re: Game 1—Mia vs LSU

Just a heads up.. This is a terrible place to come if you actually want to talk real football without A-holes telling you you're wrong or trolling you.

I think both teams match up evenly. It’s going to come down to a big play here and there and special teams.

If our special team woes continue from last season, it will make for a very long season and we will lose this game.

Justice- offensive line is an unknown at this point. We return 2 pretty good starters and have Boulware who transferred from Tennessee that I’ve heard is pretty good.
Our defense was able to beat our offensive line in spring ball. I’m hoping that experience has helped them to prepare and be ready. Good thing is our D is legit so they are facing at least 1st team speed and strength vs top opponents they’ll see this year. They definitely won’t be fantastic and unfortunately we don’t have a level headed QB to avoid mistakes. He can run the QB draw well though which will help our line from pressure

If it were possible to keep a select few out of the thread, they could all be like this.

Please tell me briefly about your defense last year and who you lost? Do you see a drop off or who is replacing them and how will it affect Miami in your opinion?

Game 1—Mia vs LSU by LSUcajun77 After Ahmmon Richards, how do y’all look at WR? I know Richards was a pre-season All-American and y’all have recruited very well. How much will Lingard contribute in a crowded backfield and Homer already established as a really good back. Will he RS?

---

The receiver position has been One of the Miami’s better recruited positions since richt came in and we are loaded there: After ahmmon we have Jeff thomas ,mark pope, Brian hightower, Lawrence Cager, Marquez Ezzard, mike harley. All of those guys were 4 star receivers.

Lingard will probably play some vs lsuand he’s very explosive but I expect To see Travis homer mainly and then after him deejay Dallas who is also really good and then lingard.

Welcome

Lsu stacked
Miami fricked

Any other questions?

LSUCajun- agree with most of your defensive rankings outside of two.
I’d take the Canes LBs over any other unit in the country. Not trying to be a homer but they are experienced, mature, strong, fast and smart.
Also I’d have to say at S I’d take Miami. J Johnson is going to be all american, very similar to Sean Taylor. He was a beast last year, this year he’ll be like a man amongst boys.(Mark my words barring injury he’s a true first round talent)

In your opinion, can you give me an advantage at each position? IMO QB - Push (Not sure about Burrow or Rosier) RB - Miami TE - Push (losing Pettigrew hurts, We have Moreau and Moss, not sure about Miami) OL - LSU (We have some young starters with experience and two other starters and some depth) WR - Miami ( We have Giles and then it’s unknown) DE - LSU DL - LSU LB - Miami or Slight push. (Miami is loaded) CB - Push ( W/ Fulton LSU) S - LSU or Slight push

Since our dline will be going up against your oline I think Miami has the advantage in that matchup just like how LSU would have the advantage in their dline over our oline. Remember yeah we took losses on the dline but we also did a lot of rotations and bring back guys who have contributed to a lot of the stats like Miami leading the country in sacks per game and being top 5 in the country in tfls.

Qb- Miami over LSU . Burrow hasn’t played yet and at least we have an ideal how rosier would do.

-rosier ended the season not good at all and had a solider injury in the 8th game of the season which affected him for sure but he’s not that bad. Still had 3200 yards passing 26 tds 480 rushing with 5 tds (a total of 31 tds) and won 10 games in the row.

Rb- Miami over LSU
Miami starter for sure and depth wise. LSU is not as strong here as they have been in the previous 10 years.

Te- LSU over Miami.
Miami with the better talent here but LSU has experienced depth so LSU.
Miami will largely be depending on Michael Irvin son at tight end and the #1 te in the 2018 class Brevin Jordan and another top 10 te in the 2018 class will mallory to contribute immediately who is 6’5 230 and runs a 10.99 in the 100m. I know LSU has foster Moreau who Is solid but nothing really special but he does have experience. So LSU here I guess Since we will be depending on young players ?.

Receiver- Could be a push
both teams are stacked for sure but Miami has the best one in Ahmmon Richards and return every receiver in addition to recent blue chip additions at the position in the last class. I know LSU is REALLY talented here with Marshall who is coming off an injury and Jamarr chase but they are freshman and haven’t played yet. LSU is replacing dj chark and another receiver I believe so no much experience there.

oline- LSU over Miami-
I know Ours isn’t nothing to brag about and they are okay.
Miami is returning 3 starters and we really need to figure out who are going to be the starting guards. We moved freshman all American navaughn Donaldson to right tackle after he played guard in 2017.
LSU I’m sure have talent here as well but loss some guys too right?

De- Miami has the best de in joe Jackson and I think they have more players who have experience here but I know LSU has talent as well.

Dt- LSU for sure here, Willis and Silvera are dogs for Miami for sure but I know how well LSU has recruited here overall.

Lb- Miami, Miami’s 3 linebackers have started since they were freshman and this is now their junior season. Quarterman and Pinckney are playmakers at the position. LSU imo does have the best linebacker though in Devin white.

Cb - (push but LSU has the best player here in greedy Williams). Both have really talented groups.
-greedy Williams is the top corner in the country and y’all have kary Vincent and kelvin Joseph plus the Stanford transfer.

-Miami returns Michael Jackson who is a top 5 corner in the country, Trajan bandy who played a lot last year and brought in 3 4 Star dbs(2 which enrolled early and have been really impressive).

Safety. Miami over LSU in terms of starters. But depth I’ll take LSU over Miami here.
Jaquan Johnson arguably the best safety in the country had 96 tackles 4 ints 3 forced fumbles as a junior.

Sheldrick redwine is better than John battle with too, grant Delpit who is obviously at LSU is legit though.

If we are comparing starters I’d say Miami here but overall depth at the position? LSU


Overall it might be a close game but who honestly knows, can’t wait
