Will take miracle to beat UGA
Being banged up fr UGA could take its toll against MSU
Not beating Bama.
I don’t think they beat A & M.
Wins against Ark & - other.

i don't think it would take a miracle as the game is in TS. but LSU has gotta play a helluva lot better than they did on saturday. a lot of pressure because O is staring at a 4 game losing streak if he gets beat.

The positiger in me says we finish 9-3, but the realist in me says 8-4.

7-5 is what I thought he’d do, and that should get him fired.

Lol it will not take a miracle to beat Georgia. They are literally only a 7 pt favorite and have an implied probability of winning of 67%. A 33% chance of winning does not require a miracle. Calm down.

It is a 9-3 imo. Much better than I thought going into the season. It really looked to be a 7-5 season then.

A seven point favorite on the road in TS is significant.

Its looking more likely that 8-4 is the ceiling for this team.

The miracle would be anybody beating Bama. We have as good a shot at that as all other teams. LSU can beat UGA. We weren't the 5th best team in the country, but we haven't all of a sudden dropped to the worst in the SEC West. LSU has to play a good game Saturday, the crowd has to make a difference and LSU can win against Georgia. LSU fans go from one extreme to the next. We will be in every game from here on out....need some breaks, need to have good game plans and need to execute. We are not near the Bama level, but nobody is.

Tigers beat UGA, MSU and lose to Bama

I also think aTm to be a win.....provided a pass rush is discovered.

10-2....9-3 likely

State and aTm are definitely winnable and should be split, at worst. Arkansas should be a W so losing it would be a disaster.

UGA is going to be tough, but there's an outside chance for the upset.

Bama is going to drag their nuts over LSU.

8-4 finish. Maybe another 9 win season if they can win the bowl game.

If 7-5 gets O to hire a competent offensive coordinator then so be it. Watching this team struggle to score year after fricking year is stupid considering the talent that has played here.

I think O should get one more year with the caveat that he hires someone to finally install the spread here and then he stays the frick out of the way.

Easily 7-5 or 8-4 best case. And all the O lovers will accept mediocrity

I think LSU needs to restructure from the top down. And hire admins that care about winning. This hire screams I accept being average

True but people don’t generally fire themselves. The current political climate in Louisiana does give a shite about LSU football.

I have that same fear. Look, winning begets winning, and a winning program attracts talent (great talent). What's got me concerned is a dismal season can have a negative effect on recruiting. As it applies to recruiting talent what I see developing is a sort of pecking order with Nick Saban (in the east) at the top, followed by Jimbo Fisher (in the west) next and everyone else (including Ed Orgeron). So Fisher (in the west) surveys the available pool of talent in Texas and he also sees Tom Herman over at Texas. You get my drift? So Jimbo Fisher exploits his winning persona (and record) and begins to attract and pull talent out of Louisiana. Since Nick Saban owns the recruiting in Louisiana (especially North Louisiana),talent will naturally gravitate to the winning coaches and programs.

Ed Orgeron has to win. No wiggle room here.

8-4 is what I think. I am more worried abt Moo State than UGA because of their mobile QB.

Ensminger will return next season unless he steps down voluntarily. Orgeron will never admit he made a mistake in hiring his buddy rather than conducting a legitimate search for a qualified OC.

Isn't Ensminger's offense statistically worse than Canada's was?

We lost on the road, in a tough environment, to a well coached team. Everyone calm the frick down. This team is built to play any type of team close so there is a lot of scenarios going forward with this team including losing out or winning out. Some great home games coming up, hopefully we can right the ship after this stretch.
