I’m freaking pumped to watch Weeks and Perk play together. Optimistic for solan to get our playmakers in space to utilize their speed.
I think this team will be lots of fun to watch!!!

We have some proven talent with lots of experience. I’m intrigued by these transfers.

I’m hoping to see an impact from DE J.Pyburn uF transfer. Heard he’s just some nasty sumbich, plays hard and gets after qb.

How bout yall.

Im so pumped for this opener. LFG

Cheers

Want to see how the new DEs replace Swinson’s production. The two deep of Pyrburn, payton, reliford, and butler should be pretty stout. We’ll see how how they fare.

One of Barion Brown of Zavion Thomas is going to house a kick or punt return and that’s going to end up the difference in the game. LSU by a TD.

I think we end up talking about how huge the Spring Portal window was for us. Adding AJ Haulcy and Bernard Gooden.

There's A LOT of buzz about Bernard Gooden. Practice reports are making him sound like the next Laroi Glover.

Jelani. I know we have returner, good ones at that, but i want to see his speed on display one way or another.

Not having Ryan or Burns. Our defense improved overnight

I think defense will be Pyburn. I think people all expect Gooden to make some plays, I think people are still sleeping on Pyburn.

Offense will be Kyle Parker. We have so many talented WRs, i feel like he's talked about by fans the least, but people that see the practices keep talking him up.

I expect both those guys to make a surprising impact from the jump.

I am going out on a limb and say PJ Woodland.

Probably is the best cover guy.He is just small and lacks fundamentals with his hands.

I’ll give you a random one.

Chadwick.

It’ll be nice to see some punts over 35 yards this season.

Ramos

He’ll hit a career-long FG for the win

And cuz I feel like y’all took all the good ones.

Others receiving votes:

Caden Durham goes nuts and reminds us that he’s a bad MF when healthy.

Zavion lines up all over the place and has a monster all purpose game. RB/ WR screens are back!

I think we'll be shocked at how good the true freshman Carius Carne is going to be. A true freshman starting on the OL of an SEC school is the stuff greats are made of.

With a lot of focus on our new DE's and Perkins returning, I would not be surprised to hear big Dom McKinley have an impactful game. Hold the line in the middle by stuffing the run and knifing through to be consistently disruptive to force Klubnik out of the pocket into our pass rush.

For me, it’s Pyburn on def. And Nic Anderson on offense

Pyburn doesn’t get after the QB. In fact, that’s his biggest weakness and why he transferred. He wanted to go somewhere that would allow him to play on 3rd down more. He’s a terrific run defender and tone setter. This defense has had the nastiest attitude recently. He’ll bring that.

I think Sharp will be a surprise. Green will be the main target, as he should, but Sharp does a lot of things well. I wouldn’t be surprised to see LSU go with 2 TE sets a good bit because they can allow Green to play a de facto WR spot
