LSU has won at least 10 games in each of the last four years, but that streak could be in jeopardy in 2014. The Tigers return 12 starters from last year’s 10-3 team and have one of the top offensive lines in the SEC. However, quarterback play is a concern with the departure of Zach Mettenberger, while receivers Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry will be playing on Sundays next year. The defense should be solid, but question marks exist at defensive tackle and at linebacker. Additionally, the brutal SEC West doesn’t provide for many breaks on the schedule in 2014.

you dont rank someone lower because their schedule is hard. that makes no fricking sense! you think they are going to have a tough schedule so you rank them even lower so its harder? wtf does that have to do with how good your team is?

These usually suck, but this could very well be the worst I have ever seen.

On any given Saturday LSU could be the 19th best team in the country. ie they were the 19th best team in the country on the Ole Miss Saturday last year. So there is no problem with LSU's ranking.

Under the radar is a good thing.
LSU has the league's best offensive line and the best pure runner in Fournette.

wow, that list is terrible. Wisconsin has way more problems than we do. While all we have to replace is two mediocre DTs and a decent safety, they have to replace 9 players on defense. We replace our top 3 pass catchers with top talent while they replace their top four pass catchers, with no one worth mentioning.

Michigan State not in the top 5 and Stanford not in the top ten is ridiculous.

Ole Miss and Texas ahead of us is just the dumbest shite I see on there.

To much question about our QB situation but I think we could run the ball 100% of the time and win the majority of our schedule.
