I'm assuming you responded to the wrong person, but either way I agree with you...although LSU's defense would give 2001 Miami fits I think. Miami tried to repeat against OSU's defense the following year with a team practically as good, but couldn't.

I might be biased because I think Tommie Frazier is still running, but the '95 Nebraska team that won the Fiesta Bowl would put a serious hurting on LSU. I do think LSU's the best team in college football this year, just ahead of 'bama, but they're not an all-time great team.

That game must have been tough for you to watch, hrudey. It would've been fun to see what Frazier could've done in the pros if it weren't for those blood clots. I think the 2001 version of Thug U. has a slight edge on the '95 Huskers, if only because of the massive amount of talent they had on both sides of the ball. 17 future first round draft picks on one team is stinking ridiculous. LSU's current team is a distant third at best to both of these teams. You need better quarterbacks than Jefferson and Lee to be considered an all-time great team, in my opinion.

Frazier was not going to be a good pro QB, but I think he would have been an excellent receiver. As for the Thugs being better than LSU, it's not like Ken Dorsey was a future 1st round pick, eh? Maybe better than the other two, but Jefferson brings an extra dimension. 17 future first round picks....but they all weren't playing that year. Still loaded, but overrated in my opinion as like i said, basically the same team lost to OSU the next season.

I do think 95 Nebraska is better, but that wasn't the BCS era yet, was it?

Neither was Jason White, but anyone with half a brain would take either of those two over Jefferson. Great college QBs.

The Bowl Alliance was a mini version of the BCS, I think we can include the '95 Huskers for the purpose of this debate.

I came into this thread hoping for some Jamarcus Russell chat but I was disappointed.

I'm fine with including them, but did not think they were mentioned earlier because of this reason.

It's funny you mention Jason White. I just happened to go to high school with that guy. lol I was a sophomore when he was a senior. Jason White didn't make it in the pros because of his knees, Dorsey didn't make it because of his lack of talent. White ran a 4.5 when entering OU. Rushed for 100 yards against Texas when he was subbed in for the first time in 2001. Crazy stuff, but injuries killed him. Arm strength was there, but the guy had about 10 surgeries on knee, hand, foot, etc... in college.

Another interesting note is that Miami signed Dorsey after White passed up an offer from Miami. Worked out well for both I would say. Another side note to that is that White had his offer taken back from Tennessee when they got a verbal from Chris Simms...then Simms switched to Texas and Tennessee was left hanging.

Not really. He wasn't anything special in college. He did earn all-conference honors for one season (of course the SEC is not QB heavy) and was honorable mention on the all-american squad. The funny thing was that he didn't even have the starting job wrapped up until right before the season. Matt Flynn and Ryan Perioloux were all involved in a battle for the spot even though Russel was the incumbent.
