quote:

Outlook: After flaming out in the defense of their national championship in 2020, the Tigers are undergoing a massive rebuild. Coach Ed Orgeron has two new coordinators -- former Carolina Panthers assistant Jake Peetz is leading the offense and former Minnesota Vikings secondary coach Daronte Jones is guiding the defense. There are three other new assistants as well, including passing game coordinator DJ Mangas, who like Peetz worked with former LSU coordinator Joe Brady.

There was a four-way battle for the starting quarterback job this spring, and Myles Brennan and Max Johnson will keep competing into preseason camp. Brennan opened 2020 as the starter, but he missed the final seven games with a torn abdominal muscle. Johnson played well as a freshman last season, and Peetz might favor his mobility.

The Tigers brought back their entire starting offensive line, although Anthony Bradford was pushing right guard Chasen Hines during the spring. It needs to perform better than it did a year ago. Marshall Jr. turned pro, along with Ja'Marr Chase, who opted out of the entire 2020 season. Tight end Arik Gilbert's availability for next season is also uncertain.


21. Coastal Carolina
22. Texas
23. Penn State
24. Arizona State
25. Maimi

ESPN's preseason rankings are always the laughing stock of the sports world

They also have us 6 spots ahead of Texas, though I'd find it tough to believe we're going to be the Vegas favorite at Austin Week 1.

Grain of salt.

That’s Schlabaugh. He does this shite every single year. I also knew he’d have Georgia really high.

ESPN is useless except for watching the game with the voice turned off.

They lost me at Oklahoma and again with ULL, Florida and Ole Miss ahead of LSU. One of the worst teams we have had in years last year and we still beat FL and Ole Miss. ULL is just a joke. Talent matters.

I couldn’t care less where ULL is ranked honestly. Seems like we need to concern ourselves with the many SEC teams ranked ahead of LSU, not a sun belt team.

Well, that's just retarded whoever's putting this poll together because ULL wouldn't have beat LSU last season with LSU's bad defense and all. Lol I don't know where or how I should say some of these fools get the positions that they get at ESPN and other places.

Napier is helluva coach who has done a great job. I don't see why that offends some lsu fans. We need to worry about us.
