It is simple, until LSU beats Alabama and Ole Miss, they will be looked at as overrated.


Bama yes, Ole Miss, no. OM isn't special. They had us at their house after two demoralizing defeats by pro style offenses with great running games and great run defenses.

We beat em in 2014 with Jennings at QB (2 ints), we lost in 2013 by 3 when Mett threw three 1st half ints in a row on pretty much the same route or play.

Every game vs Bama in TS has been won or lost in the 4th quarter since Saban's tenure at Bama. LSU just needs to man up and get the win this year.

yea probably not wrong. We usually finish worse than the projections.




He may be wrong because this team is loaded this year. What I do take issue with was that somehow LSU finished below projections, Before the 2015 season just about every reputable publication that rats these things had LSU finishing no better than 3rd in the West. Guess what LSU finished tied for third in the West

This year, they have the personnel along with the experience to THROTTLE all comers like 2011. If Les would unleash them.
