The thread starts out with a butt-hurt Clemson fan upset that the 2019 LSU team is getting consideration for being the greatest college football team of all-time.

Then the plot twist: it gets invaded by Ohio State fans who think they would've beaten us and still think they're the best team in college football.

How does 15-0 equal the greatest team ever?

Some gems:

quote:

I think the deserve to be in the discussion, and had they beat both tOSU and Clemson I would probably give it to them. But sadly I feel we got sold a little short by not getting to see LSU play vs top tier cornerbacks who could challenge their stud wrs. All i saw this season was possibly the greatest offense of all time skate through their schedule with an average at best defense.


quote:

Another thing you guys need to realize is that i dont really think that LSU is a better team than Clemson, they just match up very well vs your team as their strengths allow them to exploit your weaknesses. I think if Clemson had LSU's regular season schedule you would have worked it better than they did because your defense >> theirs.


quote:

Honestly he has a point tho. If the playoffs were seeded differently, we could have knocked LSU out and played vs you for the natty after you demolished Choklahoma.

I was actually disappointed we got bumped to #2 because you were and still are the last team i wanted to play against in the playoffs. LSU has a horrible run defense, and your D staff knows how to abuse less experienced qbs.


More OSU delusion...

quote:

We matchup better vs LSU. We had 3 corners that can cover their wrs, and a dline that could pressure burrow without having to blitz. On offense our bread and butter is running the football which happens to be the weakness of LSUs defense.

Clemson on the other was a worse matchup for us because your d coordinator runs multiple schemes with many blitz packages/line stunts that confuse the opposing oline and qb.


quote:

Yes. It's not so much about who's better absolutely, but who matches up better. I also think that, given the fact that the QB run game is a more natural part of OSU's offense, their game-planning would have included it. Combined with Dobbins, a virtual twin of Edwards-Helaire, OSU would have given LSU fits.

Maybe on the first possession. LSU would roll OSU worse than Clemson.

I mean this is pretty much the definition of 'better team'. Is there some other definition? Better dressed? Jesus.

Give me the worst Clemson fan over the best Ohio State fan every single time. Y’all about a fricking delusional fan base.

We earned the top seed fair and square. The CFP committee did everything they could to protect Ohio State, until they just couldn't manufacture anymore BS to prop them up. If the Buckeyes were the best team in CFP, then they should've taken care of business against Clemson and met us in NOLA. They didn't, so they need to STFU.

It seems like OSU would like the honor of being beaten by LSU. They are feeling left out...

It's crazy. We beat how many Top 10 teams by an average score of Big Score to little score? Somehow they'd be different? Because they lost to the team we destroyed?

That's some logic right there.

Yet they held etienne who was averaging over 150 YPG only ran for 78 yards against our horrible D. OSU is more delusional than Clemson fans. TL was a more experienced QB than fields. Our D would have feasted on fields passing the ball and if OSU played man coverage our offense would have ran it down their throats until they went to zone then burrow would of let them up.

They are mad cause you whipped are arse . There are always going to be arguments when your talking about the greatest ever . I would say I have not seen a better over all team and without a doubt that is the best offense ever assembled . Look at the numbers and who they were put up against. Burrow is ridiculous . Droppping dimes all over everyone . Just get ready for the detractors now that your at the top .
