re: Regardless of loss I still find some hope for the season

If you throw out the opinions about how bad LSU sucks and how we're going to go 6-6 and Miles will be fired mid-season, we're still pretty fine.

I mean, look at some of the teams ranked in and around the top 10... Georgia, Washington, Texas, Michigan State, Louisville... All of these teams are taking multiple losses.

Now sure, polls don't matter at this point. But to pretend that the season is over is clearly silly. I had a feeling when this poll came out it might calm some people down. If LSU wins the next two weeks, they'll probably be right around #15 heading into the Auburn game.

Our offense doesn't look improved. Yes, it's been one game, so you can't judge everything on that. However, it doesn't seem like it'll be much different. But we've won a lot of games at LSU with bad/mediocre offense and good/great defense. I still feel like we can do that.

I don't think it's unrealistic to say we'll be 6-2 heading into the Alabama game, still controlling our own destiny in the West.
