I've come to the realization that LSU was so much better than everyone last year, not because of talent, albeit a huge factor, but because the team chemistry was that of which I have never seen before.

I've come to realize you don't know what you're talking about.

It was talent. T-A-L-E-N-T!

Three LSU Tigers are leading all rookies in offensive production for their positions. Justin Jefferson is leading the entire NFL in efficiency. He wasn't even the best on LSU's team last year! Joe Burrow is the 10th leading passer IN THE NFL! Damien Lewis is THE TOP RATED OL IN THE NFL.

LSU will likely finish 1,2 and 3 in rookie of the year voting. And that offense still has Terrace Marshall and JaMarr Chase left over.

LSU was playing offense with FIVE first round draft choices behind a very good offensive line.

T-A-L-E-N-T!

I don't think you fully comprehended my comment. Talent is the reason LSU went 15-0. Team chemistry is the reason you won nearly every game by double digits. It was palpable.

If you consider that 14 players went to the NFL it would suggest that we pretty much had a pro team last year. Not only did we send players to the next level, but the key players are starting and putting up some pretty good results. Not discounting the talent we have today. This team has reloaded and continues to reload. To me the big difference is identity. It becomes very clear when you watch that hype video that the 2019 team developed the "x" factor. It's leadership, it's attitude, it's brotherhood. That team played hard for each other and for a greater purpose.

Today's team has lots of talent but that character, that identity needs to emerge in order to take the next step. It's a process. They've got to focus on execution. Play the game, go through the bumps and bruises. Fight through the adversity. Then the intangibles start to develop and grow. How you do it becomes your identity. We will be there again. That's why I believe this is going to be a really interesting season to watch. See how these Tigers grow. How they rise to the challenge. What will their identity be?

Oh yeah and that video, like most from 2019, was incredible.
