why don't you just go away we don't need band wagon fans. You were on here 24/7 the week of the OM game saying how bad this team was and they OM was going to beat us badly and that we would lose 3 of the next 4, if not all 4. Just go away. No one has any respect for you.

USC was very good


they have lost every game they have lost in the final seconds after having a lead. It is bizarre. They were up 2 tds in this game midway through the 4th. The only close game they won was us. Play them now and we are 2 td winners.

If Nuss comes back next year,


Thing that worries me though is that we are losing 80% of our OL, and 2 of our top recs. Not sure about Mason Taylor either. That combined with him being projected a 1st rounder makes me think he may leave. I guess it may depend on how our OL will look next year. I'm sure we can grab a guy or two in the portal if need be, and maybe at WR as well. I don't want to go into the opening game next year on the road at Clemson with a TF QB.

So teams with one loss have major issues? Alabama with two losses? Think LSU will be favored over Alabama? Texas A&M? Right now LSU and A&M are only two left with no SEC losses. Next week it will be only one.

No!
I am not “flat out stunned” this team is where it is.
A lot of you gave up on this team after the first game.
Ready to fire BK, team on a downhill trajectory, blah blah blah!

What say you now? Flat out stunned! Quick, jump back on the train.

It’s a function of the schedule. Our hardest games are in the future and none of the teams we’ve beaten so far have turned out to be world beaters. USC just lost to Maryland. If we beat TAMU and Bama, I’ll get excited. But these will be our toughest games by far, granted we are improving as the season goes on.

I think A&M game will be tougher than Bama

We’re beating Alabama this year

South Carolina should have beaten Bama last week, bama literally lucked out in the end, at Bama. They destroyed OU. They are a good team.

Ole Miss...don't sleep on them. They are very good and could very easily run the table.

Arkansas just beat Tenn at home their previous game. It wasn't a fluke.

Alabama is in trouble....no identity on offense or defense...please let that be a night game in Tiger Stadium. After A&M Florida may be our toughest game left. OU is a dumpster fire, and Vandy is in Baton Rouge. We win at A&M and we are in the driver's seat for the SEC Championship and playoffs. It is a huge game, for both teams.

Imagine this team with the stable of WR's from any other season over the past decade

no kidding. Not shitting on our WR's, but they don't get a lot of separation downfield. Last year Neighbors and BT were running 5 yards open downfield. It is ashame that our 5 star wr sampson hasn't worked out.

No, not really. In fact I'm surprised we struggled for so long to get the run game going.

I’m not surprised. In the NIL era, teams will develop during the season because there are so many new additions. What I love about LSU the past three years is this and JD5s team never quit at any point year, no matter the situation. The Tennessee game in BK’s first year is the only game I can remember where the team was so flat and didn’t seem to have the effort.

In two years, we’ll have four top recruitng classes and the BK program in place with players who have been in the program for 3 - 4 years, who understand how to prepare during the season and off season, understand the O and D, and will compete for championships year in and year out. It’s amazing how many true freshman are contributing and how some key transfers are developing into their talent. Yes, they’re not perfect, but the positive vibes associated with this program now are great to watch.

We should have learned by now that Kelly’s teams start slow but improve as the season progresses.

When LSU was down to SC 17-0, I thought the season was over

The most formidable hurdle left in the reg season appears to be A&M this Saturday.

LSU will likely be favored at home vs Oklahoma and Vandy, and even Alabama. Florida is a different kennel of fish-- I think Napier is determined to be relevant in the SEC, and desperate to keep his job.

I think we are going to go undefeated every year. My glasses are very purple.

I’ve been right once.

Not me. I knew people were over reacting to the USC game. I predicted LSU would was Arkansas by 3+ TDs while everyone was crying about it being a trap game
