LSU has reached the plug-n-play status... they've been good for so long(right at a decade) and always have top 5 to 10 recruiting classes that people just automatically assume they'll be in contention for the SEC and eventually the BCS.
It's similar (although on a smaller scale) to what USC had going on.... granted, they ended up being mostly hype at the end. I'm not saying that's what will happen to LSU, but it's a possibility.

This. Once you've earned peoples respect you get the benefit of the preseason doubt to prove yourself. Do I nescessarily agree they are top 5? With George Jefferson at qb that's a pretty tall order given his past performances. However, given the teams past performances I can certainly see how they are getting the preseason love.
