Is there a ?if? in college football every year that?s bigger than ?if LSU?s QB is any good...?? I will believe it when I see it. They also don?t have nearly the proven running game that they usually do and lost their best receiver from a year ago.Quote:

Davis and Sullivan are returning guys that didn't catch a lot of passes, but are talented guys. Marshall and chase are incoming 5-star guys. They will have talent outside. With that said, theyre not gonna be a contender. I do think that trip to Death Valley is gonna be a very tough win thoughQuote:

We return an entire starting Oline from a 9 win team that DOMINATED LSU and went toe to toe with Bama. Rankin might have been the "starter" at LT but he maybe played half the year. If we actually get a vertical passing game, that will just improve the run game even more.Quote:

Beginning of the year they certainly won’t be clicking.
They have one hell of a tough schedule. If O wins 8 IMO he did a hell of a job with that schedule.
That's exactly what I said......except "at best". We lose at BAMA and probably at home to either UF or Auburn. Would prefer Auburn beat us if I had a choice. Then a nice Citrus Bowl date vs Ohio State, Michigan, or Penn State.Quote:

O spent the entire game chewing on his offensive coaches asses!! I thought he was going to tackle the OL coach at one point he was so pissed!Quote:

This is my biggest issue with the grad transfer rule, it allows blue bloods to be propped up because inevitably the grad transfer will transfer to the blue blood that needs a starter at their position.
I'm still worried about Gump receivers being allowed to stop by the water cooler for a quick drink then run back onto the field for a reception, especially in Tusk-Town.Quote:
