What's the feeling around Baton Rouge about the new coach and expectations for this season?

I was looking forward to this season for the Cats in year two of Billy G's tenure but the loss to the VMI Keydets was shocking and embarassing last night. I hope it isn't a foreshadowing of the rest of the season.

LSU should be the favorite next year - they get the tough games at home except Bama and UGA. I think Auburn will be vastly improved, but they have to play at TS which hasn't boded well for them in the past. Then again, you all finally broke the road team losing streak so maybe they'll get one there next year.

Alabama won't be likely to repeat as West champs. Saban never made it back to back years at LSU and it isn't looking like he'll have the QB to do it next year. QB play will cost him at least two big games next year, just enough to keep them out of it.

Ole Miss is the dark horse. If they can win some of the close games they lost this year, Nutt might take the Rebs to their first ever SECCG.

Arkansas is a work in progress and it ain't happening in year 2 for Petrino. Mississippi State won't win the west, but they'll probably beat a few teams they shouldn't and might go bowling.
