Its a stupid argument.

A&M and LSU will both be good teams next year. How good is yet to be determined.

Its absurd for an Aggie to think we will have another succesful year but its pretty much blashpemy for a LSU to not?


What's your definition of a successful year? If LSU goes 10-2, with the losses coming from 2 of Florida, @Georgia, @Bama, and A&M, I think that's a pretty successful year.

Most of the Aggies here seem to think you'll roll over LSU in Baton Rouge. That's a little unreasonable.

We return more starters than you do and 34 of 44 on the 2 deep


Yeah, but wasn't it just earlier in this thread you said your WR corps was terrible? Are you returning all those guys? A&M's WRs are light years ahead, and your QB is who he is, I don't think I have to compare him to Manziel, and I have no idea who on your o-line returns, but we return arguably the best offensive lineman in the nation, and only have to replace two guys.

I get that, but let's just say your offense plays up to it's potential... what is that? 4th or 5th best in the SEC?

NOBDy is saying that. But when your LSU and you've had the success year in year out that we have had why WOULDN'T we expect to be right up there again???


Fair point, but it isn't like LSU faces THIS kind of schedule year in and year out, and has ever lost THIS many guys to the draft. If you don't see the possibility for regression, you're always going to be one step behind progression.

LSU fans aren't picking A&M to lose 4 or 5 games like some goofball Aggies are. Heaven forbid we think it's unlikely that a team returning fewer starters than us will have a hard time winning in Death Valley, a place where we have only lost a handful of times since Miles has been the coach

Truth. I don't know exactly how large our margin will be, and it would be unreasonable to be perfectly certain.

If both A&M and LSU lose to every top 25 team they play, A&M goes 11-1, and LSU goes 7-5(I pick A&M to win the head to head, since at that point, A&M will have had one loss and LSU will have had 4).

Ok, and? That's good enough for LSU.

Our 2011 schedule was at least as tough and we ran the table until the BCSCG.

and has ever lost THIS many guys to the draft


That number includes 2 third string backs, a punter, an olineman who didn't play last year and a dlineman who openly admitted to taking plays and games off. Not saying we don't needs to guys to step up n some spots but that is the case for us every single year.

We only use the 3TDs tag-line when we get a bunch of bullshite from sidewalks that know precisely dick about anything, much less football. It's the only way to deal with the unreasonable.

I might be a bit out of place saying this but i would consider 11-1 a succesful year. With our schedule this year the only two major hurdles I see are Bama and LSU. This of course assuming everyone from all the SEC teams stay healthy. Losing to both Bama and LSU would make for a disappointing year not a succesful one. 11-1 or I wont be satisfied. Maybe I am being a little too optimistic, but if we come to play every Saturday I dont think its too far fetched please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

There should be a marked improvement in the WR corps this season. RB is a question mark if Hill doesn't return, with Blue coming back from acl injury. O-line returns some experience.

Goddamnit, fawx. You're ruining the Aggie narrative.
