In and out of the top 10 next year. If we win the Bowl game we’ll finish in - barely.

That's what I'm thinking

More like a transition year than a rebuild. I've never been more confident in LSU's future and it starts with CEO. His growth/improvement as a HFC is almost as impressive as Joe B's stats from 2018 to 2019. Think about CEO's behavior back in the days of OM & UT and look at him today. I could give numerous examples but it really hit me the other day while listening to a podcast (Pardon My Take) the morning after the NC game. The old EdO would have been a perfect fit during their "drunk interview" with Burrow. The interview (atmosphere) changed immediately after they switched from JB to CEO.

Burping, F-bombs, etc. with JB then :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: with EdO. That's the kind of respect that can keep a team focussed & motivated for an entire season.

Rebuild to a point. I think we see a well put together team by the time we get to the season.

I believe 10-2 or 11-1. I feel that Brennan will be better than an average quarterback with about 30+ TDs. Question to me (as with most on here) will be at linebacker

Max will not start. Redshirt 2020. Brennan is the starter for next 2 years.

11-1. The league is turning to spread offense/RPO. It was fun watching the historic offense of 2019. But LSU will be built next year for a power run game. Run a power spread offense Curry and TDP could both have 1000 along with Chase/Marshall both 1000. The OL could actually be better from a athletic standpoint. That 1 loss I would say will be Florida.

I would say we lose to Auburn on the road and busy Bama up again at home. Back to the playoffs we go

I think LSU will have a similar year to what we saw from Florida and Auburn this season. 10-2 or 9-3.

That 10-2 finish had Florida ranked at #9 in the week 16 cfb rankings.

Auburn's 9-3 had them at #12.

Florida's losses came against LSU and Georgia.

Auburn's losses came against Florida, LSU, and Georgia.

My point is that LSU can lose a few games and still finish near the top 10 just as long as the losses come against good teams.

They'll be in the top 10 if they win the games they're supposed to, win a few they weren't supposed to, and lose a few coin flip games.

Put it this way, 2020 is to 2019 as 2004 was to 2003. We lose some great players and leaders but the team will actually be more talented though less experienced!

The future is bright for LSU, we haven't had this much stockpiled talent across the board since the 2004-2007 run.

Next year, Texas game will be pivotal again. Win the UT game and LSU goes 5-0 into the Swamp. We'll know much more about the team by the end of that game.

Right now I predict 10-2 regular season with losses to either UF, Bama or Auburn.

Win their bowl and LSU will be 11-2 and in the top 10.

I think 10-2 would be a very successful season but you know coach O wants to win them all.

Barring injuries I think we stay top 10, but I doubt I’ll see another season like this in my lifetime...
