Personally I think LSU wins every game they are favored, and gives Bama a run for their money. What do y’all think?
thats exactly what people should expect. although still difficult, the schedule sets up nicely outside of the Bama game

Anything short of a 10-2 regular season would unquestionably be a major failure

I am going to pretend like you are not suggesting that because one player on the 2011 defense had a legendary season, that makes the entire 2011 defense better than the entire 2019 defense.

Fehoko, Lawrence, Divinity, Phillips, Chaisson, Fulton, Stevens, Delpit, and Stingley were all ranked as a 5 star by at least one recruiting service.
Not sure 2011 defense could boast that.
and I'd trade almost all of them for one badger.

2011 -
-Arky was ranked #3 when we played, they will not be good this year
-Pac12 champ Oregon
-SEC east champ UGA
-Top 15 West Virginia

which would be the same for this team if they went to the SECCG
2019 schedule is tougher IMO. Florida and Auburn sucked in 2011. A&M will be a tougher out than than Arky team IMO. MS schools are better now as well.

Not sure how a schedule with the Big East champ the PAC 12 champ, and the national champ isn’t tougher but whatever.

they were 2-10, 0-8 that year. and Nutt had quit by the time we played them, which made the team quit in that game. they were awful, we coulda scored 70 if Les had just kept running the normal offense.
while we're here...

It was a great schedule. Would have been the toughest of any champion had LSU pulled it off.
I just think top to bottom 2019 schedule is tougher. 2011 Florida, Auburn, State, Tenn, and Ole Miss weren't beating LSU that year. Those were bad teams.
For 2019 I just don't see the cakewalks when I look at the schedule. I'm also assuming a lot so this is all speculation. There's probably a team on the schedule we think will be good who'll suck and there's probably a game we think will be a blowout that will turn out to be a dogfight.

I wonder how many fans have looked at A&Ms schedule. I get it, how many LSU fans are going to take the time to look at Aggies schedule?
Aggies will go 7-5 this year. Fact.

If this team has all the talent of the 2011 team, and I think they definitely do, then saying 10-2 is ok directly contradicts that.
One reason may be due to the fact that we have only had 5 one loss (no tie) seasons in the last 100 years. So to act like the season was some kind of failure by not reaching that goal is a bit unreasonable. If that is the criteria then this program has been mired in failure for 95% of the last century.
But I like your optimism and I also don't think that 15-0 is out the realm of possibility
Posted on 8/7/19 at 1:40 pm to PP7WasInbounds
The 2019 team has a better QB than the 2011 team did and potentially a better defense. No reason that the success of 2011 can't be replicated.
Posted on 8/7/19 at 1:40 pm to PP7WasInbounds
The 2011 team play with swag every single game except for the natty. If this year's team can play with the same type of swag and nastiness, then yes, they can go undefeated.

yep
That Arky team was the product of a favorable schedule. They were damn good but had no business being ranked that high.
2019 A&M has better players and a better coach.

which has nothing to do with how easy the game will be in November

LSU goes 11-1 and Bama beats an undefeated UGA in the SEC CG, does 11-1 lsu or 12-1 UGA get the 4 seed?
what were the scores?
Was lsu on the bama 6 when time expired.
How did georgia and lsu do vs tamu?
Those are very good common opponents.
And are all the other p5 champs undefeated or 1 loss or are p12 2 loss?
Does Texas stand as b12 champ with only loss at home to lsu?
Posted on 8/7/19 at 1:46 pm to PP7WasInbounds
11-1 is really the only acceptable outcome (other than 12-0). Losing another game in which we're favored (therefore 10-2) can depend on so many factors not the least of which are injuries to key personnel. And then, of course, there's the bad game like UF last year and in 2016.
Anything less than 10-2 is unacceptable.

Trying to use all 126 years of LSU football is not fair for reasons that should be entirely too obvious to point out.
How many years in those 125 did LSU have a 5th year senior QB, 16 returning starters, and both the offensive and defensive coordinator returning?
