Claiming 1908 would put LSU football into the same number of national championships as programs such as Nebraska and Miami. The great Doc Fenton was also retroactively given the Heisman that year. The 1908 team out scored its opponents 442-11. I see there being zero disadvantages to claiming the 1908 title. The 1908 team should be respected with the recognition they deserve... the NCAA even claims us as winning that year! There is even a blank placard next to the 2019 placard waiting to be engraved. I’ve emailed Woodward around 5 times now but no response.

I know this is stupid, but if anybody knows Woodward or has mutual friends with him please push it! Geaux Tigers!

2019 team would beat the brakes off the 1908 team

ETA: Before anyone gets pissy, that was a joke

I can imagine 100 years from now LSU fans (if football still exists)..not appreciating the LSU teams of the early 2000’s..especially the 2019 team. So I’m all for it.

I should edit by saying I don’t think they’re the greatest..just that they deserve recognition

I truly don’t get fans like you. Literally don’t want to recognize a title we won, pathetic.

And I truly don't understand people that take comments too seriously like you. But we did play the young men's gymnastics club that year.

Wait..you really think LSU fans are going to appreciate the 2019 team anywhere close to what we do in 2119?

I remember attending those games with my dad and we ran roughshod over every opponent.

Don’t forget we crushed juggernaut “Louisiana Industrial Institute” of Ruston that year 22-0 scoring 11 points in both halves.

Football was weird back then.
