Sign of how far we’ve slipped in reality or just a media over exaggeration of the O is a buffoon narrative?

Personally I think it’s the latter.

Especially with Burrows signing on but even before that I can’t imagine we will end up outside the top 25.

Never done this before but taking 1 month ban bets on LSU ending up as a top 25 team. Any takers?

Impossible to over exaggerate. The only folks who don’t see it are the “but he talk like us” people.

Go 7-5 and you prob aren’t ranked. I can see 5 or 6 losses on the schedule. Hopefully burrow will be legit. If so LSU could be a top 10 team.

Why would we be ranked? Bovada has our win total at 7. Are 7-5 teams usually ranked?

In case you didn't realize this, a lot people do not believe this LSU football team will be very good this year.

With Burrow Vegas has us at 7-5

Vegas isn’t biased and they keep the lights on for a reason.

This team may win 5 games they may win 10. We honestly don’t know what LSU is going to look like but we know if they aren’t great it’s going to be hard to get to 9 wins with that schedule.

We know we have a really good defense and the best DC in the country.

Be we don’t know jack shite about this offense.

Who’s the most productive returning offensive play? Stephen Sullivan? Let’s see what E’s offense looks after 15 years.

QB: None have ever started a collegiate game.

RB: CEH had 9 carries for 31 yards last year.

WR: The most talented in the country imho. Let’s see if having two WR coaches pay off.

TE: Moreau and Pettigrew provide a plethora of talent and you gotta think E’s going to feature them.

OL:
Sahdiq is solid at LT

Ed Ingram will be solid at one G, Damien Lewis looks to start at the other.

C I’m worried about. I’m hoping Cushenberry or Brumfield step into this role.

RT is a question mark for me. Austin Deculus and Badore Traroe Have All American Talent. Hopefully the Cregg hire pays off here.

Are these the only 2 options? How about an accurate media portrayal of the O is a buffoon narrative?

So the narrative the Orgeron fans are working on now.... LSU is not ranked so if Orgeron cracks the top 25 it should be considered "exceeding expectations" and therefore O is a grand success.

For those who fret over preseason rankings, just sit tight through week 3. Beat Miami in week one and we move into top 20. Then beat Auburn in week three and LSU moves into top ten.

If we lose those two games, they were right not to rank us.

They don’t deserve to be based upon the endless amount of questions surrounding the offense and coaching staff. FWIW I also think they will end up in the top 25 at the end of the year.
