Disagree with him on the most overrated team of course but he does have a point with regards to Bama - they are built to stop the power run game. We will have to throw - especially on 1st down to get out of there with a win. We need our own Phyllis to call him out.

Well they are extremely flawed. How can you watch us play and not think so?


And it isnt even the offense I'm talking about. Honestly that's the one area that i have no worries about.

Honestly, OSU and FSU are.

LSU has a gauntlet upcoming and we'll just have to see how it plays out.

I can respect his opinion. I have us rated so high on potential. Right now...we don't look top 5.

I know LSU hasn't played a great team yet

But shite, they look less overrated than Ohio St/Mich St/Clemson

We have the best running back in college and perhaps best to ever play the game. Make them stop him before we get pass happy.

I can understand saying we arent the MOST overrated. But they do look pretty darn overrated at this point.

I mean...we could be

I don't think we are, but we haven't exactly played any legit teams yet.

But OSU, Mich ST., Baylor, etc all could also be "the move overrated team in the country"

none of this matters as it will work itself out if LSU keeps winning

I guess thats why he is on Fox, just a bunch of stupid bull shite from wanna be analysts. They talked about last year, this isn't last year.. Not anywhere near last year, its a whole different year.

"I went back and checked from the start of LAST YEAR, versus power 5 opponents that run the pro style offense, they give up about 270 yards per game"

I mean last year we went into overtime because we basically gave up the game in the final seconds of regulation, and we had Jennings and Fournette wasn't exactly clicking like he is this year. Now we have Brandon Harris, a run game that blows our run game out from last year, and improved wide receiver play. We also do have one of the best defenses in the SEC, i don't see how LSU has "NO SHOT" at beating Bama when we almost did it last year.

Guess what? We are built to run it. And we happen to have the best run blocking offensive line and the best tail back in the country.

That's my problem, and I've been reluctant to pencil us in as a top 5 teams with peveto and dropped passes.


Listening to them you would think there are 5-6 teams playing a really high level of football right now, but I've never been so underwhelmed at how everyone has looked so far. If anything we suck less than the vast majority of the country.

Name a team this year that looks completely unstoppable this year. There aren't any IMO.
