With spring football launching into full swing this month, let’s take a look at my top 25, with a nod to staff changes, transfer portal additions, 2023 recruit signings and what programs need to shore up in their 15 practices before the summer.


1. Georgia
2. Michigan
3. Ohio State
4. USC
5. Tennessee
6. Alabama
7. Penn State
8. Florida State
9. Utah
10. Clemson
11. Washington
12. Notre Dame
13. Kansas State
14. TCU
15. Oregon
16. Wisconsin
17. UCLA
18. LSU

Losing Kayshon Boutte to the NFL will be tough for LSU to overcome, but not impossible.

The Tigers return quarterback Jayden Daniels and wideout Malik Nabers, but that's about it in terms of proven passing attack personnel for LSU.

Spring is open for former Alabama wideout Aaron Anderson to establish himself as the solid No. 2 receiver, and for talented Brian Thomas Jr. to make a mark with Kyren Lacy.


19. Oregon State
20. Colorado
21. Oklahoma
22. Iowa
23. Kansas
24. Texas
25. Texas Tech

The fact that he even has Oklahoma sniffing the top 25 after their dumpster fire season tells you all about his homerism.

Dude has always been jaded against LSU. Even in 2019 he didn't want to give full credit.

Look at all of the PAC 12, Big 10, and Big 12 schools ahead of us from a fox sportswriter. Guess who broadcasts those leagues???

Boutte had the second-most yards and second-most receptions last season. Still stupid for them to act like he was the most significant WR LSU had.

Malik Nabers WR - 72 REC for 1017 YDS - 14.1 AVG - 3 TDs

Kayshon Boutte WR - 48 REC for 538 YDS - 11.2 AVG - 2 TDs

Mason Taylor TE - 38 REC for 414 YDS - 10.9 AVG - 3 TDs

Jaray Jenkins WR - 27 REC for 404 YDS - 15 AVG - 6 TDs

Brian Thomas Jr. WR - 31 REC for 361 YDS - 11.6 AVG - 5 TDs

Kyren Lacy WR - 24 REC for 268 YDS - 11.2 AVG - 0 TDs

Jack Bech WR - 16 REC for 200 YDS - 12.5 AVG - 1 TDs

Josh Williams RB - 21 REC for 132 YDS - 6.3 AVG - 0 TDs

John Emery Jr. RB - 13 REC for 129 YDS - 9.9 AVG - 2 TDs

Chris Hilton Jr. WR - 7 REC for 109 YDS - 15.6 AVG - 0 TDs

Noah Cain RB - 9 REC for 76 YDS - 8.4 AVG - 0 TDs

Kole Taylor TE - 5 REC for 55 YDS - 11 AVG - 0 TDs

Armoni Goodwin RB - 4 REC for 19 YDS - 4.8 AVG - 0 TDs

Landon Ibieta WR - 2 REC for 15 YDS - 7.5 AVG - 0 TDs

Evan Francioni WR - 1 REC for 14 YDS - 14 AVG - 0 TDs

Jack Mashburn TE - 2 REC for 12 YDS - 6 AVG - 0 TDs

Jayden Daniels QB - 1 REC for 5 YDS - 5 AVG - 1 TDs

Javen Nicholas WR - 1 REC for 2 YDS - 2 AVG - 0 TDs

1 Malik Nabers 72 rec 1017 yards 14.1 ypc 3 TDs

3 Mason Taylor 38 rec 414 yards 10.9 ypc 3 TDs

4 Brian Thomas Jr.31 rec 361 yards 11.6 ypc 5 TDS

Add Aaron Anderson, Shelton Sampson, and Jalen Brown. Somehow I think we'll survive losing Boutte's production from last season.

I wish the actual AP would start us in the mid-late teens. Perfect placement to let other teams feel the pressure while our guys feel disrespected and have a chip on their shoulders.

Unfortunately, not everyone is as dumb as this guy.

Take out the Georgia game and the most memorable thing Kayshon did last year was drop passes that hit him square in the body

I wish more publications would post this type garbage. Let the team be even more motivated.
