I’m not convinced that anyone in the SEC is much better than LSU.

That’s not to say that LSU is going undefeated the rest of the year. I just don’t think there’s any team they can’t beat on any given day. There is a ton of parity.

We play State, Texas and Alabama at home. I thought Tennessee on the road might be the biggest test. However, Tennessee is currently pissing around at home with a very mediocre Auburn team. I would be very disappointed if we lost to Kentucky or Auburn.

The door is open if the Tigers can make it through October and get a few players back.

If I was really pressed for an unbiased opinion, I think I would write LSU third behind Alabama and Georgia based on what I’ve seen so far. I don’t think Texas is going to be able to move the ball on us, especially in Tiger Staduim.

The portal greatly levels the playing field. One week a team looks unbeatable and the next very average.

Tennessee won’t be able to move the ball on our defense.

Bama's QB play is impressive. I give them that edge over Texas and UGA. But, they also don't have a smothering defense. They will keep good teams in the game against them.

Neither am I, but it seems the SEC is a straight up meat grinder this year more so than usual. I’d be surprised if anyone makes it through to Atlanta without an L.

It’s basically the NFL at this point. Anyone can win

LSU has very good talent and good coaching. At the end of the year the best teams are going to be the ones that improve the most from here on. Injuries are part of that, so hopefully that does not get worse.

At our best we can play with anyone. As long as we don’t start another half playing soft zone and leavitt missing open receivers I like our chances

Their pass rush is nasty and their physical at LB. Db room has talent but up and down in man coverage

Seriously? Let’s see; Georgia, Texas. You think LSU is going to beat Tennessee in Knoxville?

I think we go undefeated at home regardless of who we play.

We really don't know how good LSU is. Lot's of sloppy play on offense and still getting lot's of yards and points.

Our defense has been pretty consistent but,.....we have a ton of injuries there.

IMO, we don't know what this team is. All the pieces seem to be there,.....

Ala,geo,Tex are above the rest .LSU can beat any of them if they play great all 4 quarters.

GA and AL definitely
Possibly Tx too but we have them at home

Leavitt has 4 turnovers in a game again, we can lose to any SEC team

Have to go 6-1 after tonight to make the playoffs. Easier said than done especially with the injuries piling up early.

Home field advantage is a real deal in the SEC, especially this year. It will result in several good teams getting a loss.
