Bowl results don't change the pre season perception much in my opinion
You guys don't read up much outside of SEC stuff do you? The perception is Clemson is a big boy who's going to win the ACC after beating LSU(a big bad SEC team).
EVERY LSU article references the loss from last year. Couple that with the losses to the NFL and people think we are in decline or 6th in the SEC pecking order. Trust me, I read A LOT of CFB stuff in general and that loss to Clemson has left a blemish on our national perception.
If we had won that game finishing 11-2, we'd be ranked right behind Bama in the west and ahead of USCe and UF in the conference.

I am an SC fan, but I watched almost all of LSU's games last season. The Tigers were a very talented bunch that could have beaten anybody on their day. It's extremely difficult for a CF team to play at "elite levels" in every game of the season, though we as fans expect it, whether it is a critical conference game against a ranked powerhouse or a not-so-prestigious bowl game against an ACC team. I expect LSU to win at least 9 games this season, good shout for 10 or 11 if fortune smiles on you.
"National Perception" relies on people who remember LSU won titles a few years back, and then went 0-2 in the last two big post-season finales. Those people don't watch week in, week out though, so take it with a grain of salt.
Tl;Dr: LSU's really good, and will be this season. National perception's based on casual fans/observers and ain't nobody got time for that.
