There's plenty of competition for the best team of the College Football Playoff era and here's why the chatter starts with the 2019 LSU team, PaulMyerberg writes.
College football's first 15-0 team in more than a century, Clemson put an exclamation point on its second crown in three years by trouncing Alabama in the title game. That night was the coming-out party for true freshman quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who grabbed the starting role in late September and put together a rookie year for the ages. While 2016 Clemson was special, the 2018 version is the best team in program history.
But the Tigers were motivated by that defeat and played their best football from that point forward, culminating with wins against Virginia Tech in the ACC championship game, Ohio State in the Fiesta Bowl and the Tide.Alabama beat eight ranked teams to snap a two-year dry spell with a national championship. After giving up 43 points in a September loss to Ole Miss, the Tide would allow just 10.7 points per game in the next 11 matchups before winning a 45-40 classic against Clemson for the title.
