I mean the hype surrounding this team with the returning starters and a talent new DC is much deserved. It will probably be one of the best to take the field in the Miles era. Do we start the season as concensus #1 across all major polls?

I actually hope not. Dont need the early season pressure and prefer to let others have the spotlight. Just need to hang around top 5 til end of season.

Clemson has it on lock, then Bama, and LSU somewhere after that

Most definitely not. Bama and Clemson will both start higher. Wouldn't surprise me to see Michigan pretty high too

I'd say it's a pretty safe bet that LSU will not, nor should they be ranked at #1 to start the season. They are basically bringing back the same team that lost 3 games. They also have the same head coach and offensive cood who have yet to be able to develop a qb at LSU. Bringing in a new def cood who has to impliment a new system will also take time.

I sure as hell hope not. this team has a lot going for it but it needs to improve it's passing attack in the worse way and that is going to take several games where they consistently use it to score TD's. they don't need early complacency.

No. At a minimum, Bama and Clemson will be ranked higher.

Will start out 8 to 10.
Rise to 3-5
Will lose 3 or last 6 ( Miles rule)
Another Chicken bowl
Finish top 20
Sunshine pumpers cry to keep Miles because he is a great guy and winningest coach in LSU history.

Lsu isn't even going to open in the top 5, much less be ranked #1 to start the season. Probably be ranked at or just outside the top 10.

We may feel good about the talent we have returning but we still are going to have to prove to the rest of the country that we are going to have improved QB play, passing game, and offense scheme for the pollsters to take notice. If we do those things right from the start of the season we will jump teams quickly in the polls, other wise early on we will gradually be slotted up in the polls as teams ahead of us lose. Then we will drop off out the rankings as we lose multiple games late in the season.

Remember about a month ago when we almost replaced our coach. Been quite a turnaround over the last two months.
