Why are all of our fans so confident against Oregon?

I have to admit, I don't read this board as much as I used to. But just at a glance it seems like a lot of people think we're going to walk over them.
We struggled with West Virginia at home last year. Oregon has a lot more talent on offense than WV did.
If our offense doesn't play well we're in trouble. I'm confident we'll win but a lot of people are acting like this is going to be easy. If Oregon has some success on offense and can sustain drives they could very well wear out our D-line in the second half.

It will be close, one way or another imo

It's game week and hope springs eternal.
Plus, our defense didn't really struggle against WV, our offense did. While we don't have anything to back it up with but coach speak, most believe our offense will be better.

Because a large majority of LSU fans truly believe the only real football being played is in the SEC.
They fail to realize that LSU has always had struggles containing mobile QBs.

I don't think we'll "walk all over them", but damn, we've got an immense amount of talent, great coaching, and a real ability to perform at the team's peak when given time to prepare.

It's called team spirit.

I love having a Normal person at QB.

Because we're better.

This years offense is going to be light years better than last years offense, and the D will be just as good overall. It is easy math.

Our DL will man handle their OL. Our offense wont have to play their best to win.

How do we know this?

Just the cycle our internet fans are in right now.
Check back next Monday if we lose or look ugly winning. It will be chicken little central around here.

Name another defensive end that anchored
The 4x100 relay in high school.
Our whole defense is like that.
It will not be close.

Why shouldn't we be confident? Should we all sit around saying "ohhh, gosh, I don't know about this game, I hope we're competitive"? It's game week, and we know if the boys play up to their potential, we can beat anybody, anywhere, anytime.

I'm not. I think LSU drops this game. Not because of all the distractions, but because Chavis is terrible vs. Spread offenses. I dont think the defense is going to have enough stops. Someone quote me. Here's the obligatory "I hope I'm wrong" quote.
We'll see what happens.

I have no idea. We were picked so high, because we were only losing toliver, Ridley, barksdale.
Now we are losing Ridley, dwor, Shepard, toliver, barksdale, and our starting qb. People say losing JJ is no big deal but I disagree. The offense has been tailored to him, and countless hours during spring, summer and fall have been devoted to him. Now we will have a different very vanilla offense. Basically the same plan with all of JJ's plays taken out
