Clemson beat a 14-1 Alabama team that was in line to be the greatest team ever by 28 points. 

Meanwhile LSU barely beat an injury filled 11-2 Alabama team by only 5 points. 

You have to go all the way back to 1957 when Alabama has it's worst coach ever, Ears Whitworth for LSU to match a 28 point margin of victory(28-0). Alabama managed 2 wins that season. Bear was hired the next season. 


And LSU still held Trevor in check.

Which Alabama couldn't do.

You're showing your youth.

Kansas definitely had a surprise season in 1995, but Kansas State was at the beginning of an impressive run that stretched almost a decade.

1993: 9-2-1 (#20)
1994: 9-3 (#19)
1995: 10-2 (#7)
1996: 9-3 (#17)
1997: 11-1 (#8)
1998: 11-2 (#10)
1999: 11-1 (#6)
2000: 11-3 (#9)
2001: 6-6
2002: 11-2 (#7)
2003: 11-4 (#14)

Sure, gramps.

Great stat-filled rebuttal.

“Nuh uh! Just bc over half of the AP Top 10 got beat by LSU ain’t even mean they are that gud! They just beat a lot of Top 10 teams!”



Oh you want stats?

You didn't even finish 1st in any advanced power rankings.

FPI: #3
SP+: #2
FEI: #2
F+: #2

Your team couldn't even show they were the best team this year statistically, much less all time.

Sorry, I was simply not impressed with LSU this year and mostly think you got lucky multiple times. Which isn't really a dis, pretty much every national champion has to get lucky during the season.

But if you want to start going beyond that into greatest team ever, you're just wrong.

I'd rather play 2019 LSU over 2018 Clemson any day of the week. You guys want to talk about Alabama getting their asses whipped, it was 2018 Clemson that did that, not 2019 LSU.

Dude, you sound like such a baby.

They kicked the shite out of their opponents in the SECCG, CFP and championship. LSU was very impressive this year.

I'm curious who you'd consider the best team in 2019.

I lived in Manhattan for these years.

Good times, lots of celebrating and partying. I'll probably never forget when they took the goal posts down aggieville after the Nebraska win.

I was never a K-State fan, but I liked when they would win because the parties were so much better.

I don’t really care one way or the other - I’ve got 0 dog in this fight.

But Yahoo didn’t “name LSU” the greatest football team of all time. LSU was losing to Nebraska before someone mentioned it on tRant and had LSU fans flood the poll results.


Well done on the mass mobilization I guess.

If you are asking about those rankings, Ohio St is #1 in all of them.

Too bad they got screwed against Clemson, I think it would have been a hell of a game.

Tua was fine for the LSU game and he is the reason for the Alabama loss. He tried to win the Heisman and instead made stupid mistakes that cost his team.

You're barking up the wrong tree. There is a reason many Alabama fans hate me, I don't follow their narratives.

That isnt true.

LSU was leading when it was mentioned on tRant then LSU lost for awhile then pulled it out in the end.

Check the thread.

Well yes and no...I guess I can give you that one. We only finished tied for 1st in wins against Bama. Since we had the h2h against AU, you mind giving us the nod?

It was a good season, but they were no where near the greatest team of all time.

Alabama in 2009 went undefeated, but it's no where near the best Alabama team of the past 10 years, and would honestly probably lose to most of the Alabama teams that followed.
