Yates - yes Blackistone - yes (95 Nebraska was his #1 before last night) Paige - yes (he was the most emphatic) Cowlishaw - in the argument, definitely top 3 to top 5, best resume ever
That's an interesting breakdown, since Cowlishaw is routinely the biggest LSU cheerleader on that show.
Yeah it's like he wanted to say it and admitted this is unquestionably the best resume of all time. He just couldn't pull the trigger as respect to the history of the game.
Marcus Spears actually put them behind 2001 Miami. That’s a tough call. 2001 Miami was obviously more talented, but wouldn’t we move the ball on them and stop Ken Dorsey a few times in a neutral site? I’m ok with best resume ever anyway.
Miami had more talent but jeebus, look at the NFL talent on this LSU team. And I would take Joe Burrow over Ken Dorsey 10 times out of 10. Miami only played one top 10 opponent that year. Nebraska in the championship game.
The 2001 Canes have the benefit of knowing how good all of their guys were in the NFL. Hopefully in 10 years our dudes will have a million pro bowls to their names. Here's the better question: did any fanbase ever have more fun? Undefeated, beating all of those good teams, Heisman, and finishing in NOLA?
Tell you what, that’s a good point. When I was watching the 2012 Peach Bowl between LSU and Clemson, I couldn’t believe all of the names from that game from both teams that weren’t household names yet like they are now: JLandry, OBJ, JHill, Deandre Hopkins, Sammy Watkins, and so many OL/DL, DBs. Crazy.
