Ohio state is said to have a more “complete team” in part due to everyone saying their defense is better. But how come nobody talks about the fact they’ve played 2 offense inside the top 50 for total offense (Indiana at 34 and Wisconsin at 36).

For reference LSU has played 4(Bama @4, Texas@14, Ole miss@ 30 and Utah state @47) and if u go a little higher there’s 3 more teams at 51-53( Auburn@51 ,Florida @53 and Georgia who we are about to play at 52) doesn’t really make sense when u put the numbers out there.

Committee is not going by record for some reason or comparing accomplishments. It's the stupid eye test.

Liberal media just showing love to the team up north. They can’t stand us doing well! Anything great we do always has a different flaw that they jump to.

shea patterson, of all people, was shredding that defense. the second half was a different story due to michigan receivers having bricks for hands. bottom line is, if our line keeps joe protected, that secondary stands no chance against our receivers

Michigan is way overrated.

There was absolutely nothing impressive about that team & they blew every chance to keep the game close.

Countless dropped passes for 1st downs. NO focus. No energy. Poor play calling. How did they win 9 games, unbelievable.

That's all lame bullshite that is intended to dupe gullible useful idiots so the committee could steal the number one seed position away from LSU to screw over the SEC at the same time. The committee's bogus so-called "eye test" is nothing but a damn smokescreen so the committee can inject their anti-SEC bias into the equation.

Even if LSU beats UGA 1000 to 0, with this bullshite committee, Ohio State will remain the number one seed no matter what.

Ohio State has a very good defense, but I don't think they're more talented than LSU's defense! As you posted they really haven't played a dynamic, multiple offense with playmakers at all positions and a good offensive line. Wisconsin is mostly dependent on Jonathan Taylor (stop him and you win), Penn State doesn't have enough talent this year, and Michigan can't run the ball well.

Unfortunately, I think LSU has suffered from complacency on defense at times because of a big leads or an obviously inferior opponent. I think you can see the LSU defense is very good when they're locked in, but they stop playing full speed when games are seemingly in control. They have trouble turning it back on once they've turned down the intensity. Hopefully this doesn't cost them the #1 spot in the final CFP, and Playing well against UGA would go a long way in earning that #1 spot back.

Yeah, Florida and Auburn are light years better than Michigan...and A&M would give them fits...

I rewatched LSU/UF tonight a day after watching Michigan suck balls for 30 minutes, and Trask is a slightly more athletic Shea, UF had better receivers, DBs, RB, Dlinemen...Michigan might have a very slight edge at Oline...
UF gave LSU nearly 56 minutes of greatly executed football

They’ve played 4 teams outside of the top 100 in offensive yardage. That’s 1/3 of their schedule.

OSU looked ill prepared to not have Wade at the slot corner position. They moved an outside corner starter in and he looked lost there. They moved him back outside in the second half and put a second safety on the field

Patterson looked very good in the first half, props to him. Was making nice throws in tight windows. As said his WRs let him down a good bit
