Gotta love America where you can get fired as a football coach and make even more money than when you were employed.

I’ll say yes. Everyone saying no will focus on the holes we have which is fair but I truly believe we have the best coaching staff in the country. Coaching will cary this team to the playoff.

ESPN also said Ohio State was better than LSU AFTER LSU went undefeated and won the natty.

ESPN lol.

Way too many people on here accepting mediocrity. BK was hired to compete for championships and he said we’d compete in year 3

No. We are deficient at DT and DB.

So there are 12 teams out there that aren’t deficient anywhere in their team?

They've made it four years in a row in my CF25 Dynasty so yeah. They're great at finding 3 star gems.

Depends on attrition in other conferences. Other conferences are so top heavy that you end up with the same one or two undefeated or one-loss teams. The SEC will beat itself out of at least one spot.

That’s not a prediction of 11 wins.
LSU win total is set at o/u 9.5

Odds are about the same as making the playoff so it seems Vegas is actually favoring LSU going 9-3.

I'll say no. The defense still stinks, and the offense takes a step back.

Now if the defense can miraculously become decent I will happily change my tune.

I can guarantee they either will or will not make the playoffs this season.
