Bring it on! I love this.

In week 1, 20 out of 24 reporters picked Miami to win.

They're favored by 10 at home, which is a tough stadium to win in as a road team. And they're a top 10 team.

I think I would pick them to win as well.

why does anyone care what some pundit predicts? Ignore them all.

just give the front page a quick scan next time before starting a thread. You can do this, I have faith in you to be a better poster!

Did the same against Miami. How’d that work out for them?

I think its ridiculous that they think TCU has a better chance at beating Ohio State than LSU does of beating Auburn.

They did the same against Miami. That’s because they read the rant before making their predictions and see how ephen horrible we are. Hard to blame them.

I personally think we have a pretty good chance of winning, but I usually try to ignore the Rant and Chicken’s negatigers, so I am more optimistic than most.

Why do you love this?

Wouldn't you feel better about everyone picking us, then we actually go out and do what they expect us to do vs a top opponent? Expectations are a privilege.

Sick of this "we're going to shock the world" mentality.

Well there is nothing at all that would make someone pick LSU. It’s hard to win there. They have a better team. We have shown nothing on offense to make people think we can expose their defense. Any thought of us winning is just blind optimism. Sure it can happen but LSU hasn’t shown anyone yet how it’s possible. Miami wasn’t a great team. Good but not great. So why would they pick us?

Well I guess that settles it! Tell O no reason to bring the team to Auburn.

Whether LSU wins or not, I like that everyone is picking Auburn and even that LSU obviously is not overconfident on offense going into the game and was panned by everyone this week.

Auburn has the revenge factor, but LSU will have a ton of motivation too now and want to prove that their ability to put up points against Miami wasn't a fluke. Also, I keep hearing about Auburn's D and they are damn tough, but LSU's D is stout too.
