It’s a Louisiana paradigm. “What’s mine is mine, and what’s yours is mine.”

It’s hilarious to think that by branding ourselves as “Louisiana” that we are going to somehow take away the powers of the LSU brand. It’s quite absurd.

Ul football is actually on the cusp on becoming the next Boise State quite possibly. I mean a 16 preseason ESPN ranking ain't nothing. Could mean competition in state for players for LSU. LSU no like

Going to have to disagree with that. They were not better than Missouri. Perhaps Mississippi st. Though.


UL beat Iowa State last season, A team who was better than LSU

No doubt a great win. I believe it though, and Missouri lost to Mississippi st. Still think they were better. Do you think ULL was better Team than Iowa st?

Iowa st got outcoached and out gameplanned. If they had played 5 times Iowa st wins the next 4. Just my opinion though. I would like to see them get the program started like Boise st did. It would make some fun in state games for the first time in forever. Like a Marshall vs West Virginia style rivalry.

They got outcoached and out gameplanned......yet.....they still win the next 4 of 5 if played??? Wow. I guess UL and Napier just go away for those next 4 games? I guess they have no chance to again out coach and out game plan them again in those games lol.

Talent disparity catches up. If they had played at the end of the season it would have been a different result too. Doesn’t take away from the fact that Napier did a great job. And they were a great sunbelt team.

yeah. This one quote fully proves your 'prognostications' are 100% predicated on a stupid and short-sighted bias.

There is so much miss in this list. That’s clickbait. I bet half of these teams don’t finish in the top 25.

This guys gets it. For sure, we have a lot to prove this season, but Cajun Nation is pretty confident Napier will get it done. And that our Admin will ensure that the next HC carries it on, once Napier is finally lured away.

So much for the reputations of LSU's powerball paid head coach and his million dollar assistants.
Another shite the bed this season and they should be run out of town BUT LSU will not be able to afford to purge them for couple more years.

My ‘Prognostications’ , which to be fair are only that. Are based on the talent gap of skill position and depth between sunbelt teams and big 12 teams. I don’t have a reason to be biased against Louisiana. You can get as butthurt as you want about that, but a top 10 big 12 team will beat a good sunbelt team 80% of the time isn’t a biased statement. Perhaps you should evaluate your own bias.

Name one in state player in the current class (2022) that both LSU and UL are actively recruiting where it's considered "competitive."

And still will lose a head scratcher to Kansas St or the like.

Or they'll go undefeated and get stomped in the playoffs like usual.

Any fan who makes predictions off 2020 results is a fool.
There was nothing normal about that season.

This is ridiculous on the face of it. Here's a Sun Belt team that has never scored a touchdown against LSU, in ~24 games played, ranked ahead of the Tigers!

I can assure you if LSU played ULL straight up on the gridiron in 2021, LSU would come out on top more than 9 out of every 10 tries. Even if the game were played in the old McNasty swamp in Lafayette.

ESPN ratings is a bag of shite! Who cares, the Tigers will be much better than last year ! Last year we had no defense & our offense line sucked.
