re: In all honesty LSU fans, what has y'all excited this year?

Same thing every year
Just having college football back and not having to watch basketball anymore (sorry Kentucky)

But in response to your question having most of your starters returning is always a good start to get you excited for the next year doesn't always translate to more success but isn't a bad thing to have.

Road games to Florida Arkansas Auburn and Texas a and M.

Of course the last year we will see fournette in a tigers uni. Should be exciting
