It sure seems we are treated like the step child when it comes to espn, even in our best year 2011 it was all about tyrann mathieu and as soon as he was dismissed LSU became a thing of the past
so it was about the best playmaking player on the team... I mean outside of MM could you name other players on Oregon last year? ESPN has always pimped the best player on the best team. LSU doesn't get treated like a step child, just when a analyst says something negative people run here and start the "ESPN hates LSU" threads, when it is something positive it goes maybe 2/3 pages because everyone is like, "well yeah of course."

Great point was made when they said ESPN rates teams and then calls them overrated or underrated. By who?! They are here to entertain us and it evidently does.

Our best LB is Beckwith. He should have been starting all of 2014.
Beckwith is great. The question mark for 2015/16 is Kwon's replacement, not Beckwith.

Our DEs were solid, but not spectacular. I want someone who can provide edge pressure on a consistent basis
I want that too, but this is an unknown on this year's defense.

Our DTs will be our best since 2011/2012.
Remains to be seen, hopefully you're right.


quote:

Awesome up the middle: Lacoutre/Godchaux/Thomas, Beckwith & Mills/Adams. We are set up like a great defensive baseball team.
I agree with Beckwith and Adams. Mills is decent but far from awesome. The d-line guys need to prove themselves.



To clarify, I hope you're 100% right on everything. But as I said, this team has a lot of question marks.

I find it comical that LSU fans get all pissy when any ESPN guy or national publication doesn't them in the top 5 or call for an undefeated season...

Pollock could be spot on... I mean if LSU doesn't get quality qb play they could go 8-5 again.......

Why do y'all get so upset when one person says we are overrated?

Not everyone is going to like us all the time, don't take it so personally.

Just wave some candy in front of him and he runs like a little girl. He's a joke and never has liked LSU. BTW aggies have very little talent on defense. It will take a couple years to stock pile that talent.

Name the 4 losses?
Alright... look.... here are the rules: all you have to do is yell "10 wins, baby!" and don't ever talk about what effect the losses had on year-end rankings. Got it? Good.

Why even complain about this? I mean, are we REALLY going to pretend that LSU didn't bring that type rhetoric upon itself?

Look. Yes, LSU is loaded with talent. And, if the only place they sucked arse was at a position like TE or Safety but were loaded everywhere else, no one would call LSU over rated.

But, until proven otherwise, we suck on fricking ice at QB and you CANNOT be successful being HORRIBLE at QB. Any commentator and any ranter who rates us highly is doing so on the pure HOPE that we will be better at QB. Now, that hope may end up justified but, there are literally zero facts in evidence that make this anything more than a "hope".

He's been bashed on here in the past and turned out to be correct about LSU, yet not one apology was ever offered.

Hate to burst your bubble but we're not on anyone's mind. No one fears LSU anymore. Hopefully that changes.


Yeah not the retarded fans and media being typical retard fans and media, but you are a damn fool if you think Gus, Saban, Freeze, Spurrier, Mullen, and Sumlin don't have LSU on the brain. Spurrier hasn't beaten Miles, Sumlin hasn't beaten Miles, Auburn hasn't beaten LSU on the road this millennium, Freeze is 1-2 in his time at Ole Miss, Mullen is 1-5 in his time at MSU and MSU's first win this millennium was last year, and Saban knows it's his toughest yearly matchup.

Fear LSU??? They don't have to fear LSU, but they will bend over and take it in 2015. LSU is the got damn hunter this year, and that's how a Tiger likes it.
