It continually puzzles me why people think LSU will be a contender this year.

It puzzles you that people would think a team that has either won or been co-division champions 6 times in the past 15 years is a contender? Says a lot about how easily your are puzzled.

It reminds me a lot of the South Carolina pumping last year when all you had to do was look and you'd see it wasn't going to happen.


Comparing S. Car. to LSU.....you really are continually puzzled.

There are quite a few parallels whether you want to admit or not. The major difference being that SC was really good the prior year.

LSU has some players, no doubt. However, they look like they'll be incredibly deficient at the two most important spots on the field. The defense should be pretty good, like last year, but without the ability to create disruptive plays it won't be good enough to carry them, like last year.

On offense, LSU has truly great, NFL caliber players at the skill positions. Fournette is the most talented offensive player in the conference imo, and your WR are both Sunday players but it's going to be hard for any of them to make an impact with poor QB play. Teams won't respect your passing game and Fournette won't be able to be what he's capable of being with teams keying on him.

I just don't see how all of that adds up to conference title contenders.
