2001 miami is one of the most overrated teams in the history of sports. The ENTIRE reason they are looked as so highly is because of what that whole roster did in the pros, which is entirely irrelevant to the conversation of best college teams.

also, they're clearly trolling with 2020 bama being so low.

These lists are for chatter only. 2001 Miami was only leading Boston fricking College 12-7 with 20 seconds left in the game and the Eagles had it in the redzone for a chance to win.


2019 LSU almost lost to Albarn, and Florida had a chance to tie late. 2020 Alabama had an all-SEC schedule with no close games. Why is 2019 LSU ranked higher than 2020 Alabama?


LSU beat Florida by 14 points and led AU by ten with a couple minutes left. AU scored late to make it a three-point game and LSU milked the clock out. LSU went 15-0 and was never in position to potentially lose a game all season on the last drive.

This was probably the 6th or 7th best team of the Saban era.

They got number 1 right

01 Miami is so fricking overrated. Boston College would have beat them if their best player was playing. 86 and 87 Miami is way better

05 USC > 04 USC its not even close really.

09 Bama is not even top 50. 20 Bama doesn't belong near the top 20 either.

22 Georgia aint top 50 either

Where the hell is 13 FSU? 97 NU? 86 PSU? 72 USC ?

Are these in relation to the teams at the time or all-time? I mean, there is just no way a corn fed Nebraska team running the system and philosophies of 1995 are beating teams like 2019.


Notice that there's a team from the 1940s on there and then think about this question again.

2021 is the best team we've ever fielded. 2022 had a slightly worse defense and a moderately better offense. They were only truly challenged like twice all season. The throttling they put on LSU is clouding your judgment of how good that team was.

And that was before NIL and the portal started ruining the game. That team was built on recruiting and talent development.

2023 Georgia was the best team in the country. Kirby just choked in Atlanta. Had that year been a 12 team playoff they win it all.

Fully agree. The only team even halfway capable of beating us that year was bama and of course they did. They had the same hex over us that Florida did for most of richts tenure
