Simple fx just be in the top 4 to make the playoffs.......problem here is the love affair the media has with USC and the likes, the likes being anybody but the SEC.

That's the biggest problem, since its quite possible 3teams can be from the SEC in the end its a matter of will the human polls let that happen?

This poll makes no sense..


Main Reason is the amount of teams each play in the top 25:

LSU = 6
Bama = 3
TAMU = 3

I thought BAMA schedule was weak until I looked at TAMU!

Schedule

They were thinking aTm would be getting the treatment mizzou is getting in the SEC they didn't factor in the fact that they would be getting better recruits from Texas and they've stole a couple from Louisiana since they were moving to the SEC. This will hurt okla and Texas recruiting more

Seems about right, with all the players leaving and the track record on offense the last few years. I would put LSU around 14 though.

Makes complete sense to me. LSU under achieved this year and they fully expect that to continue given the fact that our coach seems to think things are just fine regarding offensive production. We all know what was produced this year won't cut it. I'd say we lose 4 games next year. We may be thrilled with a top 15 finish by the time its all said and done.

Until JFF & Saban leave, we are Arky circa Bobby Petrino in the SECW.


Especially the Saban part. Les Miles fans = "OK with mediocrity"

17 is accurate or maybe a little generous with what was shown in the post season and with all the talented and proven players going to the NFL.

As we know the Tigers seem to play better when they're under the radar.

So I remain hopeful for a decent season next year as LSU is definitely under the radar.

Just win Tigers!

Who gives a damn about a preseason poll?


Or any poll before October.

These polls are absolutely worthless.

Year 2 in the SEC will be tougher for aTm. Lets see how they wear the #1 curse as they are staring down the barrel at a loss to Bama and they have to travel to LSU. The rest of their schedule is crap. LSU doesn't merit a higher ranking. I am fine with the team walking their way up the poll.

Looks right to me. We lose a ton of players and have one of the most difficult schedules in the country. I see a 3 or 4 loss season.
