you can't just close your eyes, click your heels, and say we'll be competing for a National Championship. You've got to look at this realistically.

We lost half our D. We had an underwhelming O last year, but have a new OC. I hope that helps, but it's a big unknown. How will Mett progress?

But the big factor is our schedule. It's brutal. Four lose-able games and three others (TCU, Ole Miss, Aky) that will be tough.

I think it's overly optimistic to think we'll be in the NC hunt this year. More likely, we'll go 9-3.

Sweet so what did you have us down for in 2011? After JJ got popped?

You can't just close your eyes and say this team with lose 3 either Nancy

Well although we lost some talent on defense...

-We can still be BETTER on defense than last year.

-Year of development for Mett and Receivers plus Leslie and Dural

-O-line is returning with more experience and talent and cohesiveness is a big plus (prlly the best line in the SEC)

-Finally, a legitimate O.C. and Stud back to doing what he does best

-The schedule is tough, but it's not any tougher than 2011. In fact, I think it's not as tough as 2011. If you look at it, although we have those four tough games (Bama, Georgia, Florida, TAMU) they couldnt have aligned themselves any better when considering the flow of the schedule.

-Starting with TCU out of the gate just like 2011 with Oregon, so we can propel ourselves into the season instead of crawl

-NO ONE thinks LSU will be any good this year. Perfect.


We have every shot to go undefeated and I think expectations for this team for every fan should be one loss just because it's so hard to go undefeated, but I sincerely believe we can go undefeated.
