Its frustrating to lose. Its even more frustrating to lose to Alabama. Its even more frustrating to lose to Alabama when you should have won. We were one play away from winning.

That being said, this team is ridiculously young and yet we are one of the best teams in the country. We have one of the most unbalanced offenses in the country and yet we are one of the best teams in the country.

Next year this team will be even better on defense, and if Kwon and Danielle stay then they will be unreal. Your talking about only losing 3 real contributors in Rasco, Martin, and assuming Mills leaves cause he is getting really great draft grades.

Next year on offense you are talking about returning essentially all of your receivers. Receivers that will be a year more experienced, and have a year under moffit to get bigger, faster, and stronger which will help them get off of press a ton. You are losing 2 great RBs but Leonard, Darrel Williams, and hopefully Guice/Brosette will not make the losses significant. You will return both QBs, and I think Harris will be much more poised and know the system enough to not only take the reigns but be exactly what we need next year. The offensive line will have some new faces, and we need 1 or 2 of the underclassmen to stay. Hopefully seeing how collins has transformed into a better draft prospect can sway them. The talent is already there on offense, but they weren't ready at the beginning of the season. Next year they will be.

There is plenty of room on board the 2015 LSU National Championship run bus. Hop on while tickets are cheap, they won't be for very long.

Um, we are about to lose all but one starter on OL, both DEs and our best LB. DBs we can replace.

In a perfect world, your assumption would likely be exactly what would happen. But in Bizarro World, CLM may likely remain stuck to AJ and let even a dramatically improved Harris ride the bench another year or two - just based on what he's shown this year and previous years with JJ/JL/Mett.

Sunshine Pumping at its finest.

Nothing matters unless we have a QB who can throw the ball and WRs who can catch.

Doubt it.
I think Kwon and Danielle might stay as well. Don't buy a ticket if you don't want one

Kwon is gone man, sorry.

Poor decision on his part because he's a tweener size wise.

That's why I haven't seen him projected that high. Incredible college player, Idk if it will translate. Hopefully he takes the extra year

I could see Kwon staying. He's undersized for an NFL LB so I don't know what his draft grades will be.

I'm worried about Danielle though. He's improved a lot this year and you know NFL scouts will be drooling over his athleticism.

He is gone. And I'm not down on the kids for going, the way new contracts are structured there is no reason to stay.

What's the word on Robinson? Hope he gets his act together, hate seeing talent like his squandered.

You'll get some flack for posting this after a loss, but I agree. Next year should be fun.

Not much, but its disappointing. He and Tre White's potential together is ridiculous but Robinson needs to get his act together

If we still had Mett, we're a playoff team loaded with Freshmen.

Future is bright, just need Harris to learn the system.

You don't realize how fricked our Oline is going to be next year??

i don't care who will be starting at QB (yes i fricking do, obviously HARRIS), we are going to have to replace our 3 year starting franchise LT Collins, 2 year starting LG Alexander, and 2 year starting RT Hawkins.

we lose E. Washington and Hoko. our Oline will be so new next year, with an inexperienced QB... i don't know how you feel excited

Now more than ever a game changing QB in college football makes all the difference in the world

Cam newton
Winston

Hell manziel won 5-6 games by himself on a very average team

I don't see that kind of QB on our roster
