Questions at QB. New OC. RB experience. Defense very strong. Realistically 9-3. Great season 10-2. Just to many questions unanswered on offense.

Schedule alone has 4 losses already on it. 9-3 would be a hell of a season. Realistically 7-5.

predictions mean nothing, it's just someone's opinion about something. predict the winning lottery numbers then you will have my attention.

But the way I see it is the other teams have an offensive coach that people find agreeable.

Then the SEC West must be real strong, cz LSU is a marquiee opponent, and other teams player can’t just run by or push over LSU guys. They are a physical match for every team in the country.... all of their tough games will be interesting. So if the worst team in the SEC West has arguably the best defense and most NFL talent... those other teams must have a ton going for them.

Hell, we are the LSU TIGERS. We will probably only lose one or two games this year. Even those games we probably could have won if the refs made better calls.

Last year they predicted LSU to finish 3rd in the West,and they were spot on. So I guess they have seen enough to drop us down to 5th in the West.
user avatar
Great. 4th and Coach O has exceeeded expectations of even the experts. Will be shocked if we are not 3rd or higher.

LSU is going to shake up the world and shock a lot of people. The Tigers are going to finish 11-1 and the lost will not be to Alabama but to Florida or Georgia. LSU will win the SEC West and get revenge against the team that beat them and win the SEC Championship Game. LSU will be 1 of 4 teams participating in the College Football Playoffs, now all this is predicated on QB Joe Burrow being the type of QB that win games not just manage them with our defense, O-Line, RB's and WR corp those bold predictions is not out of this world. GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!!!!!!PURPLEREIGN?????????

They didn’t pick us to finish In that spot because of a lack of player talent. Like it or not that was a direct shot at the HC.

Or maybe the lack of experience in key spots coupled with the strength of schedule this year possibly? You dolt.
