Garbage predictions about LSU IMO. These predictions are as good as predicting the stock market by so called "expert". They go by past records and what happened last year which may or not have anything to do with what happens this year.

LSU: Ed Orgeron's honeymoon will last until the final whistle of the first game LSU loses that it's not supposed to. And that will happen at some point. We know Orgeron was a popular -- but second -- choice. There are significant quarterback issues in a league that is getting at that position. Arden Key is a monster but has undergone at least one surgery in the offseason. There's a hiccup for the Tigers out there somewhere. How ugly will it get when it happens? -- Dennis Dodd (and Tom Fornelli, Ben Kercheval, Barrett Sallee)


this thing is just littered with hot takes

Because they don't speak highly of our wonderful HC?

Anyone that gives a shite a out what these clowns say, good or bad, is an idiot. That said, I've read many of your thoughts on this board. You are right there with mo jeaux, Lsu groupee, Brazos, and several others. It's almost like you catch wood when anything g negative is mentioned about Lsu, and you swoop in and defend the bs. Could Lsu lose an unexpected game? Sure. Just like every team out there. If I were a person trying to get clicks, I'd write the same thing about every team and be right a lot.

If someone doesn't believe this is 100% accurate, then they don't follow LSU football very closely. There will be a meltdown on this board the first time LSU loses. Aranda and Canada are looked at as infallible, so the blame for the loss will have to be put on someone. That will be the guy many (most?) didn't want to get the HC job in the first place

So Tennessee and Texas am are both overrated and underrated.
Makes perfect sense.

They got you to click on the article. Sounds like their predictions did their job.

Picking LSU to finish 4th in the West....Barton Simmons and Barrett Sallee. Obviously they begrudge LSU and can't be objective. My suggestion is not to help them by clicking on their crap articles. Sallee has never said anything positive about LSU.

So many haters waiting for the wheels to fall off .. and when you can put a face to the name of the writers it makes it funnier and more pathetic. Oh Barrett Salee says ...it's kind of like what Don Lemon says or Miley Cyrus says...

The irony is that when Lsu is winning he will get zero credit...but all the blame if they lose.

Barrett was damn near a prophet last year. And I remember somebody predicting Miles wouldn't last the season as coach. We all scoffed. I'm not saying these guys are right; but the conference (outside of Alabama) is too competitive to think these predictions are out of the realm of possibility.

I'm excited to see what kind of team we have, but we have way to many unknowns to feel real confident that we are the 2nd best team in the SEC; which is basically where we sit in a few polls.

Popular? Really? I personally can't think of anyone that I know of that was on board with the hire.

There is no way - and I mean NO frickING WAY - LSU ends up behind Texas A&M or MSU in the West, unless our entire O-line gets hurt.

It's gonna be a dogfight between LSU, Alabama and Auburn. The LSU-Auburn game is gonna be huge for LSU.

I don't see a problem with this prediction. A matter of fact, I think they were nice to not mention the OLINE issues and the amount of inexperience on this roster.

You people really can't stand someone who doesn't preach sunshine & rainbows about a team that clearly has questionmakers at a number of positions on the roster.
