Assuming LSU takes care of business in the NCG, what's the legacy of this team? Will it be talked about in the same breath as those two legendary teams?

Huskers put up 53 ppg and allowed 14 ppg. Their closest margin of victory was 14 pts.

LSU is 48 ppg and allowing 21 ppg, closest margin of victory is 3 pts.

Stats say no

Not even going to start talking like this. I remember them stacking up the USC team with the best of all time before the Texas game. I still remember the USC lovefest that was absolutely painful to watch.

No

They’ve got an outstanding offense, but the defense is what keeps them out of that tier IMO

If they house Clemson like Nebraska did Florida, yeah they’re worthy of that conversation.

Way too friggin soon.

A lot of these super teams lose because they r so used to playing way ahead that they wear out when they actually have to play a tight game in the fourth quarter.

Just saying.

Probably better than Miami and Nebraska...but definitely not better than last years Bama team ...the greatest college football team of all time.

No

They have the best pro style quarterback of the three teams but Miami was much more talented as a whole and Nebraska played pretty nearly perfect football for an entire season. In terms of NFL talent it's Miami. In terms of accomplishment for a season, it's Nebraska.

I just want LSU to win and finish the season as the best team of 2019. That's more than enough.

LSU would beat the frick out of both of them. Players were so fat and slow in the 90s and early 2000s.

This LSU team would beat both of those teams soundly.

If you think that makes them the better team through time, then that's just fine.

If not, that is fine too.

1995 Nebraska is still the gold standard IMO. They annihilated everybody.

Their closest game was a 2 TD win over Wazzu, and I think the Huskers allowed two garbage time TDs off of turnovers.
