What? We are the #3 ranked defenses. You can't diminish what Boise or TCU is doing. Especially TCU with the defenses they've faced.
Yes you can...all you have to do is look at the schedule to see how pitiful the opposition is...
Playing teams in no name conferences who post good "stats" because they play other no name opposition, doesn't justify Boise's or TCU's defensive rankings.
Boise and TCU COMBINED have played 3 legitimate opponents with one being a common opponent in Oregon St. so the stats are a bit skewed in their favor. Not saying they aren't good teams, but their stats are a bit skewed in comparison to LSU and other major conference teams.

Again, LSU has not played a notable QB or great offense all year.
LSU's schedule hasn't been that tough so far regardless of what SOS says.

Auburn, Arkansas, and Bama all have better offenses than any team LSU has faced.
I can play this game, too. None of those teams have faced a defense as good as LSU's. And that will be demonstrated starting this weekend.
I honestly think Alabama is a classic case of a team peaking early then coming back down to earth. I think you're already seeing evidence of that.

Name a team with more wins against ranked opponents current/past.
LSU has NC, WVU, FL, and now MS ST.

Alabama is the best team in the SEC.
It's just completely unfair that what, EVERY SEC opponent they face gets a bye the week before? I think Arkansas is the only exception.
They didn't peak early... they'll get better from here on out.

And all this against the toughest schedule in the top 10
We haven't played anybody with a halfway decent offense yet.
LSU opponent - national offensive ranking
UNC - 73th
Vandy - 109th
MSU - 36th
WVU - 74th
Tenn - 104th
UF - 67th

Neither UNC or FLA is ranked
Posted on 10/19/10 at 2:02 pm to ccomeaux
Florida ain't ranked no more.
Neither is UNC, that was half a team regardless
WVU almost lost to Marshall
Moo State is a decent win..

South Carolina agrees completely.

Alabama has a bye week against LSU. Hypocrite much?

The Tide will lose to LSU, and probably AU as well. And don't sleep on Mississippi State.

The hell does a past ranking have to do with anything? Its where you finish

Wanna put money on it?

LSU is still the only team in the SEC with an OOC win over a team currently ranked.

We are discussing SOS josh.
Posted on 10/19/10 at 2:06 pm to ccomeaux
And SOS doesn't take into account where teams are ranked/not ranked when you play them

So you think WVU is one of the best 25 teams in the country?

quote:Ahem...ummm..s'cuse me but you seem to be forgetting one little factoid here...'Bama has a bye before playing LSU as well. Enough of this "bye" shite already, I'm sick of hearing how 'Bama is all butthurt over teams having byes before playing them. If 'Bama is supposedly the "best" team in the SEC are you really going to wet your panties over Tenn having a bye and Georgia "freaking" State having a bye???

Yeah, take that bye shite and GFY

GTFO. I'm increasingly confident that we'll win every game on in. If the coaches get the QB rotation right, Bama doesn't stand a chance. As it is, I think we'll beat you irrespective of a lackluster offensive performance.
