No. It's ESPN. Clicks is all they care about. I've always said that. No different here. And no different for most "news" sites.

8-4 possibly 9-3! We loose to all the A's! No QB! Hope I am wrong though!

Fix QB problem = NC run
Miles needs to get out of his own way as well.
If the stars align, its possible.

Hey if we can play for a natty every 4 years I can live with that. Here's to this season keeping that streak alive?

People can say what they want, but having very little experience at nearly every spot (minus secondary/OL) was a detriment to the team. Add in that the OL was working with a new scheme, and you had a complete mess.
After losing a ridiculous amount of talent over the past few years, we weren't able to maintain our consistent effort. In 2013 draft, we lost our top 5 DL (6 of our top 10 total), our starting MLB who was 3rd in the league in tackles (16th in country), a 1st round safety, and one of our starting corners. Defense fell off the next year.
Same thing in 2014 draft. Lost our starting QB, top 3 WRs, starting RB (2 of the top 3), starting LG, and starting FB. Adding in learning a new OL scheme and with barely and experience anywhere else, last year was bound to happen, and we were still very close to another 10 win season.
IMO, at worst we go 9-3 and I say 9-3 because I am accounting for somebody/s to have a very bad day whether it's QB, or defense, or both (see Ole Miss 2013 for reference).

Nah, that's a setup so they can criticize us later. ESPN still hates LSU.

Same reason we were significantly worse last year. Expierence.
No, not experience. We were worse last year because of horrific QB play and a predictable offense.

spot on.
This sums it up perfectly. Our current situation AND the Les Miles era

Even if we have solid qb play just look at the offensive system ...we will still be in close games against inferior better coached teams and probably drop 2 or 3

Miles quit and we got a QB?
Posted on 6/23/15 at 10:01 pm to 337Tiger19
Of course LSU could be I mean Harris is going to be the qb

Well....we do go to a title game every 4 years and this year is the 4th year since our last, so....

Our Running game will be dominant...it gives us a chance to absolutely war all day in any game where teams lacking real depth on D will be beat into inevitable submission.
Our Passing game will be required for the annual can we sling it games like Bama and anyone else possessing a formidable D like the Florida's of the world that have the personnel on hand to force us into the air to move the chains.
Our Defense was pretty decent last year and will only be served by an additional year of seasoning...our only real loss was Kwon from a year ago. I expect them to be a top 10 defense.
I would put us in the conversation for top 12-15 teams with legitimate NCCG aspirations given the proper team development and breaks during the course of the season.
I understand the 4 year cycle reasoning however I feel if anything our trajectory was changed after 1/9. I feel we are set up for a really good season this year...sort of like a build campaign where we are setting the stars up for 2016.

Does this team rival 2011?

Do you realize how young we were last year? True freshmen and sophmores all over the field.

both starting DE's... but who's counting. O will earn his paycheck. Reasonable depth, little experience.
