This has been a long off-season but going to and winning in Omaha sure made the wait one to remember.

So, what will be our first home game with some decent weather? I am hoping by the October 14 Auburn game that we have much better temperatures (and no hurricanes). And also hoping that they don't move the September 23 Arkansas game up to a day game.

The September 3rd FSU Opener is 33 days away!

Geaux Tigers!!

I'm in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Our high on Sunday will be 66 with a low of 51. Should we play this weekend?

I wish the expectations weren’t so outlandish for this football team. We can’t expect a natty this year but the expectation is anything but that is a failure. We still have too many holes in secondary and on offense to compete. Will be a mediocre team this year but still fun to watch them go 500.

Besides 2019, name a better LSU offense on paper than this one.

Two words “running back”. We have running back by committee bc we don’t have one. Denial!!

Diggs, Emery, and Williams together are good enough for a championship.

That's forgetting Noah Cain, Goodwin, Tre Bradford, and Trey Holly.

Easy Homer! None were even a top ten back in the SEC last year. Emery was maybe close but 10 backs better than you in your own conference isnt championship talent.

Not worried.

Achane and Tank Bigsby were top 10 backs and their teams had losing seasons.

You're not being very positive, Paul.

I'd take 2023 in a close one.

Point being, they're in good company. It'll come down to injuries in the secondary.

In 2013 and 2017 our mid-October home game was hot as shite.

Just trying to be realistic that’s all. We are heading in a good direction but we are weak in many areas. Just being honest. I’ll change my name to honest Paul.

having elite RBs isn't nearly as important as it was 10-20 years ago. And besides, even a serviceable RB will do very well, if he has a good OL.

It's really more about the OL.

Fine but can you honestly say that we will be weaker than we were last year?
