Former Tiger wide receiver Justin Jefferson made a statement recently about the 2019 National championship team that many LSU fans would agree with.

Speaking with Complex, Jefferson said the 2019 team is the greatest College Football team ever.
quote:

That 2019 LSU football team, y’all dominated the NCAA but you all are also dominating the NFL right now. What is it about that team that was so special, and do you think its’ the best team ever in college football?

"Definitely the best team ever in college football. We went undefeated, Joe [Burrow] won the Heisman, Ja’Marr won the Biletnikoff, we had coach of the year, Jim Thorpe went to Grant [Delpit]. It was just so many different things that went our way that year, and we all bought into the process. We were all there for two or three years, so we always had those type of players there to put us over the top. Then Joe Brady came in that 2019 season and changed the whole offense and we went crazy. It was definitely a fun year that whole year, how we went crazy and turned that around and went undefeated like that. I felt like we always had those players, we just had to get into that right system, and of course, we had one of the best quarterbacks to play."

I do think it was the greatest CFB team of all time. 2001 Miami is in the conversation, but that 2019 LSU squad had no weaknesses.

I was around for those others and while they were good that 2019 team would have dominated them all. The Nebraska team that kicked the shite out of Florida in the Tostito bowl would be a distant second greatest.

1992 ALabama NC team would demolish them. LSU would be lucky to score on that 92 Defense, and Alabama could have put up17-20 on that mediocre LSU defense.

Four factors determine the truthfulness of a theory or explanation: congruence, consistency, coherence, and usefulness. A true theory of The 2019 LSU football is the best team to ever play college football is congruent with our experience – meaning, it fits the facts.……… Justin Jefferson knows truth.
