Ole Miss and Bama seem like the only surefire losses (unless this team improves dramatically).

TAMU was extremely overrated like I thought

Kentucky's first game was fools gold, they are below average. They are winning within a TD vs bad team after bad team.

Auburn's first 2 games have been completely fools gold

Florida is living and dying by the QB run. I know people will say, "but Bama", well Florida has been good, not great, in every other game this year. LSU being at home is also a big plus.

Arkansas beat a Texas team that wasn't even playing who they should have at QB. The young guy got in because he was good at practice. Arkansas got up early vs TAMU and held on to dear life with only a FG in the last almost 3 full quarters.

I can easily see LSU go anywhere from 7-5 to 9-3. This is no longer a dire situation, and we've only taken steps forward. If somehow we get a semblance of a damn run game, we'll be alright.

The fate of our season rests on the backs of our o line, who are our worst unit by far.

That scares me.

You’re greatly underestimating Florida

Very scary indeed. Worst group we’ve had in a long time in my opinion. That unit needs a shake up or something my god someone needs to step up in a big way or we are gonna struggle..

Everybody except Bama has glaring holes. And Bama is vulnerable to the run. Unfortunately that's not our strength, but still.

Jones is an ok runner but Richardson is downright scary. Watch he'll return just in time for the matchup with LSU.

They have secondary issues too. Emory Jones is not a great passer otherwise he could have taken advantage of some opportunities downfield that were there that game.

We haven’t stopped the run, we haven’t run the ball and our pass blocking is shaky. We must improve on the lines or it will be a long season..

I’m confident we can get to 5-1. We should beat Auburn at home next week and we should beat Kentucky. After that it’s going to be a gauntlet. Ole Miss is really good and can score with anyone. Bama is Bama. Arkansas has there best team in forever and is tough on both sides of the ball. Florida is good and probably a Top 5 team. A&M offense is bad but their defense is good especially up front. If we want a chance at going 9-3 and having a shot at 10 win season in a bowl game the offensive line is going to have to drastically improve and we’re gonna have to be able to run the football. Also need the linebackers to be better they’re the weakest unit on the defense.

This. I don't think we've seen a complete game from them yet.

They didn't really hit top gear against FAU, Bama, and Tennessee until the 2nd half of those games. That tells me their coaches know what adjustments to make, and they'll continue to improve throughout the season.

I've watched every one of Florida's games. As long as Anthony Richardson isn't playing, we can win at home. When I watch UF they play like a better UCLA. I think we've come a long way since UCLA (that was a bad game for us).

Developing a good rotation at RB is key for the rest of the season. Price can not be starting nor taking carries away from more capable backs. Hopefully Emery is cleared by next week.

It would certainly help if OL players like Dumervil and Bradford started showing us why they were so highly regarded.

The offensive line must get better.
