ehhhh, you'll hook plenty on this one
i can live with it, the fact that LSU put up an all time team in the midst of the saban era is pretty remarkable on its own merit.

2014 FSU probably dead last. God that team was frustrating to watch.

ESPN hates LSU

They are likely the two best teams of the playoff era, and that article is going to get a lot of clicks.
Solid job by that writer.

ESPN also had LSU like 3rd or some shite in their FPI at the end of last season so cool

LSU could’ve easily hung 60 on Clemson last year
Missed a FG and kneeled time out in the red zone to end the game

Lmao. Imagine thinking anything from 2020 is the best or worst. So dumb

LSU 2019:
Played actual road games (hostile environments)
Beat a Clemson team that was on a 29 game winning streak and 14-0 on the season
15-0
Bama 2020:
Covid hits
Players all over opt out
Games are canceled and rescheduled
No fans
Defenses across cfb are down
Face a team that shouldn’t even have played in their conference title game and was only 7-0
Bama did what they had to do but I don’t see how you can put them over 2019 with how out of wack the 2020 season was.

I have zero problem calling this Bama team the most dominant champion in the CFP era, or even the BCS era. In a year where many teams slacked or simply couldn’t power through the COVID obstacles, Saban kept his already hungry team (bc of missing playoff last year) focused and performing at a level nobody else could sniff. I think teams performed at a lower level this year across the board bc they were missing players and couldn’t play/practice as much (which seems obvious), so in a simple “who would win” comparison I wouldn’t take 2020 Bama as the best, but I think they dominated the season more than any previous modern champions.
I estimate that their offense this year was (without Waddle) equal to LSU’s last year in terms of firepower, which is damn impressive. They were inarguably more efficient, but I think that’s largely because of COVID camp/practice restrictions disproportionately damaging defenses (offensive stats across CFB improved more this year than recent trend would’ve projected). 2019 LSU had a more experienced and talented defense than did 2020 Bama, so I’ll still consider them the “best” CFP champ for now.
