Will get berated by delusional LSU fans for this but here’s my prediction for 2018 season:

Miami - L
SE Louisiana - W
at Auburn - L
LA Tech - W
Ole Miss - W
at Florida - L
Georgia - L
Mississippi St - W
Alabama - L
at Arkansas - L
Rice - W
at Texas A&M - W

6-6 and could easily see that turning into 5-7.
Hope I’m wrong but just being realistic here.

- O is not a good head coach. I liked him as a d line coach and recruiter but he chokes under pressure as head coach.
I predict there will be multiple times where he will face criticism this year and completely throw others under the bus.
- Ensminger has not been a full time OC for 20 years
- We don’t have a QB
- We don’t have a RB
- Our receivers are avg at best
- Our O line is avg/below avg
+ Only bright spot will be our defense

LSU needs to clean house after this year.
- President F. King Alexander
- AD Joe Alleva
- Ed O
- Ensminger
All of them need to go.

All of your Ls seem reasonable/logical, but I do not see how we lose to Arkansas unless the wheels come off totally.

I'd also move Miami, Florida, and State to toss-ups. But I'd be lying if I said I have confidence in the UGA, AU, and Bama games. I put LSU at about 70% chance of loss in those.

All of these are false. We absolutely have talent at all of these positions. In fact, we have more talent than every team at these positions we face this year except 2 teams. Bama and UGA.

I won't berate you, but that seems a bit pessimistic.

Lemme try:

Miami - W
SE Louisiana - W
at Auburn - L
LA Tech - W
Ole Miss - W
at Florida - W
Georgia - L
Mississippi St - W
Alabama - L
at Arkansas - W
Rice - W
at Texas A&M - W

9-3 seems reasonable to expect, imo.

I don't know where you're getting this, but one of the things the NC is directly responsible for is clock management. Maybe you haven't watched any LSU games since Miles left, but O has GREATLY improved clock management from the sideline. Time management is also a good indicator of how a coach operates under pressure.

So? Canada was an OC the season before LSU hired him.

- We don’t have a RB

Now you're just being pissy. LSU currently has 5 QBs and 6 RBs on campus, with another QB walking on.

LSU's Giles named to Biletnikoff Award Watch List

Miami W (the U was exposed their last 3 games)
SE LA W
@ Aub L
LA Tech W
Ole Miss W
@ FL W (Florida is finding their QB, they haven't found him yet
Georgia L (this could easily be a W)
Miss St W (home game)
Bama L
@ AR W
Rice W
@ A&M W

Miami lost their last 3 games after the level of competition stepped up. I'm not sold on FL rebounding that quickly, though Mullen was a good hire. They could beat UGA at home. I think they split their SEC East games. Bama will be a low scoring game, and A&M hasn't shown up for home games in a while. Now if they blow an easy game or two it could all fall apart, but they have equal or superior talent and depth against everyone but Bama and maybe UGA, both they get at home. They have equal talent with Auburn but they are on the rd. They have more talent than A&M, FL, MSU and Miami
