Most likely to fade in 2013? LSU, Texas A&M, Bama?

All 3 were 1-1 against each other last year. Who is most likely going 0-2 this year?

I'm on the fence between A&M (soph slump, pivotal player losses) and LSU (defensive losses & OC "?" marks). My gut says A&M, but my head says LSU. I just don't see Bama having a meltdown.

People NEVER mention this on this board. It's a pretty valid point.

This really isn't going to be a problem. Hell the guys we lost limped to the finish.

and LSU played and started the 2nd most freshmen in the country.

LSU will be better. Our offense UNDOUBTEDLY will be better and no matter who we lose on defense we are always VERY VERY good under Chavis. Our losses on defense are being wayyyyy overstated.

LSU reloads in the secondary every year. If anything I'm curious how our DL performs this year.

Yeah exactly. DL is a "problem". Secondary not so much.

and our freshmen and sophomores have more playing time than anyone else in the conference....hell, maybe the country.

this board doesn't seem to know that either.

LSU's secondary and LBs will NO DOUBT be better. Our Dline reloads every year and every year preseason people say we will hurt there. Mingo and Montgomery combined for just 10 sacks. I think we'll be ok with these recruiting classes we've had

I like where LSU is placed this year. Nobody is really expecting much. aTm has a Heisman winner and Bama is, well, Bama. We're in a really good position to "upset" some folks.

It's gonna be an interesting season.

LSU is the obvious answer.

And to answer, its easily A&M. Bama will be pissed and they play at Death Valley.

Manziel isn't sneaking up on anyone; they lost incredible LT, their only defensive star (poor recruiting before this year), and they're clutch (and talented as hell) WR.

I think they finish with 2 loses. To LSU and Bama.

A&M

JMO and sorry for any rustled jimmies. They will get the full attention of Alabama early in the season and then travel to Baton Rouge later in the year.

LSU might end up with a worse conference record though... the games @ UGA and vs Florida make that seem like a risk.
