Donte Jackson the sparingly used dime back. If he is an experienced player, then every team in the conference has talented and experienced players. Therein lies the problem. LSU might have talent and experience, but no more than Georgia, Florida, Tennesee, and Ole Miss, and certainly not more than Alabama

I'm not sure why he would include a true freshman and leave off Dwayne Thomas, Ed Paris and Ricky Jefferson.
ETA: I'm assuming he meant Kevin Toliver rather than Savion Smith. He also left off Frank Herron and Tashawn Bower.

Don't forget Tommy Clapp. Unless that's some nickname his name is Will Clapp.

Say all of this again in a French accent.

Got me! I always get he and Tolliver mixed up. Tolliver is who I meant.

Disagree with you on this one. It would be like me saying Minkah Fitzpatrick is not a proven stud. He is. So is Donte.

Donte Jackson the sparingly used dime back had a better statline in '15 than all but three of the bama DBs on their '16 roster.
If bama has the top secondary in the country like a good bit of their fans proclaim how is it that LSU's #6 DB had better numbers than all but three of their DBs?
LSU returns more experience and production along the Dline and the secondary than bama. Simple fact. Tigers even return more production at the LB positions than the tide.

That's debatable.
Here are the 5-year recruiting ranking averages from 24/7:
UA - 1.2
LSU - 5.2
UGA - 9
AU - 9.2
UF - 10.8
A&M - 11
UT - 14
MS - 16.6
Clearly Alabama is stacked. LSU, however, is pretty much alone at about 5, with everyone else bunched up in the 9-11 range.
And the mass exodus of underclassmen for LSU back in 2012 was 4 years ago. They have re-loaded.
It wouldn't surprise me to see LSU go 11-1 with a loss to Bama, but Bama having two losses to maybe UT and USC/AR/OM. I'm not predicting it, but it wouldn't surprise me.
