While Boom to Steele is a downgrade, I am not convinced Steele to Aranada is the upgrade you hope it will be.


Swamp kittens are insanely delusional. They all thought that Chavis to Steele was an upgrade simply because Brick Haley was gone. How wrong they were.

Aranda would have to be very mediocre for it not to be a great upgrade. Steele was pretty bad.

11-2/10-3 - Losses to 2/3 (Alabama, Arkansas, Ole Miss) and a Bowl Loss if 10-3

Curious, Alabama fans, why do you think LSU will beat y'all?

LSU returns 17

No they don't. They return 18.

I'm still not sold on BH

Remind me who your QB is again?

quote:

Auburn is upgrading at RB.

Do I even have to make the comparison?

quote:

OL is in effect a wash.

You are replacing both tackles and you lose a lot of your depth.

quote:

Auburn brings in a very talented group of wideouts which should be an instant upgrade at the easiest position to transition in college.

Except that LSU returns all of its most productive WRs and adds a few more to the mix?

quote:

LSU has a thinner DL and will be transitioning to a 3-4 which will leave them short of LB,

Do some research about Aranda's defense before posting authoritatively on the type of 3-4 he runs. LSU has plenty of LBs to run the scheme.

quote:

Auburn will be much improved in its front 7.

DL is going to be great. But you have to replace all of your LBs... wouldn't call that an improvement.

quote:

I also believe Auburn has a large advantage on ST.

No argument here. Our ST was hot garbage last year.

As I said before, the team you're returning half of was bad. You seem to have a rosier vision of your team in comparison to LSU's. Which is fine.
But don't cite returning talent as the rationale for your optimism.


To give you an idea of the disparity in returning experience, this guy put together a table assigning a percentage to how much actual experience each team returns this season.

LSU is at the top of the list... take a look at where Aubie lands.

Like 99%. You can't honestly look at yourself and say the consensus on this place was that LSU's defense would be worse. "Coach O over Haley" alone was supposed to make the swamp kitten defense back what it used to be. Lolz.

So stop saying all, because it's patently false.

Don't get butthurt because you know that you thought Chavis leaving was good for LSU. We all know you are one of the delusional swamp kittens.

Seriously, I doubt your team will get two consecutive lucky wins over Bama. No more deflected passes bouncing off helmets into open arms of streaking OM wr, in addition to 0 to 5 turnovers most of which were not caused by solid hits but uncharacteristic fumbles. Let's not forget who actually whipped who in that game...tip, look at the game stats again minus the turnovers. Yes, turnovers a part of the game, but 9 times out of 10 the strongest smash mouth team wins that game. I'm not being arrogant or cocky, and I admit that Bama too has won its fair share of games down thru the years with more than one lucky break. Cheers to a good game with no injuries.

However, you are convinced that an AU squad that was worse on both sides of the ball in 2015, and returns half the production, is going to be better than LSU.


The game is in Auburn and it is outlandish to think Auburn will not be improved on both sides of the ball.

This is where I am getting my numbers from. If it is wrong then, okay.
quote:

So LSU isn't upgrading at a position, gotcha.
quote:

quote: OL is in effect a wash. You are replacing both tackles and you lose a lot of your depth.

Besides the tackles and a guy who was constantly hurt, who are we losing. LSU is also returning 3 OL.
quote:

DL is going to be great. But you have to replace all of your LBs... wouldn't call that an improvement.

We only play 2 LB and one of which is returning. The other spot will be played by a GT. We are finally getting around to having big linebackers. McKenzie played more DE for us than a traditional LB last year.

I said where each team was returning talent not overall, I must not have made that abundantly clear before. Based purely off of recruiting LSU is a more talented team and that is inarguable but for all of the factors that ultimately decide a football game I feel like Auburn has a good chance to get a win. Hell I even said that was a game Auburn could easily lose but based on what I see it is a very winnable game.

Returning every RB on the roster is a upgrade from 2015. That's kind of how experience works.

RB is the spot on the field that experience matters the least. It is why we routinely see freshman come into the SEC and rush for 1,000 yds.

So returning every single RB from 2015 isn't an upgrade in 2016 now?

Like I said earlier, totally rational.

Arkansas has a lot of holes to fill, but quite a bit of talent coming back.

We could go 5-7 if things go bad, and probably top out at 10-2. Any better, and we would have needed to have invested in bag men, deer antler spray, helicopters, cocaine, and hostesses a couple of years ago.
