Please list the areas you think LSU will be better in 2018 than they were in 2017. Position by position will suffice.


The entire front 7 on defense stands to improve as a unit

Offensive line should also be improved overall as a unit

WR will *likely be improved as a unit but jury is still out

We drop off at RB and CB

Improve at safety position

QB position is unknown at this point

Based on what? Losing 6 players off of the two deep?

Lacouture
Gilmore
Herron
Key
Alexander
Thompson

Based on what? The two best linemen declared for the draft.

So, not a given. Push.

So, a regression.

Agree

quote:

Agree


So, let's break it down:

QB - Push
RB - Worse
WR - Better
TE - Better
OL - Push
DL - Push
LB - Worse
CB - Worse
S - Better

The only way someone can say this team should be "better" is by blatantly ignoring the roster issues. Combine this with the fact that the schedule is much, much tougher in 2018 and you seriously think LSU is going to improve?

Having a Biletnikoff award candidate pretty much guarantees improvement to the WR corps.

Signing the #1 rated WR in the nation and another 5-star WR that a couple sites had rated higher than the #1 guy certainly won't hurt either.
