It's funny to me that Clemson is at the top now because it was LSU that put them there. Lol They beat LSU in that bowl game (Chik-fil-A bowl I think) awhile back, and they have never looked back turning into a powerhouse program after that historic win for them. They barely beat a terrible, conservative offensively challenged Les Miles team back then, but it made them believe in themselves that they could now play with the big boys. Flash forward to today's program and how the mighty(LSU) have fallen. LSU can get all of that back by just winning another NC, but easier said then done, right? Lol LSU hasn't really fallen that far off the course, they just can't beat Alabama anymore it seems, and as a result it has had an effect on them. LSU has to beat Alabama and Saban, no way around that, Alabama is in their heads right now. You win championships and recruiting and all of that stuff becomes easy again.

After Mett missed the wide open receiver six yards away on that critical third down that would have put the game on ice.

What? That was probably the best offensive team we've had in the past 15 years! Some of y'all I wonder if you just started following LSU last year.
