Me either. I'd like our chances against a bama team pre kiffin. but since him they have opened offense up even more and this year with TUA look better than ever,



LSU has shown the ability to improve from their preseason fall scrimmages to beat two top ten teams in three weeks. In another 3 weeks, this same LSU team that beat two top ten teams will have improved even more. I would never sell this 2018 LSU team short, especially with GA. and Ala both having to play in front of a hostile crowd at legendary Tiger Stadium.

This is true yet...LSU is GOOD but not scary good like UGA and Bama have looked.... Now both games will be nailbiters.......... I just hope by that time we will have better offensive production...........

Oregeron has done something Miles never did. He filled holes at QB, Kicker and Special Teams coach. If Miles would have put aside loyalties, he could have won another national title or two. Talent has not been an issue at LSU since pre Saban.

Not quite ready to declare them ready for prime time. I think LSU can take OSU, PSU and OU, but they can brook no more than one loss to make the playoffs.

A single loss to UGA or Bama and I think they have a shot

I'd really like to see us play Clemson right now.

Since there's a selection committee, it would be Bama, ND, Ohio State, and Clemson.

But it’s not held today. We have weeks and many games left to play. Just enjoy the victories and let’s hope they continue to improve. As O himself said, they still need to get much better.

They would die, really, since the reshuffle of playoffs were as much about excluding multiple SEC teams as possible. The more things change, the more they remain the same

I don't see them losing either unless we would get a ton of turnovers and play mistake free

It's possible but not likely. I think this might be Saban's best team. Nobody wants to beat them more than me. I'm married to a gump

Any discussion is predicated on the expectation that LSU will continue to improve rapidly throughout the season. I would not pick us to beat anybody ahead of us right now, except OU.

Later in the season, I like our chances. Just hope we're going to be ready by the time Georgia travels into Death Valley.
