You are the first LSU poster to ever say we are better than last year...
What is your basis other than our ranking?

From what I've seen, the o-line is improved, Wilson is less inclined to force a bad throw than Mallet, and the defense just appears to be a bit stouter than last year IMO. The irony is, LSU's improvements virtually mirror those of the Hawgs; Much-improved o-line(in spite of losing a 3-year starter for the whole season), more consistant QB play, (only 3 picks, 2nd in efficiency) and a stouter defense,(in spite of losing 4 starters to the pros, including the nations best defender). LSU's depth, as it has in every game this year, will likely be enough for the Tigers to prevail in a very good game in Death Valley.
