Compared to other 1 loss teams, was it really a surprise that we loss to Arky? I would like to hear constructive criticism from fans of other teams. I think it will paint a better perspective about what is wrong with this team. Is it the QB, coaching, the defense, or a combination? Please do not just flame.

We will be where we belong now...in the lower teens.

So yes...at 5, we were overrated.

Not really

The SEC West was just really really strong this year

AU is probably the best team in the country and I'd say that LSU, Bama, and Arkansas are all probably about the same quality and are all about in the 8-12 best teams nationally.

No, LSU was a stud QB away from playing for the NC this year IMO.

Yes, at 5 LSU was overrated. Your athletes are second to none, but your qb and coach are not top 5 IMO. Great game, as expected! I'm hoping that our game develops into a nice rivalry game over the years.

So all week you guys were the best team in the country outside of Auburn and Arkansas should have just rolled over and hand you the win and now you are overrated?

honestly I can find serious deficiencies with every cfb team this yr in the sec. Yalls defense is good but this was not anything like that 2003 defense. Auburns defense is not NC calibur either. If they get behind Oregon by 24 they will not catch them.

no.

Hatcher was the worst starter on the field and I don't understand why he plays.


Miles should have taken a timeout when it was clear LSU's defense was tired and was getting hammered as a result.

Jefferson played like garbage yet again. He plays Qb with the intelligence of a 13 year old.

Arky is underrated.

I said a couple of weeks ago whoever the home team is would win. I think LSU and Arky are both legit top ten teams.

LSU might have been overrated at 5, but not by much. LSU is probably the 6-10th best team in the country. Seriously. Peterson is a beast. You guys are coached extremely well on defense. LSU simply doesn't miss tackles. The D-line did seem to get pushed around at the end of the game, though.

On offense, LSU is a little inconsistent, but has the ability to put up points. I think Jefferson needs to look to pass more often when he gets out of the pocket. The running back (Bradley?, can't remember) is extremely tough to tackle. The O-line could use some improvement, but is decent.

Overall, LSU is a really good team. Whichever bowl you guys wind up in, I doubt you will face a team that can beat you.
