Yeah because ed O has had them sleep walking in that game since he started. Amazing logic

We are #5 I demand we have respect

They played and should have beaten #2 and just lost to #1. It's the last game of the season. LSU will be favored if they beat bama and uga. If LSU loses those two games and one other you think LSU is the #5 team in the nation? It's also an away game for LSU.

Dude Auburn is a good team and so is Miami, but Bama is in a class by themselves. Believe we call them super elites....you know dynasty kind of elite. I want LSU to beat Bama. Personally I don't care if LSU loses every fricking game after Bama. I just want to shut up those gumps once and for all. Pardon me for thinking this, but right now with LSU's O/L woes I don't think we stand a chance against Saban's machine. But it appears nobody has much of a chance against them either. The only people who can prove me wrong, is those young men on that O/L wearing that LSU Logo on their helmets.

Just sayin.

2018 is the current season you bias is showing.

That’s an idiotic comparison and but 2013 is a lot more recent than 2000 and I would think more relevant

No one gives a shite about ESPN and their computer predictions. Except you apparently.

ESPN's FPI is flawed, that's why. Four or five years ago, I thought it was more accurate than it is now. They obviously changed their algorithm and input variables.
First, it's giving way too much weight to its own preseason rank, in which there were no numbers to input other than arbitrary opinion. Next, it gives a lot of weight to yards and yards per play, while either not accounting for garbage time or not taking garbage time into consideration until later in games than when a defensive team goes on cruise control.
I don't know why so many fans and writers are critical of LSU. It's pretty obvious to me that when the Tigers are up 24 in the 2nd quarter (that was our lead at some point in the 2nd quarter of 3 games), they feel comfortable resting the banged up guys and playing the young guys, while also not showing more of the playbook than they have to. Clearly, Coach O trusts the defense not to relinquish a 24 point lead in a half. And as for the offense, did we not see some new looks and plays that we didn't see in the first 2 games? I expect to see more new looks in future games where talent alone is not enough to win.

Since 2016 does not include 2016. Regardless, you are cherry picking Fisher's worst stretch to try to make him look bad.

If this guys wants to include 2016, fine...but considering it was a really good year, it's pretty dumb.
