I said a few weeks ago, 8-4.

I think they go 10-2. I think the QB play will be a source of frustration for the fans the entire year.

I think the ones we do lose will be due to poor QB play or lack of making plays.

Teams will begin stacking the box on us more so than usual by the 4/5 game. It will be a tough spot. I think quite a few other programs though are going to have the same struggles. So, 10-2 is feasible.

at A&M being solid. They were mediocre at best last year because they had a Heisman winner. Take him away.. Jesus. I said it before.. Missouri was more equipped to be better in the SEC than A&M. Anyway. I like 9-3. I think 10-2 is a real solid year. Just a tough schedule. The AU Florida games do not appeal.

I think if we're getting some solid QB play from either we'll have a great season. I think we drop one in the swamp and one to Bama.

Undefeated if we can muster average QB play.

10-3 with a bowl victory. The inexperience is there to lose a couple more, however the talent is there to win more than 10 with a couple of fortunate bounces. Just don't get the folks who are sure we lose to Auburn and 'Bama and durn sure can't fathom those who feel the youth won't prevail against UF, Ark or aTm.

If we make it through the first 1/4 of the season without a loss, I think we make the playoff. This team will only get better as the season progresses.

Well Bama has had our number of late. Irritates the hell out of me. So until that faithful day if I am to say we are going to lose a game it's going to be to the best team on the schedule. And Florida is always tough in the swamp. Except against Georgia southern.

We're only talking about two seasons and LSU essentially blew the 2012 game. Prior to the Mulligan game, LSU had defeated 'Bama 9 of 12 meetings. It's just as easy to see the Tigers thumping 'Bama this year as it has been since the turn of the century IMO. Florida is a tough road game but one that LSU has split in the last six meetings. Their is no reason to believe that LSU doesn't have a decent shot to win both of those games. By the same token, I'm only picking the Tigers to go 9-3 during the regular season due to some inexperience. Wouldn't be shocking to see them do better than that.

I wonder if lsu fans will complain about playing in the chicken bowl. Especially considering its a play off game in 2017.

then we should all expect 11-1 since we've had every other teams number of late. We have a winning record over every sec team on our schedule the last 3 meetings except for bama. So why shouldn't we expect to win?

Teams always do this yet we still manage to run the ball. I for one am excited to be going back to pounding it and making teams quit. That quick strike offense didn't help much.
