What I see in this thread are several like me who shite on him in general because we know who he is and pay him little to no mind. I don’t care what he did or didn’t say about LSU and Indiana because he a fricking idiot who’s paid to be a fricking idiot to garner engagement. He could be talking about Ole Myth or anyone else and I would give his opinion the same level of importance- absolutely none.
So you don’t listen to him, don’t care what he says, and don’t think he’s important and you are commenting in this thread about him?

The frustration for some of us is the constant fascination with him here just because he was once a mediocre LSU football player.
I don’t really see him mentioned on here a ton. But he’s an ex LSU player that is now in media. He’s going to be mentioned every once in a while.

All these stupid debates have left me with no choice. I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but Go Canes!

It is an improving conference. There are more teams at the top and a good middle. But Indiana also had the very good fortune to get games vs 6 teams in the bottom half of the conference, and most of them were terrible. Are you really going to tell me that UCLA, Purdue, Michigan St, Wisconsin, and Maryland are any good Penn St was disappointing, but at least they have talent.
No, but I also don’t think Vanderbilt (3-9), Mississippi St (6-7), Ole Miss (4-8), Arkansas (2-10), Texas A&M (8-5), and Texas (8-5) were very good teams either.

Concur!
Once AGAIN…
Who you play matters!
Go ahead and put an asterisk next to every team going forward in The NIL portal era. The “TEAMS” are not built the same. JMU, Tulane, Oregon, Texas Tech, Alabama, UGA, Ohio state and Indiana ‘s current rosters would get annihilated by the pre NIL NC teams… probably going back to the late 90’s!

How you do in the NFL has nothing to do with how good of college team you are.
It absolutely matters after the fact. Puts the talent into perspective on teams tgat run the table and win the natty. People are trolling. It doesn’t matter for LSU but then when people say Miami 01 is the greatest of all time tge first thing they tell you is how many 1st rounders they had and that doesn’t even include how they actually performed in the league. It’s very difficult for people to be objective.

At 4:40 he said “Mendoza is dialed in at a 2019 Joe Burrow semifinal level with in some ways a more complete team than the 2019 LSU due to Indiana’s defense”
Then at 15:40 he mentions the only two other dominant teams that enter his mind (2019 LSU and 2001 Miami) and says even those teams had flaws (LSU defense not dominant and Miami having Ken Dorsey at QB). He said Indiana has no flaws.
He clearly describes Indiana being a better team

Meh. A&M and Texas were as good as a team like Illinois this year. Neither had great coaching, but both teams had talent. That’s a major reach to pair them up with any of the 5 bottom Big 10 teams I mentioned.
Indiana just hasn’t played a team on par with LSU, Alabama or Clemson 2019, so we can never know. Just look at the impact players drafted off of those three teams. None of Ohio State, Oregon and Bama 2025 come close to that level. Miami will probably be the closest they come purely on talent, but it’s doubtful they will be quite on par, either.

This just shows what a hot take clown T-Bob is. LSU’s defense got healthy and better at the very end of 2019. They sat on A&M and UGA, held a dynamic OU offense until the game was well out of hand and then didn’t allow Clemson a point in the 2nd half. This is a fricking brain dead take lacking any context whatsoever.
This kind of shite is why people should just ignore him, whatever he happens to be saying.

Ohio State has 5 projected 1st round picks this year. 3 in the top 10. And that’s not even counting Smith or Sayin.

2020 First Round picks:
Alabama: 4
Clemson 2
2026 Projected First Rd picks:
Ohio State:5
And that doesn’t even include Ohio State best player. If you are only looking at NFL talent, 2025 Ohio State is way better than either Bama or Clemson were in 2019

Only place they better than 19, is the head coach.

He’s turned into a gimmicky talking head just like Paul Finebaum. His life revolves around clicks.

Ok. They played one. They beat them 13-10. How did LSU-Clemson work out?
Keep beating this semantic dead horse, though.

This Indiana team executes better than any time I ever seen. I'd be interested to see if anyone could put a line on this matchup?
Per Grok:
Q:Who would be favored and by how much in a hypothetical matchup between 2019 LSU and 2025 Indiana?
A:
In a hypothetical neutral-site matchup between the 2019 LSU Tigers (the Joe Burrow-led national champions) and the 2025 Indiana Hoosiers (the undefeated, Heisman-winning Fernando Mendoza-led squad), 2019 LSU would be the clear favorite by a significant margin—likely 10–17 points, with a projected score something like 45–31 or 48–34 in LSU’s favor.
This is based on a combination of advanced metrics (like SP+ and SRS), historical context, schedule quality, offensive firepower, and expert/media discussions around these two legendary seasons.
Why 2019 LSU Has the Edge
The 2019 LSU team is widely regarded as one of the greatest in college football history (often called the best of the CFP era or even all-time). Key stats:
• 15-0 record, outscoring opponents 726–328 (48.4 PPG scored, 21.9 allowed).
• Beat seven top-10 teams at kickoff (including Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Oklahoma, Clemson), with four finishing in the final AP top 10 and six winning 9+ games.
• Historic offense: 401.6 passing YPG (led by Burrow’s 5,671 yards/60 TDs), elite efficiency (No. 1 in success rate and marginal efficiency per SP+), and explosive play-making with future NFL stars like Ja’Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.
• SRS rating of ~25.8 (elite for the era), and they faced one of the toughest schedules ever.
• Playoff dominance: 63–28 over Oklahoma, 42–25 over Clemson.
This team revolutionized modern college offenses and peaked perfectly in big games.
