TS up to his old antics!
I mean, I did post both the offense and defense predictions.
If I was trolling I would have only posted this one.

Tulane? Northwestern? Western Michigan?
Was 13-25 decided by luck of the draw?

Predicting a ranking is a fool's errand. Plus, Georgia's defensive stats in 2016 were probably over rated because we didn't face a lot of good offensive teams. But, if key players stay healthy, Georgia's 2017 defense has the "potential" to be very good, even top five.
I say potential, because we need some sophomores to build on what they showed as true freshmen. Guys like David Marshall, who really surprised me with how well he played. And Julian Rochester and Tyler Clark, who played way better than you can expect from true freshmen. And Tyrique McGhee, who has the physical skills to be one of our best corners in recent memory.
Combine that with a three or four prime recruits, and a lot of talented and experienced 3rd and 4th year players who are coming into their prime, and Georgia has the depth and talent to field our best defense in a while. I just hope Kirby Smart turns them loose, instead of playing the relatively non-aggressive brand of D we saw last year.

You give such irrefutable evidence to support your claim that you've fully convinced me and the entire Bulldawg Nation.

I'm pretty damned surprised that Auburn is nowhere on the list after their success in 2016.
Replacing Carl Lawson and Montravius Adams will be tough, but a lot of starters and rotational players returned.

I didnt read the methodology behind that garbage. How do they justify Western Michigan, NC State, App State etc having better defenses than Auburn and LSU?

You are hot garbage as.a poster. Either put your money where your mouth is or gtfo here with your bullshite. I will bet any amount of money LSU finishes the season with a top 10 defense

Also 2 young five stars (Marlon Davidson and Derrick Brown) with experience rotating in to replace the 2 outgoing 5* guys.

So Alabama lost 7/11 starters (I know Jackson was hurt the 2nd half of the season) on defense
I see what you're saying but when has what they lose in the draft/graduation really mattered?

Lsu should be somewhere between 28 and 3
