We are 4-0, #5 in the country, and they are 2-2 and unranked. Does this bother anyone else?

Edit: ESPN FPI is the source.

Btw I did watch both of those games. I personally think Clemson is way overrated. Not saying we are better, but I would put us very similar. Hell Clemson was overrated last year as well. Bama on the other hand looks damn near invincible. DT QBs always give neck a lil trouble, so I think that made a difference. LSU has always shut down DT QBs 2 of which were Heisman winners.

This is just my humble opinion, which I will agree shouldn't mean much to anyone here,

BUT

Kyle field. The Clemson Game. Jimbo.

Well they almost (and some say should have) beat #2 Clemson at home.

They put up points on Bama's D on the road. If it weren't for the first drive interception, they may have held Bama to 0 points early and it could have been a closer game. Hard to play from behind 50seconds into a game.

Not saying I agree with the prediction, but here is some reasoning.

Their two losses are to two likely playoff teams, and they almost beat one of them. The game is at A&M. Our offense is unimpressive. Jimbo vs 0. Do you need more reasons?

aTm is a 8 or 9 win team and get LSU at home. Also, not everyone is sold that LSU is a top 10 team yet.

It's just based on some proprietary statistical modeling that someone made up. Why do you put so much stock in it is the real question?

We have the worst offense in big boy football, we are going on the road to a stadium where fans stay and cheer, they have a roster full of talent.
