LSU fans are sleeping on UCF, and it's a big mistake...

I sure hope our players aren't.

It's amazing the confidence everyone has on this game, and it's unwarranted. LSU is playing without a majority of their leaders on defense. And our defense is what we have leaned on.

Why is this important? Because the depth is not there now. And with a team like UCF, depth could become really dam important.

It was this same confidence we had going into AM, and I stated then, that we could lose that game.

Our offense tends to play to the competition, and it's just not responsible for us to think we can score with them if this begins to get into a high scoring affair.

This is the kind of team that is a matchup nightmare for us, especially missing SO MUCH on defense, and having a severe lack of depth. It's a big deal.

Laugh all you want, but the tigers better very careful. Alexander got abused the entire AM game. Young players equals confusion. Confusion leads to explosive plays.

Be careful, be very careful.

We're going to struggle with this team...

too many starters out...

the only thing I feel good about is UCF has a new QB who I think is a true Freshman

Aranda should be able to handle him...

Well, if we play lose, maybe we won't loose the game. That about right?

What difference does it make if we think UCF is a joke? Attitudes of fans have never won or lost a game.

I would be more concerned if the attitude of our fans had anything to do with how the team played.

I love it when people say this, as if it has any impact on the game whatsoever.

The fans can think whatever they want.

No they are not. LSU is down 3 top corners and the 4th ones father just passed this week.

You’re a damn soothsayer.
You should wake all our fans up then they can wake up the team.

There are just as many who concerned about UCF. We now have depth issues which is a problem when you face a team that plays as fast as UCF.

In the end, it doesn't matter what fans think. The Tiger players aren't sleeping on UCF. They've watch film; game planned and are well aware that UCF beat Auburn last year. It's up to the players not the fans.

We have no leaders out.

Fulton is hurt, is there, but he’s a 1st year starter not a huge team leader.

Greedy is an amazing talent but he was not a leader. Great player not a leader

Ed Alexander is a solid player, but not a leader.

Phillips is out a half but he’s still there and he’s not even the leader of the linebackers.

Fehoko has been hurt but he’s been around and can still be a leader.

Devin White, Rashard Lawrence, Grant Delpit, Michael Divinity. Those are our undisputed leaders on defense..
