How does this team compare to the greatest all time?

Not if we dont win. Then we are just another team

#1

If we win our next 2 games, we will be unparalleled. NO team will have defeated more top-10 teams in one season. In such games, we would be 7-0. Unreal.

Let’s get there first.

We Comin’.

Never ever thought that team was the greatest ever.

1995 Nebraska was the best team ever, imo, followed by 2001 Miami.

Great teams...but they only had to win 11 regular season games and a bowl game to claim a NC. Only one team has ever gone 15-0 and that was Clemson last year and as it turned out, only 3 teams they played finished in the Top 15. There is a good chance that 6 LSU opponents will finish in the top TEN this year.

If LSU runs the table, how do you not consider that the greatest team of all time?

1995 Nebraska and 2001 Miami would’ve won 100 games if that’s what it took.

You can’t penalize them for the system that was in place.

Defense probably was.

Spurrier and Wuerffel thought the same.

Wuerffel won the Heisman that year and Florida had a more dominant season than we are having now.

Entering the 1996 Fiesta Bowl, Nebraska had won 24 consecutive games, but some (including Sports Illustrated in their 12/26/1995 issue) still picked Florida to win the game due to the no. 2 Gators' overwhelming speed on both sides of the ball, even though oddsmakers had made Nebraska a substantial favorite.[2] Florida coach Steve Spurrier's "Fun 'n' Gun" offense, led by future Heisman Trophy winner Danny Wuerffel, provided a stark contrast Tom Osborne's I-form power option.

Nebraska defeated Florida 62–24, marking the largest margin of victory and highest score in a national championship game in history. Included among several NCAA bowl records the Huskers set was a rushing total of 524 yards (out of an offensive output of 629 yards). I-back Lawrence Phillips carried 25 times for 165 yards and two touchdowns and caught a 16-yard touchdown. Quarterback Tommie Frazier finished the game with 199 yards on 16 carries. The game also included one of the most famous plays in college football history: a 75-yard touchdown run in the third quarter by Frazier in which he broke no fewer than seven tackles. Florida had won every one of their first 12 games by double digits and the Gator offense averaged over 44 points, 360 passing yards, and 534 yards of total offense per game. The Nebraska defense limited the Gators to 269 yards of offense and -28 rushing yards while registering a safety, seven quarterback sacks, and three interceptions, including one returned 42 yards for a touchdown by Michael Booker. The Huskers' 29 points in the second quarter set a Fiesta Bowl record.

Wuerffel won the Heisman the year after the Nebraska loss.

Knock on wood and shush up. A lot of us said the same thing in 2011.

If LSU wins their next two, then an EASY argument can be made for the case of GOAT. Until then, let's all shush on that right now?
