re: LSU ranked No. 6 in preseason AP

LSU fans just don’t understand that losing so many players PLUS a record setting QB should effect their ranking. Bash me all you want but it’s a gift that LSU is #6 esp having a starting QB who has not even had a meaningful snap the whole time he has been here.

Bama remains top 3 every year no matter how many players they lose. Lsu starts out at 6 after destroying their schedule last year....smh

Well Alabama to their credit has proved they can follow a championship type season with another run at one. LSU needs to prove it can do it back to back. I think they have the team and coaching to do it, but have to do it on the field. Those type expectations and rankings are sort of priced already. Alabama would have to do something totally unexpected this year like loose 3 games (which they have not done since 2010) to get a lower starting point in the pre-season polls
