Amazing, I did not remember the 2007 passing offense but the fact that we never had less than 19 attempts in a game is mind-blowing. And I think both the Miss State and S.Carolina game were rain games.

We were slinging it around all over the field.

First year under Crowton, Miles wasn't meddling in the offense. It was a pretty dynamic offense that as tough to defend. Flynn wasn't anything special but we put him in the right spots. Then 2008 happened and Miles basically neutered Crowton from that point.

Flynn averaged 30 passes per game which is the same that DE16 threw against MSU.

Flynn's average rating for the season was 125.8 (2007) which is lower than DE's rating against MSU (134.5). If DE16's MSU game is his average game, that is may be good enough for a respectable season with 3 more close losses.

LSU will play tougher teams than MSU but I see DE16 and the team as a whole improving as the schedule gets tougher.

MY PREDICTION FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE THE SEASON

Right now, I predict a 9-3 season. I see LSU losing to Alabama and one of OM, Ark, aTm. That will be 6-2 in the SEC (3 way tie 2nd place in SEC West).

LSU and Miles will go their separate ways because it is time. Miles has run his course. I think he will "resign" to save face. He will have a respectable exit and a buyout will be negotiated. It's time for both parties to move on for the common good. I think even can see that now which is why he seems a little depressed and is not himself.

Job is offered to Herman but he goes to Texas (Strong Fired). Jimbo is content and remains at FSU.

The OSU head coach pipeline continues and Mike Gundy becomes LSU's next coach. Gundy keeps defensive staff in place, brings with him an exciting new but balanced offence. Aranda has defense top 10 nationally. LSU wins SEC in 2018 and in CFB playoff.
