I hate to say it but the LSU offense will regress some next season because there is no "Joe Burrow" out there right now. At least not on LSU's schedule. We will have to get better at other things to keep this pace of winning up.

Conventional wisdom says yes. I tend to think that our Defense continues to improve. We have Flott, Ward, Stingley, Harris, Hampton and Stevens returning in the Secondary. That is the entire unit.

Same at LB. With Clark, Baskerville and others coming on and improving. At OLB, Brooks and Starks come back, as does Chiasson at this point (he’s all athlete at theis point. Needs to become a technician and prove he can consistently set the edge IMO).

On the DL, we lose only Rashard Lawrence and Brieden Fehoko.

In my opinion we will be honestly and legitimately better on Defense.

On offense, you have a more talented depth chart than you have starter. Emery and Davis Price will be far more productive backs than CEH22 and that’s no slight to him. They’re just young.

At wideout, literally everyone comes back. Maybe we lose our boy Justin Jefferson. But JJ2 would easily be replaced by a Trey Palmer type. Oh & Stingley will play both ways next year also.

The OL returns everyone but Damian Lewis and Magee. But that opens up for Ed Ingram and Chasen Hines who both have legitimate starting experience in the SEC. We return both tackles. We lose Traore which is depth. But Dare Rosenthal comes back and will be first man up off the bench at either T spot.

At QB, I’m confident that the rest of the offense can rise to meet a softly regressing starter. Whether that’s Myles Brennan or...someone else. Which is as far as I’ll go there.

We aren’t going anywhere ladies. Not anytime soon.
