Les' tone this offseason says that he knows he's got a horse to win it all. I think that'll translate to him trusting in his team (particularly QB & WRs) with the playcalling.

I think I can speak for virtually all AU fans on tRant when I say that, no matter what our expectations for 2016 are, they will likely be almost completely wrong.
Honestly.

He's already moved the offense to predominantly 3 wide sets. We did so last season but had trouble executing in the short to intermediate passes. With a seasoned group of players, I expect the execution to improve. Les hasn't had a WR group this talented since when he first came to LSU.
FWIW, I'm not expecting LSU to avg. 300 yards a game through the air. If LSU gets more than 200, they are usually steamrolling their opponent.

11/12 wins. Lose 2/3 to Bama, Arky, or OM. NY6 bowl.

10-2 or 11-1
Depends on the QB. Talent around him to carry the team though. Excited about the defense though.

9-3 and be in the east race. The offense should be better this year especially at the end of the season and the defense should have a small drop off.

Honestly, I expect A&M to finish 15-0 national champions.

I think we're going to lose a stunner in Florida, bounce back with a hard win against the Rebels, but after that, I don't know.

My honest expectations are for the team to get to bowl eligiblity - 6-6 at worst, but hopefully end with a winning record.
The schedule is easy enough to help the team a bit:
AT Vanderbilt: Win
AT Mississippi State: Toss-up
VS East Carolina: Win
AT Kentucky: Win
VS Texas A&M: Toss-up
VS Georgia: Loss
BYE WK
VS Massachusetts: Win
VS Tennessee: Toss-up
VS Missouri: Win
AT Florida: Toss-up
VS Western Carolina: Win
AT Clemson: Loss
I can barely find opponents that I would say are clear losses, and not toss-up games for us. Opponents that have their own issues with personnel or coaching staffs. Opponents that we played closely last season even with our shite team - that we had a chance to beat even with a somewhat mediocre defense or a healthy, experienced QB.
Get to a bowl game, and then Coach Muschamp and staff will have something to build from...

Honestly, 12-0
LSU will be tough but one dimensional offenses will be slaughtered by the Tide defense. Ole Miss scares me some and so do USC, Tennessee and A&M iß liable to make a gàme of it. Of course Arkansas and Auburn might keep it cloßé,

I have UGA going 8-4 or 9-3, the opener vs UNC truly is a toss up. UGA could be missing up to 4 players in their front 7 rotation against Hood who is a future pro, Chubb is a question mark and will this be Eason's 1st start? I do think the dawgs can be back in Atl. as soon as Dec. of 2017, a lot of young talent on this squad.

Aggies will win more games than last year.
Posted on 4/24/16 at 12:49 am to Henjin
Fitting the upvote/downvote count is 9-6
Posted on 4/24/16 at 1:56 am to Henjin
11-1
Florida gets us in the swamp this year. We've beaten them 3 in a row...4 in a row will be tough for this rivalry
I swear to God if I have to sit through another bama heartbreak in tiger stadium...

I expect Clemson to be a player.
Why big on FSU?

I'm expecting Tennessee to win the East, LSU to win the West, and the winner of that one to move on to the Playoff where they'll play Michigan in the Final.

I'm done predicting AU. Useless.
