Is every game a tossup at this point?

I think the only sure W I see is going to be Kentucky and that should probably be a contested game.
Kentucky's offense should give our D some fits but eventually we'll have to be able to stop one of these spread type offenses because we keep seeing them.
Ole Miss - They'll be favored but it's at home and we should improve by then
TAMU - They should be favored but only because it's a home game. I can't imagine the spread being more than 5 on this one.
Bama - This just isn't the same Bama team that we've seen over the last 5 years. They're vulnerable and their offense can be shut down. If our power running game continues to improve this should be a close game.
Arkansas - This one seems to have the potential to be a tossup game no matter what.

Pretty much all are toss-ups. Kentucky is no gimme game.

Ole Miss and Bama will be heavy favorites....as they should be.

I agree
I suppose it's just the one that sticks out as me as the most likely that we'll win
Kentucky isn't who they used to be and they'll give us a great game win or lose

Yes, all are toss ups. Kentucky's only loss came in OT at Florida. They are decent this season and playing for bowl eligibility also.

I'd like to think so.
Kentucky: should win this game with a strong dose of Fournette.
Ole Miss: home game. Upset us last year. Riding high. QB is Bo Wallace. We have a shot. But we will need fair qb play.
Bama: no doubt bama is down this year as well. Just not as down as us. However, it's a home game against our biggest foe over the last 7 years.
ARky: by this time our offense should have a bit more experience. Offensive line has played better the last two games but we must eliminate penalties or mistakes that make a 2nd and 2 a 2nd and 12 or a 3rd and long.
Texas AM: it's not gonna be the usual thanksgiving weekend sleepwalk as we know TAM is a better opponent.

depends on which LSU teams shows up....
we can potentially make them all a win
or make them all a loss
I see Ole Miss and A&M as the hardest but I will go back to my above statement ...even KY is not a easy game
they are 5 - 1 and should be 6-0 had it not been for bad refs

We are improving at OL. People that think we should always be dominant, with all the youth are just ignorant. Instant and immediate gratification isn't real life. Those too young to remember what our program was like in the early '90's have no idea WTF they're taking about.

The Oline is NOT young, with decent coaching they should have been dominant from the start

I think we match up pretty well with Bama
They have great talent but nothing about their offense really scares me. Cooper and Yeldin are both very dangerous but I think they can be contained.

I don't care how good your offensive line is supposed to be, when you struggle to pass it's going to take some time to adjust to 8 and 9 men fronts.

I don't see us coming close to Ole Miss if we can't move the ball, they are just good all around with a stout D.
Alabama has a solid D, similar to Ole Miss, it will be hard, but its a game I feel everyone will wake up for but who knows crazy things happen.
Texas A&M is a bad matchup, simply because our D just hasn't proven they can make stops, I don't see us being able to catch up to them.
Kentucky will be a very good game, they have a pulse on offense unlike Florida. They are improving each week and they are coached well. This will be far from an easy win.
Arkansas has shown they are a solid team, I wouldn't take much into their record. Im curious how we will do against the run with their experienced qb. Its away game....
Yes everything is a toss up. TBH the entire season really depends on the Kentucky game. A loss will down spiral this team, a win will give us momentum at least. It all depends

Bigger question. Who are you pulling for LSU-TAMU?
Posted on 10/13/14 at 1:17 pm to oldschoolqb
LSU I want us to win out, Im just being realistic. Any team with a pulse on offense will be difficult for us. It really is all on Les and the staff, they can make this team or break it.

Kentucky is a tossup...the rest are losses.
