re: I think LSU will still compete in the west

Of course LSU can compete - they've got enormous talent, one of the best groups in college football. The problem is Les Miles. If I was an LSU fan, and I'm not, I'd be disgusted with the waste of talent by Les. The roster is full of 3*,4*, and 5* players playing like they're in a pick up game - no discipline, no tactical game plan, no comprehensive strategy. LSU is truly a waste of talent under Miles. This doesn't mean they can't beat very good teams. Any team with the talent LSU has can beat anybody if a few breaks go their way. I don't like to watch LSU because they play to Miles retarded football IQ. LSU only lost by 10 but they never gave Florida a scare of any kind - they were predictable and presented zero offensive surprises or adjustments. Miles says this is his best offensive line. If that's the case I'd be very worried if I was an LSU fan, which I'm not.
