I live in New Orleans and have an extensive amount of LSU-supporting friends and and family (because none of them went there amirite?). Long story short, I follow the Tigers very closely.

Has the fall to mediocrity been seen as fast and sudden or slow and steady?
You got yours, I got mine, meet the decline...

should our players wear belts, so as not to be pantsed?

Can we run on them?
Yes. Stay to the outside and make their linebackers beat your runningbacks to the sideline. That's how Mississippi State and Auburn did it, but, also, they have a great running QBs and their offense is built to run to the outside.
Y'all's run game is so powerful and they're coming off of a terribly physical game against Alabama, so sticking to your guns may work as well. It worked for Wisconsin, who ran the ball for 268 yards against LSU in Houston; however, this LSU team is a much different team than the one that lined up across from the Badgers that night. Wisconsin, too, gashed the Tigers off-tackle and made the LSU linebackers make plays, which, I believe, is the key to success against the LSU rush defense.
If you'd like to go play-action off of the run, which we know you do, keep in mind that the Tigers have incredible athletes in the secondary, more than the usual set of athletes they usually have back there.

In two or three years, the way their youngsters are playing, they'll have another one of "those" teams, make no mistake.

Why the date change from the Friday after TG? That sucks. Although we get you this season off a bye week after you played Bama.

I'm an Ole Miss guy, for the record.
A&M and LSU have big money oil boosters in their back pocket who wanted the game moved to the premier rivalry slot (after Thanksgiving), so the schools pressured the conference and . . . voila!
Money talks, not that y'all have a shortage.

You may be right.
I think Les has four good years left in him, and one more legitimate run at a national championship before he hangs up the hat.

How badly do you think the bitter cold will impact LSU? We are used to nasty winter weather more then them.

It will affect them, but not as much as the 2009 Capital One Bowl farce because the playing surface that day was atrocious and took away LSU's athleticism advantage. Y'all play on an artificial surface, if I recall correctly. While your players from more Northern regions will be used to the bitter conditions, it won't affect the LSU players that much.
Both teams' playing style lend themselves to success in sloppy conditions.
Recently, LSU has dominated Aggie and controlled the game against Auburn in sloppy conditions. However, neither of those rainy days had temperatures near the projected high temperature in Fayetteville of 36 degrees. The Auburn game was on a muggy night in September and the Aggie game was, although in November, played at a temperature around 60 degrees.

jennings isn't good from all accounts or isn't playing well now anyway- can we stop their o? sometimes our running d is pretty dang good but other times it can be shaky- how dominant is their running game?

That means this guy will do the complete opposite.

Take away the inside run, stop the LSU offense. Bottom line.
They do have excellent WRs who are great deep threats, but Jennings is horrendous. He is not a "great" runner, but he is an opportunistic runner and often picks up crucial third downs with his feet.
If Harris plays, he is a much better passer.
Again the key question is whether or not you can stop the inside run. If you can, LSU is turnover-prone. If not, they'll run all night and it will take a game-changing play or break to win the game.

Hmmm... good answers. OK. I've got one more. We all know Miles likes a stagnant offense, poor QB play, and running oddly timed kooky plays. What are the odds that he convinces LSU to splash the cash and hire Chaney away from us?

Very dominant. If you stop the inside run, you can win. Or if it snows. We have no idea what snow looks like. You win by default if that happens. We can't play in rain either.
