You got one thing wrong (LSU was highly ranked in 07 and 11), though the point is valid. LSU does play better when expectations are low, we've always enjoyed being the underdog. This could be one of those years where we lose maybe only 2 games, though NC is a little too much to ask for. (but the LSU fan in me still believes)

There is little evidence for this. Aside from 2003 (which was not a Les Miles team), point me toward some evidence that LSU plays better when expected to lose.
The only possibility I see is 2009, and we were OK. We went 9-3 but came really close to being 6-6.
