re: What are realistic expectations for LSU?

But we went into mid October controlling our own destiny. Why does that not count? And doesn't every team start the season in the hunt?? When are you not in the hunt?

Mid October doesn't count for LSU. The team itself has higher expectations

No realistically about 12-15 teams nationally can say they are in the hunt, with a possible outlier occasionally ( see Baylor unless they falter).

Your not in the hunt when your chances on winning 1. A SEC championship depends on multiple losses and 2. A national championship in pretty much every year with 2 losses
