I guess you would fire a top 10 coach. Top staff. Top recruiters in county.
8-5 and unranked is totally unacceptable.

LSU should never-ever finish below 10-2 with a "Top 10 Coach, Top Staff and Top Recruiters"............

LMAO. Son, shouldn't you be in your remedial English class this morning. Second thoughts, with this reasoning, I think I was assuming you were even 18.....I'm guessing (hoping) you are only 14 or 15 though. Hell, that damn Saban should have been fired in 2010 then right? Many said they had the BEST talent in the nation that year, and he finished below 10-2. You would have axed his azz right then and there huh. LMAO

This place would end up nuking itself if this came to pass.

Tiger Stadium will be rocking, despite it being a day game.


Other than Florida 2013 I can't remember a day game that didn't rock just as hard, if not harder than a night game. Biggest misconception among college football fans. Tiger Stadium is Tiger Stadium, night or day.

I just don't see Auburn like everyone else does apparently. I see a team that wasn't that good last year and caught us perfectly while we weren't that good at the time ourselves. Auburn got worse after that game, while LSU improved significantly. In addition, Auburn returns only 4 starters on offense, and a defense, despite adding muschamp, that wasn't that good last year. I guess time will tell.

They seem to have a really big QB that has a good arm. I'm guessing he can probably run as well.

He may be a first year starter but he looks the part for sure

Fournette Gets 100+ yards rushing before the half. He also has 40 yards receiving. If he returns Kickoffs, tack on another 100+ total yards. So he ends up with like 275 all purpose yards in mostly the first half alone.

We still don't have a named starter at QB.


Maybe not publicly named, but everyone knows Harris is the starter.

Yeah we do. Miles named them about a week or two ago.

What the frick? Dural, Dupre, Diarse, and Quinn are all proven.

McNeese - starters are pulled early... earlier than planned. LSU: "alot of points", McNeese: "not so many".

Miss State - Tigers take big lead early. State closes the gap in 3rd, but not enough to make it close. LSU 41 Miss State 17.

Auburn - Auburn will make some big plays that keep them in a game that gets progressively brutal for their front 7... by the 4th quarter, it will be "no mas" and years will pass, but they'll never forget the name or the jersey number of a running back who hit them harder than they hit him. LSU 38 Auburn 27

Ban bet that LSU does not start 1-2? Don't be a pussy, do it. You guys love trying to bash, why don't you back it up? I'm guessing I won't hear from y


Seriously...STFU Marlin...I'm in on this ban bet as well.
I'll trash Miles with the best of them but not before the man gives me a damn good reason!

How do we know Johnson won't have similar experiences as Brandon Harris did last season? He has looked pretty impressive at times, but the real test comes this season when he is the #1 man. But as we know, it is often (isn't always, but can be) very tough on a first year QB starter.

I also feel that Auburn is over-rated, without too many starters returning. They do have a collection of very talented athletes, so we'll see.

I think LSU will be strongly prepared and motivated for this game and we could see a reversal of last year's game, overwhelmingly in LSU's favor.

Agreed. They ran for 298 on us and passed for 268. After that game, Beckwith solidified himself at linebacker and we didn't give up more than 137 on the ground the rest of the regular season. The CBs will feast on a jittery Jeremy Johnson with at least 1 int. We cut their yardage in half from last year and the (good) Tigers win by 10.

Nick Marshall, Blake Sims, Cardale Jones, Johnny Manziel, Jameis Winston. Even the douche Bo Wallace played very well his first year at Ole Miss, as a sophomore. The list goes on and on.

If they're good and have the proper coaching, they can play well, regardless of experience.

lmao. I love you kids. For every quarterback that you list, five times as many could be identified as QB's who failed because they weren't ready yet...or were below average early on. Even a couple of the ones you listed were never able to beat LSU. It's funny how little kids like you always assume the worst for LSU and the best for other teams...it really is comical. This guy could be good no doubt, but I'd say the odds were fairly good that he won't be his best early on in Tiger Stadium....but hey...what do I know right.

when I see this I just laugh. It tells me that someone is either trolling or honestly has no clue about the teams and just looks at rankings. LSU is favored in the game, Auburn has struggled in BR for some time now, and Auburn was much worse after the LSU game last year where as LSU improved. On top of that, Auburn will be breaking in 7 new starters on offense...which is their bread and butter seeing how the defense has performed recently. Could LSU lose? Absolutely....but come on.....it's not even like it would be an upset if LSU wins.
