re: Way too early preseason top 5

There is absolutely no reason to put LSU in the top 5 next year.

Majority of contributors on offense are coming back with another year experience including one of the best running backs in the country. The same with the defense with a better d coordinator especially if Beckwith comes back. Top three recruiting class with immediate contributors on it.

Not saying I would put them there yet and can certainly see why people wouldn't, but there are reasons to why people will put them there especially since Mel Kiper usually does his top teams by NFL players.
