To add to this thread, I would have loved to seen 2019 lsu v Osu. I still can't believe osu blew it against Clemson. They were clearly the better team, IMO.

Well the officials clearly blew the game but even if OSU wins that game, they weren't beating LSU 10 days after. Fields had a bad knee and Dobbins got hurt during that game. OSU would have needed a fully healthy offense to have a real shot against that LSU team. By end of that year, you needed to be able to put up 40+ just to be competitive with them in games.

I guess the other way to look at it is if OSU was the 1 seed, they probably get by OU, and LSU gets by Clemson, so you get that title game. Still think LSU would have been a rightful favorite
