I tend to agree that the offense will be better. The serious concern is the defense and particularly the defensive ends. Quarterbacks will be better. The irrational exuberance says Brandon Harris will be all conference, rational expectations says better than 50% of his passes complete and some key plays with his legs. Irrational exuberance says the defensive ends will be as good as last years pair at stopping the run and better at sacking the quarterback. Rational expectation says we'll have problems setting the edge and maybe as good at getting to the quarterback.

No offense to the DE's that started last year, but that was some of our least productive DE's in a long time. Yes, Hunter was huge, but that didn't translate into sacks/pressure. I am being very rational, and I would be upset if we didn't get better production from our current DE's. Is there a chance they could be worse? Sure. But again, what we had wasn't great....and with LSU's talent and new blood in coaching with O.....I am expecting much better DE play. Our D should be nasty this year, if we can stay healthy at DT and MLB.
