re: Does anyone actually believe FSU can beat LSU?

You must not be reading the LSU Message Boards. The Tiger fans are not super confident. On the contrary, the FSU fans are confident that they out-talent LSU at every position. Many FSU fans assert that they will win by multiple TDs. Frankly, as a Tiger fan, I just don't know. We have several new players who are young and will have to play their best. Our secondary hasn't played in a big game together. The NCAA screwed us with keeping Maason Smith out. So, who knows? Being only his second year, I'm not sure what BK will do. So, lots of Tiger fans aren't beating their chests and guaranteeing a win. We're hoping there's improvement and BK is the answer at HC. But this is only year 2. Of course, with that said, so far 2d year coaches at LSU have been DAMN impressive!
