Yes, we believe that LSU will win...

But we really shouldn't expect many outsiders to have the same faith we all have in our Tigers. We barely score enough points to beat ATM and Auburn. Two teams that haven't shown any kind of defensive ability all year. We have to believe in our defense that held ATM to 12 points for most of the game and gave them an extra TD due to some stupid penalties on their last drive. This same ATM team that is 3rd nationally in scoring offense with 46 ppg. The same team that put 60+ points up on Auburn. We are better than the final results of those two games. We just haven't translated it to points on the board. Will our offense finally do something? I don't know, but I believe that Chavis will come up with a plan to have our defense put the offense I position to win. Will our special teams step-up and play like they are capable? We haven't punted, kicked FGs, returned punts, or even covered like kicks like we are capable. But we do have that capability.
Will all 3 phases of our team show up finally? I just find it hard to believe that we will not put it all come together more than once (Washington anybody?) in 9 games.

Due to unforeseen loses of players, I still believe we have the components to play like the team that started the season #1. As far as I'm concerned, who cares what the national people think. I believe. Geaux Tigers!!!!
