re: Top SEC OOC games this year?

7-8 is about right, leaning 8-9...pretty confident. It's hard to imagine a significantly more talented and speedy LSU team losing to Wisconsin on turf in a dome, in front of a practical home crowd.

Could it happen? Certainly. Wisconsin is no slouch and is a capable team, but given our non-conference successes over the years and considering we've had 8 months to prepare, the better team will likely win, and the better, more talented team is LSU.

But LSU has a huge question mark/unknown at QB either way, so anything is possible. Would I be shocked if Wisconsin wins? No, but I would be very, very surprised. I think most LSU fans feel similarly.

I think the new QB fears are eased and mitigated a bit, as most feel camCameron is as good an OC as there is, and he'll likely make whatever he's got work...he's just too knowledgable and experienced to field an incompetent offense. I feel LSU finally has the coordinator pieces in place to consistently have balance...a great defense and finally a capable/productive offense to go with it.

I'm certainly an LSU homer, but I think LSU is going to be really really good these next 3 years....back to 2011 form.
