Same guys who predicted LSU in the natty and Jeremy Johnson to win the Heisman.

No, we were considered a young, up and coming darkhorse.

VOLS are without a doubt a legit contender now

You should at least wait until the season ends to declare an offseason champion.

Did the same guy predict the 4-year cycle or was that someone else?

A bowl win versus a top 20 school and 2 almost wins in the 2015 season, doesn't make a team a legit contender

why do you continue to pretend that anone expected us to win a national championship in any of the last 5 years? It just simply didnt happen, however lsu fans were thinking they were the best team in the country earlier this year, then they got throat stomped by bama, arkansas and ole miss and came floating back to reality.

I've already seen a myriad of posts putting LSU as the team right behind Bama...seems that would make them a contender.

I don't know what you've specifically said, user Finch.

Look at Oklahoma in 2014. Some close losses to good teams. Look at Oklahoma in 2015. Did pretty well right?

Northwestern was ranked 13th. We beat them by almost 40 points

All we can do is play the games on the schedule

Some posters just cannot accept the fact that VOLS are well on their way back up the totem pole of college football's elite.

The rumors of Tennessee football's death were greatly exaggerated imo

I think until someone knocks them off it is all Bama on top. After a large gap it is Ole Miss and LSU in the 2nd tier. Tennessee is in the third tier with Arkansas and UF.

Why is LSU in the 2nd tier and UT not? 9-3 with a Texas bowl blowout vs 9-4 with a outback bowl blowout. Such homerism.

VOLS will be better than the Tigers from the bayou. Blee dat



Vols should have been better this year.

Hurd>Fournette; Dobbs > Harris; LSU Played in the tougher division; LSU played one less body bag game; same number of wins.

All with no quarterback and a coach that should have been fired by the end of the season.
