WOW, have some faith in our still very young QB! Looks great to me for a kid who is still building his confidence.

"Poll Watching
My reaction to the latest polls and standings:

Overrated: LSU (AP: No. 9; coaches: No. 7)

Two games in, the Tigers have provided little indication of their anticipated return to heavyweight status. Last week the defense raised suspicion after allowing 478 yards to Washington. This week the offense was highly unimpressive against Vanderbilt, which trailed just 16-9 midway through the fourth quarter. LSU may be 2-0, but it's yet to look like a top 10 team."
You mentioned that you could win the College World Series winning 2 out of 3 games. How many teams in the last 10 years have lost a game (pre-championship game) in Omaha and still won the championship. Here is the answer...1 1 in 10 years!!! Wow, great argument.
The fact remains that GREAT teams show their dominace when tested and every other current top 15 team has more than 1 series sweep and we have none. In the post season there is no room for winning 2 out of 3!!!!!

I am not talking about what might happen in the post season. I am talking about justifying our current high ranking. Of course on paper it looks like we deserve it, but in realitly at this point in the season do we really deserve it? I see us as a current 15 to 20 ranked team.
Every other team in the top 15 has more that 1 sweep this year! Ok, so we won our SEC series so far, but can you honestly say that we have been dominate? Last night a sub-par instate school made our hitters look like high school players and this is by far not the first time this has happened. Please put your un-dying loyalty to LSU aside for a minute and look at the stats.
Seriously, we have not looked dominate in a single SEC series, granted we have some good wins? But do you actually believe the team right now is a top 5 team. Especially considering the consistent mid week losses to instate schools?
