It has taken me 2 years to get over the debacle in the Superdome which, until now, ruined the whole season for me. But I've spent the last couple days watching the games from 2011, and even without the NCG win, I think 2011 was still the best ever football season for LSU.

We were absolutely dominant in every game except the two Alabama games. Dominant in games against 9 top 25 teams.

We beat the #3 ranked Duckies
The #25 Moo State Bassett Hounds
The #16 ranked Mountaineers
The #17 Gators
The #20 Auburn Tigers
The #2 Alabama
The #3 ranked razorbacks
The #16 ranked Georgia Bulldogs

It would have been the best football season by any school ever if we could have beat Bama in New Orleans. Yeah, it's disappointing, but that team was awesome.

The BCS gave us the big middle finger and made us play Bama again. I will always hate the BCS system for what they did to what could have been the greatest college team ever

3 of those teams weren't ranked at the end of the season(Moo U, Auburn & UF...we beat 5 top 25 teams.

We still dominated a bunch of quality opponents. Think our average margin of victory in SEC play was something like 38-7....which is incredible.

1 Alabama (59) 12-1 1475
2 LSU 13-1 1404
3 Oklahoma State 12-1 1367
4 Oregon 12-2 1290
5 Arkansas 11-2 1188
6 Boise State 12-1 1162
7 Stanford 11-2 1106
8 South Carolina 11-2 1084
9 Michigan 11-2 925
10 Michigan State 11-3 912
11 Wisconsin 11-3 911
12 Baylor 10-3 775
13 TCU 11-2 710
14 Houston 13-1 673
15 Oklahoma 10-3 610
16 Kansas State 10-3 602
17 Virginia Tech 11-3 574
18 West Virginia 10-3 554
19 Southern Miss 12-2 429
20 Georgia 10-4 345
21 Cincinnati 10-3 248
22 Clemson 10-4 237
23 Florida State 9-4 205
24 Nebraska 9-4 144

I seen the analogy on here a few years ago that said "it was like dating an OT 10 then realizing she had a penis"

IMO both the 2011 Bama and LSU teams should be considered top 10 CFB teams ever.

Thinking about that season and having to play Bama twice makes me sick to my stomach.

13-1 > 12-1when both teams were 1-1 to each-other, that is all.

It sure was. It did however change the way I follow sports as an adult. Nothing can be assumed and don't get too high or low. It's a travesty such greatness ended with a black eye
