Auburn, Florida, USCe, and A&M are between now and then. The media is definitely lining up the Nov 3 game, just like last year.

Which of these 4 games is the biggest hurdle? I'd have to say Florida.

Which is the "trap game"? I think it might be A&M.

Who scares you?

Auburn was two fluke plays away from losing to ULM and starting 0-3. We will cream them.
Florida will be a test, but we will pull away in the second half.
aTm....really? With a freshman QB? Uhhh no.
USCe has Clowney and he's really the only threat i see. I'm not scared of Shaw one bit and the freshman won't stand a chance.


ETA: i think Miss State will be the most "competitive" of all of these games listed. Maybe on par with Florida

The scheudle is lining up nicely and gets tougher and tougher as we move forward - which is good for LSU.

Auburn away from home will be a good test but we should pull away in 2nd half - if not sooner.

Florida is playing excellent 2nd half of football games and you know they remember last year's embarassing loss in Tiger stadium so look for a 4 quarter battle there in Gainsville.

USCe could be challenging. They will be ranked in the top 10 still but I think we beat them up again. They seem to be over-rated.

Renewing A&M rivalry will be emotional but we have the better team and LSU will be well represented over in College Station.

Nov. 3rd is still going to be THE game! Good thing for LSU (assuming 'Bama runs the table b/w now and then) is that a loss b/f Nov. 3rd won't kill our BCS title or SEC championship hopes.

LSU is poised to be there once again. 2012 looking great - so far..... so very good! Geaux Tigers.

Ive been saying it all year, A&M will be a very tough game. Playing in front of a loud Kyle field crowd against perhaps best offense in the SEC.

wont be a cake walk like lots of people on here have predicted. Trust me Im around nothing but Aggies via friends and co workers and they have the LSU game circled as "the game" of their year.

I still think we win but i could see a 23-21 or 27-24 type game. it will be much tougher than going to Auburn IMO

dont get cocky. that guy had 6 TDs yesterday and was the Texas POY his senior year of HS. Also he's a RS freshman. He's damn good and will most likely be the top 2-3 QB in the SEC next year.

Anyone who thinks we walk into Kyle and blow them out is crazy

Love that everyone is looking foward to Bama now.

As if there's not games in between.

All that means is if LSU drops one, it'll be a much bigger meltdown if it happens.

We can adsorb ANY 1 loss as LONG as we beat Bama. This is of course to get the sec title. A 1 loss lsu needs one of FSU, Oregon, WVA, okla to lose a game.

The a&m qb runs around alot and if he cant run he panics. florida shut him down that second half and I expect that all game a friend of mine at a&m right now messaged me yesterday saying LSU is gonna kill us! usce is at home and i think shaw will be shut down and we wear them down in the second half. florida is a big one we just have to play our game and we will win. auburn enough said and miss state we get at home and they beat troy by 3 yesterday

USCe.

One week after a roadtrip to the Swamp.

Close enuf to Nov 3 that the hype / distraction of that game will be kicking in.

Spurrier could take USCe up a notch by winning at Tiger Stadium against this LSU team. This is not lost on him. Hell, he's probably already started a little bit of gameplanning.

This game scares me ... then again I get nervous against every SEC opponent (and ULM).
