re: LSU is a legit national title contender. ESPN has them 5th in the SEC right now

You can't "not be a contender now" but could be later... That makes no sense. If you don't think it's possible to contend now, then there's no way to think they can contend at a later date.

I know what you're saying, but you also know what we're saying. It's not expected that LSU will be contending for the title in Week 12. But it wouldn't be the biggest shock, either. So no, they're not a title contender. But could they gel during the year and work into contention? Sure, it's possible.
