuses. It wouldn't have mattered how many players you had available or not, you were getting your asses kicked by Daddy Bama this year. Period.

GOAT SEASON. GOAT CHAMPIONSHIP. GOAT DYNASTY.

But you do. Otherwise, there would be no reason for your post.

When you call it the greatest regular season of all time, comparing it to the normal regular seasons of past champs, you are literally calling it a regular season....

Since Bama fans go by assumptions. I will as well. I assume Mac Jones would suck on the road in a regular season. He threw two pick sixes last time he went into a hostile environment.

How did LSU suck? I thought the SEC was so incredibly strong this year and everyone beat up on each other?

Because a certain group of fans spent all last season bragging about their GOAT team only to see it surpassed a year later...

Now they have to come up with a way to diminish the accomplishments of others cuz they super duper jelly.
