I know that lots of y'all don't like Pat Forde but, FWIW, here's his take on the Tigers going into next season.

Like all such lists, this is all pure speculation, and one can find plenty of reasons to argue with his choices, but here it is.
1. Georgia
2. Michigan
3. LSU
4. Penn State
5. Washington
6. Ohio State
7. Alabama
8. USC
9. TCU
10. FSU
11. Notre Dame
12. Tennessee
13. Oregon
14. Clemson
15. Utah
16. North Carolina
17. Tulane
18. Kansas State
19. South Carolina
20. Oregon State
21. Texas
22. Troy
23. Wisconsin
24. UTSA
25. UCLA

Brian Kelly’s opening act in Baton Rouge was impressive: a 10–4 record that included an SEC West championship after taking over a disorganized program. Quarterback Jayden Daniels (nearly 3,800 yards in total offense in 2022) has announced his intention to return. Top wideout Malik Nabers and promising freshman tight end Mason Taylor will be back to catch Daniels’s passes. Offensive tackles Will Campbell and Emery Jones Jr. are rising stars who started as freshmen. Havoc-raising linebacker Harold Perkins Jr. is a nice foundation to build around defensively. And a talented freshman class is incoming. LSU’s season opener against Florida State in Orlando is looming as a huge game.

I might be wrong about Pat.

3 Big 10 teams and a Pac 12 team over Bama after what we just witnessed in the bowl games, that's a stretch.

I don't buy Washington and Penn St (prove it)
Alabama is too low, as is OSU. Both get the benefit of the doubt as top 5 teams. TCU is too high. They had a magical year where tight games went their way behind a veteran QB. They won't sneak up on anyone next year and it was clear last night the talent gap is huge between the top SEC programs and them.
Michigan with Harbaugh earns the benefit of the doubt for winning the Big 10 back to back years. Without him is a completely different story.

He's always hated LSU, I think this is proof

That might be a tad ambitious.
