According to ESPN 8 wins

Personally, I predict 9 but several will be very, very ugly wins.

Alabama 9.9
Auburn 9.2
Georgia 9.1
South Carolina 8.9
Mississippi State 8.5
Texas A&M 8.3
LSU 8
Ole Miss 7.7
Florida 7.6
Missouri 7
Kentucky 5.5
Tennessee 5.4
Vanderbilt 4.9
Arkansas 4.9

I've already mentioned this, but LSU fans think that ESPN and the media "hates" and disrespects our team, yet most of our own fans predict us to lose 2-3 games this year (which is slowly turning into a trend).

Tell me - does Alabama have superior talent to LSU? If not, then why should our expectations be any lower, especially considering that both teams are in almost identical situations going into this season?

There are NO ugly wins.
There are NO pretty losses.

For me, 8 wins is a worst case scenario. 11 wins would be a best case scenario. Average 9 or 10 would be realistic. I've had to accept replacing Hill, Landry, Beckham, Mettenberger is just too much to overcome even with Fournette, Dupree, Quinn, etc. This is going to be a very difficult season to predict simply because to match the offensive numbers from last year would be incredible. That's unless Jennings, Harris (or both) exceed expectations. The SEC West is the toughest division in all of College Football. I have to say MSU and TAM ranked ahead of us is a little painful to look at.

MSU has some expectations this year. I am interested to see how they handle it.

Teams all around the league are going through QB position changes and the schedule is still favorable for LSU.. And LSU brings back an excellent o-line and an incredibly talented defense with experience behind them..

As someone else stated, no worse than 3rd in the west.. and very well can and should win the west as a whole this season.

I know everyone is going to be upset about such predictions but for f's sake, there is a damn good chance we're going to be starting a true freshman at QB in the SEC.

Has this worked out on occasion? Yeah. But shite man, you certainly can't rely on it.

The Moo State beat down we put on them early in the season should get some attention but the media will just shake it off as them being overrated

Why do you say that?

I know we're young and all on O, but this offense will never be as ugly as what we all remember as long as Cam Cameron is on the staff.

There has only been 1 season in the past 11 years where we've won fewer than 9 games; none in the past five years. And we've won 10 or more each of the past four seasons. There is no reason whatsoever to think we would only win 8 games this season - ridiculous.
