re: Prediction for Football Season, tell me why I'm wrong

deep, talented o line and dline. thats what wins....we have that. More talent at qb. top ten defense. athletic wrs everywhere....

With the upcoming schedule we have 9-10 win talent but a six win coach.....

My honest opinion is that we can beat Miami on a neutral field if we are well prepared.

Still think Florida is a possibility also because of talent alone.

Texas A&M is a toss-up as of today only because of new staff at TA&M. Otherwise we win that game for sure.

Try and be optimistic.

Now, the 2019 season? Expectations will be a lot higher.

This program and talent has been lacking and only getting worse.

Expecting LSU football fans to be content with 4 L’s last season with two of those losses producing significant embarrassment to our program is more than a little naïve.

Those two losses, where Moo State scored 37 points on Aranda's defense and a very good 12 & 2 Troy State team scored 24 points on Aranda's defense are not on coach O. As it wasn't O who left the team with no depth. Instead, it was the legacy of Les Miles still haunting this LSU football team. I'm so glad he is finally gone. Anyway, no one is going to convince me that Aranda would have allowed those two teams to score so many points against his defense without inadequate depth.

Then when O gets all over Canada's arse for his piss poor offensive game planning and play calling against Moo State, Syracuse, and Troy State last year, it means O is guilty of meddling even though he is the freaking head coach. Yeah right. He's damned if he does and damned if he doesn't.

Anyway, O got it turned around when his detractors were screaming he wouldn't win 4 games and went on a 6 & 1 tear to end the regular season and actually outgained Alabama at Alabama in that one game he lost.

The bowl loss was a fluke, similar to the Florida loss in 2016. As LSU was the better team on the field in both of those games and I don't care what you haters say because I know it is not true.

Finally, he is treated with the respect of a coach that finished 4 & 9, instead of 9 & 4.

Then O is trashed for this last recruiting class, but you know what, it met our needs as it addressed that severe lack of depth that harmed the team in the Moo State and Troy State losses last season. Not to mention that this was also one of the weakest in-state classes anyone can remember in a long, long time. But, nonetheless, O didn't do too bad considering the circumstances, as we ended up with the number one receiver class, the number three defensive line class, the number six linebacker class, and the number 9 offensive line class.

Go ahead, down vote away.

That's about what I think we'll be too. 6-6 or 7-5

Florida and Texas A&M will improve, but not next year. I think we beat both of those teams. Miami and Auburn games are tossup games. Georgia and Alabama are probable losses.

Long story short: We're going 10-2 at best and 8-4 at worst. I'll take the average and predict 9-3. Hopefully we can win the bowl game and get to 10 wins.

Miami is winnable, Florida is winnable...so I'm looking at 8 wins max

Miami ain't beating us our defense is going to be too nasty and we'll finally have a offense to compete
