you can with with avg QB play. look at 2011. our run game will be just as good or better than 2011. QB play will also be better. Of course Defense wont be as good as 2011 but it will be better than last year. The guys we are losing on defense are not as big a loss as people are thinking.

I agree with all of that and that is what is inspiring me to say what I am saying. I agree with all of it except for the 2011 part. This team won't be that good because we do not have the impact players on Defense like we did then. We do not have the Honey Badger.

I guess I should have clarified that I do not think our D will be near as good, but I can see the season shaking out the same way. Not much was expected of the 2011 team and we snuck up on people. Getting past that first game with Wisconsin will be key, the same way it was with the Oregon game.

I still think '15 will be our year. I feel we will go through growing pains with an inexperienced qb next year and it will cost us a game or two.

Offense will be the inverse of last year. We'll finish with about 3400 rushing and 2700 passing. If James White and Melvin Gordon can combine for 3000 yards on 450 carries, then Magee, Hill, and Fournette, can do the same. Hilliard and Jennings will add in about another 400 yards. If we can get the whole OL back, I expect huge numbers in the run game, something around 3500 on 620 carries.

The defense at Secondary will be a major upgrade, the key this year will be in limiting rushing success. We do that, our run game will be good enough to shred teams with 45-48 carries a game.

Auburn
Ole Miss

Are who worry me considering they bring most of their who team back.

We could go 9-3 or 10-2 that's my prediction.

Who do yall think starts oppo Dural assuming the guys on the roster and not Malachi Dupree? I am thinking Quinn in the slot (most of our other receivers arent slot guys)...I just dont know much about Diarse and Spears and who has a higher potential


IMO, it's either Spears or Peterson. It could be Leslie if he would eat something.

Nah. 1 loss at most. Cam will have a QB ready. D line will be fast and Chief will scheme to cover any weakness.

our D will be solid this year
why is anyone thinking this? our biggest weakness was our interior front 7 and we lose both DTs and prob sit through another year of Welter at MLB and you think we'll improve?? we likely regress.

the weakest part of our D was the middle and we lose our starters and you think we'll get better. no, we won't. our secondary has promise b/c they were young this year but they hardly looked improved vs. winless arkansas. it's nice to assume freshman that started will be twice as good next year but we all thought that about the two jalen's and it didn't happen. tre' and RR have the potential but we've had better CB's than them and the safeties are a huge question mark. jalen at SS is a good sign but i have no faith in thompson and ricky looked lost v. arky. we looked good against iowa because they're a mid-tier big 10 team that even welter looked good against. WELTER. our projected starting MLB. yea ego and freak underachieved but lacouture and thomas didn't exactly look like world-beaters so you're hoping a bunch of redshirts turn into stars or we're not any better than this year.

the future of the program is bright but next year is not gonna be our year. if we beat wiscy maybe 9-3 but that's the ceiling for me.

Even though our front was weak this year we have guys behind them that are ready to breakout. Our front 7 while talented underproduced this year. The guys we lost this year on defense are not as good as the guys that will start next year. Also, our younger guys who did play will have a year to develop.

Just because a guy took a redshirt doesn't mean he wasn't good. Look back at our history the past 10 years and you will see a ton of guys break onto the scene after a year to develop.

The Front 7 will be a Huge improvement over this year and the secondary will be one of the topT in the nation.

The only thing that will hold us back is the inexperience at the QB position. Hopefully whoever the starting QB is will develop quickly over the offseason.

Secondary.

CB: RR and TW (beasts)
Safety: Mills (will be very good)and whoever breaks out.

The incoming secondary class is very good and I look for one of them to be starting by mid-season.

I love your optimism. I'd really like to see LSU beat Bama this next season. And yes, that Auburn game AT Jordan-Hare will be tough, not sure we win that one.
