33 points against the number 1 or 2 team in the nation? This LSU team? No, not to my knowledge. They scored 6 though

Dude, here is your big problem. You're equating passing yardage to how many points a team puts up.
Using your own national championship example, LSU hung 38 on Ohio State.
Guess how many yards they passed for in doing it......
174

In any event, that's not my point. If we can score 33 points, great. I have no doubt nobody scores more than that on us. I brought that stat up only to refute people saying that history proves defense wins championships.

Let me start off by saying that both LSU and Alabama's defense were incredible. That said, the offenses were nothing short of pitiful
I don't think you realize that you answered your own opinion. What would two great D's do to any Offense? Both D's held each other's O to 150yds below their ave.

I'll take the 40 we put up against #6.

damn you really are dense.
there were 15 or more draft picks on the field, just on defense last night.
there isnt a single team in college football that was going to score a ton yesterday.

Really? I wouldn't
And your team would lose...

I am not. I understand they are not the same. I never said I think Oklahoma/Okla St would score 33 points. I just pointed out that the winner of the championship game has scored that many. How they do it is irrelevant. But it disproves the "history proves defense wins championships" nonsense I was getting thrown at me.

So wait, they both looked beatable in one game this year? And it just happen to be in the one game where it had been said that only the opponent could beat the other... shocking that it happened in this game.

And in five of those games, the winning teams scored 24 or less.
Variance is a really cool thing to learn if you're going to start using averages.

Your application of logic is as bad as whatever point you think you're making.

LSU missed 2 wide open receivers for TDs. Nobody wants to address that. Do you people truly believe Luck wouldn't have made those throws?
It's not the fact that they played a close game that makes them beatable. It's that the offenses were very unimpressive even considering the quality of the defense. Two wide open throws missed and two terrible interceptions thrown into double coverage.

the problem with that is you are assuming a stanford player would be "wide open" against either of those defenses.

Who cares? Maybe Luck would, maybe he wouldn't.
You don't think LSU would be able to run at will against Stanford, wear down their defense and use the play-action to hit the big ones?
You know...just like they did in pretty much every game this season before they ran into Bama's semi-professional defense?

And of those 5 games(out of 13), only 1 did the winning team score less than 20. You are a total fool if you think that those numbers are very scewed by a non-normal distribution. I don't feel like calculating the variance, but from the looks of it, it is not very high.

That's what I asked originally, and I said that, personally, I think we could. I still believe we have the best team but I am now a little bit less confident that we can score enough points.

So who's team are you trolling for? You clearly are not an LSU fan...

TheSexecutioner give it up your arguement is weak and full of holes.
Did you hear Urban Myer after the game talking about the defense players on the field last night and that he has never seen anything like it not even close?
