2017? The best would be win 10 games.

It would suck to win only 7 or less.

2018: I expect the JUCOs to fix the OL and LSU to compete for the playoffs

ETA: its sad this program has gone from fix and go to full on rebuilding


I expected LSU to be 8-4/9-3 this year. I posted time and time again on the reasons why. OL was mediocre and had no depth, DL had no experienced depth and our "best" returning player was Lacouture. WRs outside of Chark had little to no experience at all, and there is a huge drop off in talent after Guice at RB. The only things I was confident about were Guice, Chark, Davis, and the LB spot.

My guess is that LSU will improve significantly on defense by the Bama game, and if Ed 0 has any kind of sense, he'd start Brennan after our next loss (which should be coming in a couple weeks).

This could be like 2014 when the OL took half the year to learn the scheme.

2018 will have the defense back to form and the OL will have some experience. Problem will still be on offense though.
