In my opinion, it is really hard to compare the two.

Who would really know how Alabama would have faired against 2019 LSU non-conference opponents: Georgia Southern, Northwestern State, and Utah State.

I don't think you can just assume that's 3-0. Alabama didn't have to sweep a slate outside of their conference this year.

Cant wait for some Bama fans to try and claim Mac Jones had a better year then 2019 Burrow

Plenty were last night on the SEC Score Board. Haven't seen too many do it now though.

Resumes alone, LSU easily wins this. And don’t forget, LSU played at Texas and at Alabama in front of full stadiums. Alabama’s* toughest road games were at LSU and at Tennessee in empty stadiums.

No way Alabama* beats 2019 LSU. No one would.

Also here were LSUs road games last year excluding Alabama


Yeah, let’s exclude the best team to make the comparison better.

Sorry, your team was great this year. But nothing about this year should ever be compared to a normal season...ever. That goes for all sports, with the possible exception of NFL.

Who gives a shite what they say. ESPN fluffs Bama and Ohio State when they're good.

They probably got quiet when they looked up Burrow’s game log against Clemson v. Jones’s against OSU
