With better and more consistent defensive and special teams play this year, LSU does not lose to FSU and A&M.


Without the defense they don’t beat Auburn or Arkansas.

nothing about the way the offense performed this year suggests the ceiling next season can’t be an SEC championship and CFP berth if the defense and special teams are improved. THAT’S where the real question mark is for LSU’s ceiling.




That was this years ceiling. LSU was right on the cusp, but clearly a tier below Georgia and tOSU. If they’re going to make the jump into that conversation, Daniels has to improve as a passer.

I’m not saying he has to throw for 6k and 60, but 4k and 30 is what it’s going to take.

I’m not sure how you think that contradicts my point. Had LSU’s defense and special teams played at that better level consistently, their ceiling this year would have been an SEC championship and a CFP berth WITH the offense they had.

Stetson Bennett passed for 116 yards and an INT on 6.1 yards/attempt in a 16-6 win over Kentucky. He did pass for 300 yards against Missouri but only completed 56% of his passes for 7.3 yards/attempt and no TDs while leading Georgia to only 26 points. He had only 140 yards passing against GA Tech. They scored 37 but 20 of those points came from short fields created by defense and special teams. The Missouri game was part of a 3-game stretch in which Bennett had 0 passing TDs and one of 4 games total in which he had none. He only completed 50% of his passes with 2 interceptions against Florida. His inconsistency didn’t stop Georgia from winning the title.
