What are the expectations of the LSU fan base going into the season? Would you guys be completely upset with a 10 win season?

As a UF fan, and I think most of the nation agrees with us....we kept expecting an offensive performance from LSU like they showed on 1/9 all year. Each week, I would watch the games and just kept waiting on them to lay an egg with their qb play and offensive game planning. I think thats why they were 13-0 against the spread before the title game.

Obviously they will have more talent at the QB position than last year. Do you guys expect to be 13-0 and playing for the national title again?

I think 8 wins will satisfy most of our fan base.

Our non-conference schedule is a joke, I tend to worry about the Alabama, Florida and South Carolina games... Then of course the SEC Championship. Do I expect to go 13-0? No. Just because there is no way to tell how Mett will do, but the defense will be strong and so will the run game

We're gonna be preason top 3 in every major poll. Most LSU fans believe our season will boil down to our game with Bam on 11/3. So yes...a 10-2 regular season would be a disappointment to most IMO.

I have higher expectations for this team than the 2011 team.

Interesting. I think that's a little ridiculous to be disappointed in a 10-2 season in the SEC.

Especially considering you guys will be starting a QB will hardly any game day experience. Not saying that he isn't talented....just that nobody really knows and he has never been tested in a game.

I expect LSU to take a step back this year but still be in the hunt. I can see them dropping a game to someone like USC, UF, or A&M and then losing to Bama. 10-2 is about what i'd expect out of them.

9-3 is a let down.
11-1 is a really good year.
12-0 I will be more shocked at this than if UF loses 8 games.

After last year, I have to agree. It may be irrational but it is the truth.

It felt like the team went all that way with nothing to show for it, it's time to bring home a crystal ball.

This team should be better than last year. There are very few spots on the team where we are weaker and most we are arguably stronger. 10-2 would be under performing for this team.

I haven't paid much attention to LSU football since january. Didn't know what hype they had coming into the game. You would've thought 1/9 would have humbled some of the fan base a bit.

10-2 in the SEC West is a hell of a season. Especially when you are starting a new QB. Mett may be ridiculous and you guys roll to a 14-0 season....

Yep.

The rant would be pretty boring if this happened.
