I don't see why anyone is discounting the OP.

LSU has a long history under Miles of playing unexpectedly tight games with non-BCS opponents.

WKU is picked to win CUSA. They have an experienced QB and can score points. Though everyone is optimistic, how can anyone say that we know exactly what to expect from LSU's defense when they haven't played a single snap under Steele?

Also, util we see something on the field, I can't EXPECT LSU's offense to be anything more than it's usual mediocre self

Finally, the WKU game follows an SEC game (Florida) and is ahead of a bye week before LSU enters the toughest stretch of the season (@ Bama, Ark., @ OM, A&M). It certainly is not unreasonable to think that LSU could be looking past WKU at that point. Everybody else outside of the program certainly will.

FTR, I don't think LSU loses the game. But I also don't see them being the pushover that those who only view the world the P&G glasses think they will be.

Define "tight games".

Under Saban, we also needed a 4th qtr comeback against Troy and of course there was UAB. I don't recall anything unique about Miles' history against non-BCS teams, other than being undefeated.
