Zero chance we end up with a top 5 preseason rating.

Top 15

there are 4 teams on LSU's schedule in the top 11 and also in top ten Georgia looks like the SEC east opponent of the SEC west winner.

as the ESPN disclaimer states, schedule is key.

There are no teams in the top 15 for Ohio State. Mich St is #16.

The other contenders face two or three real opponents.

LSU is preseason #3 in ESPN Stats and Info's formula, the Football Power Index. This is an "automated set of preseason ratings," not a power ranking voted on by staff.

LSU was 17 in the way-too-early top 25, and 2 of the 37 staff predictions for 2015 had LSU in the playoffs.

#12 offense??? A top ten running attack paired with a #110-120 passing attack...does not compute.

It's novelty.

Until the QB position produces, LSU wont come close to true top 10.
