2019 LSU Tigers the BEST football team ever?

Listening to an interview I heard someone ask Trevor Matich if This version of the LSU tigers are Historically the best college football team ever.

I’m thinking to myself, well that’s a little bit of a leap. It’s a hard question to answer. Sure they are better than championship teams from the beginning of college football to the modern era. Teams before 1990 would be physically overwhelmed. It’s not debatable how much bigger and faster the players are today. They physically could not hold up. I am thinking to myself the only way would be if they could play each other.

I am thinking all of these things while I am waiting on his response. Then he said “Yes this is the best team to ever play college football”.

I am thinking what? He then said if they win tonight, this LSU tiger football team will be the only team in the history of college football to have beaten 5 teams that finished the season in the top 10. Mind you, not teams who were ranked when they played, but teams ranked in the top 10 at seasons end. If you count teams ranked In the top 10 at the time they played, the number goes to 7. The combined record of the 5 Top 10 teams LSU beat this year is 60-8....That is ridiculous and the winning percentage of all LSU 2019 opponents was 67.8%....

Also Herbstreet said that this is the best offense to ever play. It is the first time ever that college Defenses have had to play A college QB running a true NFL system, running NFL route concepts with NFL matchup concepts and QB consistently making NFL Reads and going through all the progressions of an NFL route tree. Not even Payton Manning In college ran a system that demanded NFL caliber reads and progression on every route concept.

Finally, it was stated That even though in his opinion no one has ever made the improvement from one year to the next that Joe did, Joe did not go from being a Decent QB to what he is today. He said Joe was a Great QB finally given the tools and allowed to use those tools to show how good he really was. He said sure he got more experience and improved, but you don’t go from ok to maybe the greatest to ever play. if you don’t already have greatness in you.


With all that said, with what we have to work with, and the information we have at our disposal. When you consider that the LSU defense after finally getting healthy, played like a Top 5 Defense in the last 5 weeks, I think we have to say yes.

This is the best team to ever play college football. Well, at least they can definitely Be put in the discussion.
