Everyone expects us to be trash. We can't really be overrated at this point.

I think we're right about where we should be quite honestly.

For a 5-7 team? Yes, yes it is.

How is LSU overrated when pretty much everyone picks us to go 7-5 at the best and we are sitting outside every top 25 or right at 25


This is my question exactly.

LSU 7-5 or 6-6. LSU has to many unknowns. LSU doesn't have a QB. They might miss a bowl game


LSU is overrated, How?

Because you're looking at a team where 7-5 is the ceiling. If O goes 8-4 with this team he probably needs an extension.
When you are having to play tOSU's 3rd string qb that means you've feel behind teams like Ohio State to a point where you aren't competitive with teams in the upper crust of college football. I know, Cardele Jones, yea, but first, that was a college football anomaly. We may never see that again. That just doesn't happen. 2nd, Cardele had won some big games for the Buckeyes. It wasn't like he was a total unknown. Jones was talented enough to where Urban could set an offense for him. Burrow was so lacking that Meyer simply couldn't find anything that would work for him.

I think USCe is in a pretty good spot due to the division they play in. I don't think they are underrated but I can see where UT having a first a year coach, Florida's program in the toilet and teams like UK and Vandy being UK and Vandy they could win some games.

The most underrated team in the SEC is Mizzou. I really believe the Mizzou Georgia game decides the east.

Congrats. State finally won one in what is an embarrassingly one-sided series.

73-35.

Here's to you hoping State will get two more wins over LSU in the next twenty years.

If championships is built around the defense, I find it hard to overlook LSU. There is just too much talent everywhere. However, their offense is a bigger mystery than recent past. I think they will be very good and may only end up with 3 losses at most.

Are we? You know something we don't know, Nostradamus? This LSU team is a huge question mark, no doubt, but no one, not LSU fans and especially not you, knows what the ceiling is.

This team could do anything between 5-7 or 10-2, but coming out and definitively saying the ceiling is 7-5 is pretty comical.

Not taking into account schedules, I think LSU and USC are a lot more similar than people think, so LSU at 25 and USC at 26 is fair IMO.
