Here is what they had to say:

LSU: 9

Aschoff: Spring games don't mean much in the grand scheme of things, but in the weather-shortened game that LSU had, the offense didn't look very good at all.

There are still too many question marks -- particularly offensively -- at this moment in time for me to go over here. I think this is probably a nine-win team, but it’s no fun taking a push, so...

LSU finished 8-4 (5-3 SEC) last season. New head coach Ed Orgeron took over the team after the Tigers started 2-2 (1-1 SEC).
