Serious question.

Teams that we have to play later will improve as the season progresses, but so will we. And we have enough talent to win it all this season.

Jayden was amazing last Saturday. I don't think we need him to play at THAT level but we are gonna need him to play at a very high level going forward.

Nothing but optimism.

It’s definitely possible. There isn’t a team left on the schedule LSU can’t beat

It is the goal. It’s the goal every year. Is it a realistic goal? Borderline. We’re one of the 8ish teams that have a chance at it but depth is going to be a problem for us.


I’m still not sold on our secondary or defense as a whole and one good game against a piss poor offense isn’t going to change that for me.

String together a few showings like that and I’ll be in the wagon. Right now I’m gonna wait and see.

I do think we’re the best team in the west and we should go to Atlanta.

There’s a difference between “can” and “will”

I don't think you can gauge where we are right now after beating down a team that's in shambles with s de facto lame duck coach. We'll inow after the next 3 weeks

They’ve lost the ability to drop a game they shouldn’t so its very low probability

Can we get to mid season with the team looking like something before we fire the coach or look for national championships. Serious answer.

Everything goes through Atlanta.

I’d say the odds of us getting through Ole Miss, Florida, Bama, A&M, and then Georgia in Atlanta is probably pretty slim. The depth just isn’t there

I think Florida and Auburn are going to be way tougher games than anyone anticipates

its fun to think about as fans, but hopefully the team and staff are just taking it one at a time.

LSU has to develop some consistency. They were all over the place last year and again in 3 games this year. At their best, yes, it's possible, but they'll have to be consistently great from here on out since they've used their mulligan.

I think our biggest problem may actually come in the playoffs from non-SEC teams

Depends on JD and how he plays. JD vs Miss State and we can beat anyone in the country. JD vs FSU and we can’t beat FSU.

well yeah I didn’t say LSU would win the natty just that they could. It’s a realistic goal to have

Will they? Probably not but they have the potential

My how attitudes change from after the FSU game.
It was nothing but skyfalling post bashing Kelly, House, Denbrock,JD5.

Pump the brakes

Let’s beat Arky first.

Ole Miss will treat the LSU game like their Super Bowl.

Bama will be way up for a payback win. Seriously doubt we have a chance in that one.

Beating Georgia in Atlanta would probably have to happen too, and that is VERY unlikely.

IF all of these games ARE wins, there is no doubt in my mind we would wreck shite in the playoffs and win the Natty.
