Ole Miss has an easy arse schedule. LSU by far has the hardest conference schedule between Ole Miss and Bama.

ole miss clearly has the easiest path but LSU plays pretty well in oxford. Then nutt is good for a loss to a lesser team like arky or vandy. ole miss will pull a ole miss and find a way to not get to the atl

i think this team has the potential to be very good. we return so many key players... i have no doubt the team has the talent and potential to get to atlanta, but the big question is how will this team handle the hype? i know a lot of people say Houston Nutt's teams flopped under pressure, but i think it has more to do with the players themselves than the one head coach... so most of it will depend on how the players as individuals handle the hype. im sure Nutt is saying all the right things to try to get this team not to worry about the hype... i think it all comes down to the personality of this team.... we could either be a team that fails to play with intensity and loses 3-4 games... or we could be a team that is eager for more than last year and makes it to atl...
the entire coaching staff makes a difference as well... so i hope that it isnt just that Houston Nutt's philosophy when it comes to dealing with hype is simply flawed... i hope this whole staff can get the players thinking with the right mentality...
so basically, IMO, we have the tools to be a top 10 team.. its going to boil down to how we deal with the pressure

ours is the hardest bc of uf.
the road games are pretty tough as well but lately we have played good at bama and ole miss.
also we get uga at a pretty good time esp with them trying to replace some pretty good guys.
The west should be fun next year.

I agree. It's much harder to live up to the hype than to creep up on people like Ole Miss did last year. That's why I'm thrilled most pubs have LSU ranked between 10-15. Last year, we were coming off a NC, had major issues at QB, and had to replace our D coordinator trying to live up to a top 5 billing.

yeah i think LSU will have a much better season this year. think Jefferson will be a pretty good QB and the ranking will take a little bit of pressure off. charles scott is a beast too. i think the west will come down to the LSU vs. Ole Miss game. winner takes it.
unless OM just totally folds under the pressure and crushes my soul... being an ole miss fan all my life has taught me to expect this.

That's pretty much the stance I take on the Saints. Every year, I expect big things. Every year, they crush me. I'm expecting 11 wins this year and a division title. Maybe I need to get checked into the crazy hospital.

Houston Nutt has you people in Missdom under some mass hallucinogen. Reality is about to bitch slap your entire fan base and its going to so fun to watch. Nutt's game management skill set alone snatches defeat from the jaws of victory on at least 2 occasions a year so you guys are good for 4 to 5 losses.
fricking Arkansas fans!

No I don't. I've got every reason to think Ole Miss wins the West next year. So I'm going to hold onto to that until Nutt fricks it up.
