14-18 is fair, IMO. Very surprised that the media's boy is at 25.

If LSU doesn't drop 63 on Grambling this coming week, I'll be disappointed.

I’m not sure how good they actually but their QB and their #1 WR originally from the boot and transferred from Michigan State are both legit! Both have AA ability and the WR is good enough to win the Biletnikoff imo. I agree with the folks on here that LSU will have to start offering competitive deal and win these bidding wars. Let’s go for it and see what shakes out after 3 or 4 years. Time for the big boys to pony up! At LSU that should win us a national title and would be worth it imo.

@BayouBengal99, the kid from here was offered and he saw our WR room full of media hyped players and wanted to go somewhere he could play right away.

He could easily be WR1 here.

That’s what I was thinking. I thought we would drop to the twenties after giving up 31 in the second half and scoring a junk time 7.

We have to beat someone before we'll get any credit.

A lot of those teams suck too. Polls are useless this early and should be started later in the season. All the polls do right now is give the blue bloods a shoe in to the playoffs if they do just enough.

Well, we gotta run the table now...and don't think that we can't.

Should have fallen out of the top 25 after that dismal performance.

Definitely out of the top 20. Maybe make it in the top 25 though. FSU was ranked 8 so that’s a factor.
