To me the only question marks we are going to have is at DT due to depth, but if we stay healthy should be okay there and then obviously QB. From the practice reports, the rest of the units look good and ready to go....even at WR. Peeps seem to forget John Diarse...I think he has a break out season and I love the trio of him, Dural and Dupre. If we have only half decent QB play, this team will win a lot of games.

LSU has as much talent as anyone so, yes, they are a national title contender.

The spread in talent is so thin at the top of the conference that the team picked 5th in the preseason could easily be a couple of bounces or breaks away from finishing first. There isn't a clear dominant team this year so it's not that unreasonable to lump the top 5 in as NC contenders.

This is true.

I like the schedule, I think we could make a run at Atlanta.

You say this like it's 1998.

It's 2014. SEC West Title = National Title.

LSU will contend next year

I thought this until I realized we'll be losing 3 or 4 offensive linemen after this year. Everywhere else looks stacked, but no year is perfect. If we're good enough to win it all in '15 or '16 we're good enough to win it this year. We don't even know what the team will look like in '16.
