Neither was OU.

y'all are quite the histrionic harpies. I didn't mean to upset you by suggesting that you might not win the National Championship. Sorry.


LSU’s defense will slow Clemson down like they did OU and while Lawrence will have some moments the wave of emotion along with LSU’s experience in bigger games THIS season will carry them in front of a mostly home crowd. I think LSU wins by 7. That means I don’t think Clemson wins.

Is this what you call “irrational?”

I've lurked here for a looong time and am not even native to Louisiana, but have lived in Lafayette for several years and am married to a die hard tigers football fan and alumni ...

I don't understand the comparison honestly.

Clemson has played highschool teams all season so I'd expect the team to be ranked near the top in every state on paper. Ohio State was nearly the same.

LSU earned every stat ...every single game starting with Texas.

Clemson was beaten on paper even after winning in the semi-final.

Honestly, LSU wins this game 7 or 8 games out of 10.

LSU is so good in fact observing a dropped or missed pass from burrow to whomever seems absurd. Typically, a missed play is due to an uncalled PI or another anomaly. The team simply makes difficult plays appear routine while other "good teams" are lucky to successfully complete one or two.

I've watched Clemson - they don't have "it" nor are they fun to watch.

Nothing rational about anything you said. You need to leave your emotions out of it.

My man, y’all just had over 500 dropped on y’all by a mundane OSU offense. I still can’t figure out how they were able to lose that game. Your team should be on the sofa eating salsa next Monday.

From what I’ve seen of Clemson, you have a decent defense against a two point conversion on a terrible offensive play call.

While I agree y’all have a very good defense LSU played against three of the top defensive teams in the country. 4,9 & 20 and scored 125 points against them. We will out score y’all because our defense is finally healthy and looking to make a big statement

Then you write a thesis based on your feels.

I hope you have a really good support system after this game, it’s obvious you are severely emotionally attached to this game. Really feel sorry for you.

Remember that Venables coaches defense that couldn’t sub against OSU when Dobbins was hurt. You will see that all night.

Yes, that Venables.

Not only will this slow down your short passing game,

Stopped reading here. You haven't watched LSU play this year. Admit it.

Cool. But you weren’t honest. You left your emotions in it like you said you wouldn’t. It sounds like you’re saying exactly what LSU will do to you what they’ve done to every team(much better competition mind you). Dominate.
