It's very arguable that the 2019 Bama team was actually better than the 2020 Bama team.


And their 2018 team was better than both. Now they lost the NC by 28 so aren’t in any discussion like this. But that roster was freaking loaded.

The notion that 2020 Bama was superior is a preposterous joke. They played in front of empty stadiums against teams missing multiple starters and stars due to COVID. That team NEVER had to play in front of a capacity, hostile SEC crowd. They never had a true road game. Ever. Not once. They never faced an opponent with its full compliment of players. They played in a bizarre, aberrant, surreal, Orwellian year when most players and fans were distracted and indifferent. Total indefensible joke.




You can make an argument that that team is a testament to the absolutely insane hyper focus of Nick Saban, but it's preposterous to try to take it beyond that and compare it to teams of any other years.

Both LSU and Bama had unreal teams in 2019... LSU kids won the Natty and left... Bama didn't even win the Alabama state championship that year. So all the Bama kids came back.

We will all look back one day very soon and say that the 2019 season was the last season of college football as we knew it. With COVID in the 2020 season and the new transfer rules and now NIL payments.

Meanwhile Burrow, Chase, & Jefferson are superstars in the league while the Bama 2020 players are not.

You have to believe alabams has some sofisticated PR where they pay some of these media shills for crap like this.

Don’t think, you’re right don’t think Nobody defeated more top 10 teams and also outscored CFP opponents 105-53, in other words 52.5 - 26.5 a double skull drag

Regardless of any Covid BS that year, Bama was just plain nowhere near 2019 LSU level. These lists are made by trolls.

I think we wrapped up this thread nicely. It’s not like there’s even a debate, it’s just a writer trying to get more clicks. If he put us first, everyone would be like, “No duh” and move on. Now you click just to see what argument he is even trying to make, and of course it’s a bad one.

I think the fact A&M only lost one game that year is weird enough

No one would have clicked his article or read his ranking if he put LSU first where everyone knows it should be.

Bill C is disappearing up his own a-hole as usual. There is no chance in heaven or on Earth that the LSU team that went in to a sold out Bryant Denny and beat the same team plus Jerry Jeudy, Tua, Henry Ruggs, Trayvon Diggs, and Jedrick Wills would not have done the same or worse the next year.
