Bleacher Report released their "College Football Preseason Top 25 at the Start of Fall Camp" this week and pegged LSU at No. 5. Here's what they said about the Tigers:
quote:

They could be fourth, and they might be fifth. Either way, the reigning national champions will probably start behind Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State in the poll. It's easy motivation for LSU to use.

Granted, that's a reasonable range on paper. LSU lost record-smashing quarterback Joe Burrow and 13 others who were selected in the 2020 NFL draft. To suggest they—and brilliant assistants Dave Aranda and Joe Brady—will be painlessly replaced is to undervalue what those players accomplished in Baton Rouge.

But it certainly helps to have All-American wideout Ja'Marr Chase and cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. to build around.

LSU will turn to Myles Brennan at quarterback and aim to prove a No. 4 or No. 5 preseason ranking wasn't high enough.
Top 10:
1. Ohio State
2. Clemson
3. Alabama
4. Georgia
5. LSU
6. Oklahoma
7. Florida
8. Penn State
9. Texas
10. Texas A&M

Didn't play OSU, PSU, or LSU (unless you count the spring game as a victory against a top 10 team) so the total is 7, which is absolutely absurd.

aTM schedule is shite. They will go 11-2 on a cupcake schedule and get raped by a decent team in a bowl game.

As an Ag I can tell you that NPComb is absolutely correct. Mond is still the qb.

UGA has always been overhyped. Aubie usually too. Both are close to the Media center of Atlanta and they benefit from it tremendously. The UGA recruiting is also overrated. Once again the Atlanta media can easily cover kids in the North Georgia area but know little or nothing about Louisiana or Texas kids. Overrated and overhyped every year by the same media outlets. Lol.

Out of the 9 other teams in the top 10, LSU played and beat 7 of them last year. That's fricking amazing.

Texas and Texas A&M should not be hyped like this until they actually do something ON THE FIELD to deserve it. To a lesser extent, same for Georgia. Personally, I think Florida wins the SEC East this season (assuming we have a season).

So LSU has 4 of their preseason Top 10 teams on the schedule

Wow, Tennessee is ranked in the preseason top 25 yet again. You’d think writers would wise up after a decade of disappointment.

Ohio State. Preparing for another disappointment in the playoffs

My top 5 would be

Ohio State
Clemson
LSU
Alabama
Florida
Imo these 5 teams are ahead of the rest. Myles B will be a top 3-4 QB in the SEC. I don’t think these people understand that even if MB throws for 1000 to 1500 less yards than Burrow we would still be in the 4K range with a more aggressive defense with more depth. We also added a couple of leaders in the off-season. One each on the OL and the front seven. STs will be very good again. If the defense can provide more sacks, scores and TOs then we won’t need as much offense to be just as dominant.
