Serious question, why is LSU in the top part?
Bama is going to be mediocre and has to go to LSU

Oklahoma has to go to LSU

LSU gets a bye before Ole Miss, and Ole Miss has to go to LSU after playing 2 straight SEC games (one on the road)

UCLA goes to LSU


Napier might be fired before we go to the swamp.

@ Arkansas in rebuild year
@ TAMU in rebuild year

Just assembled the greatest defensive staff in CFB. Our new DC made Mizzou's defense jump 60 spots in one year. Texas fans and media credit their former DL coach, now our DL coach, as one of the biggest parts of their turnaround.


QB Nuss has a cannon and is a 4th year player (no true freshman or redshirt freshman here). He has the best OL in the country with 3 receivers that had at least 500 receiving yards last year, and a veteran TE. Paired with 2 elite talented RBs and the best blocking RB in the country.

I just look at the bowl game against Wisconsin and see that the players that performed in that game well are all coming back beside Brian Thomas. The offense was just as effective as last year from the second quarter on. The defense will be better without a doubt. That in itself is enough to have a great shot at a 12 team playoff

We get all our tough games at home. Have y’all seen our record at home recently?

Mizzou made the jump mostly due to the transfer portal on defense.

If Sankey can clean up the SEC officiating bias, it will come down to which teams end up with 2 or less losses.

I'm predicting that the SEC will qualify four teams.

Georgia 11-1
Tennessee 10-2
Oklahoma 10-2
Texas 10-2

Alabama 9-3
LSU 9-3
Ole Miss 9-3
Missouri 8-4

Kentucky 7-5
Etc...

This is based on TN beating NC State and Ole Miss losing to Georgia, Oklahoma and LSU.

Since 1981, LSU is 4-17-1 against Alabama in games played in the state of Louisiana. All time it is just slightly better at 9-29-4.
