This proves you have no clue what you’re spewing, you’re just trolling.

We’ve lost to Florida like 3 times since 2010. That includes the past 2 years when we were at our absolute worst. Giving Florida that L every year usually provides the team a spark for the rest of the season. I think there’s a saying that describes it best. Something like, “Death. Taxes. and LSU beating Florida and A&M”

He is a damn good coach. I am interested in seeing how long it takes him. I am not sure what the talent level is at LSU relevant to his system. You may see a drastic turnaround or it may take him a few years. That is what I am most interested in seeing.

Id be fine with 4 loses this season. I think 3-5 is reasonable.

The talent level is okay, experience level is average though and depth is going to be a problem at some positions.

Couple that with two new coordinators/systems and it'll be a 7-5 or 8-4 type season IMO.

this is a big factor fans never seem to factor in. If there are drastic changes, it may take a full season for players to fully comprehend what is going on.

Admittedly, tight end is an extremely weak position, and the offensive line has been crap. A couple of great transfers should help the line.

I mean, hopefully Kelly and Denbrock are good enough to do what they need to do with the pieces already on the board. We have a solid QB room and an underrated group of wide receivers.

I was wrong I am very sorry for my statement earlier where I misspoke. It was athlon not 247 sports. Athlon is where it said you were 11 out of 14 teams in the sec when it came to quarterbacks. Also the fact anyone would rank y’all’s current qb room top 5 in anything is laughable wtf was that guy smoking in the article you linked earlier?

You ask us how he’s gonna do but then tell us? But yea 10 win ceiling including bowl 7-10 wins is my expectation. Idk anyone out there who thinks we will beat bama and make the cfp year one…. We also gutted basically the entire staff just like a doctor removes a tumor so I’d say that coach o program mentality is gone



Coach O won a championship! Will Kelly be able to get LSU to beat a much-improved Ole Miss, MSU, Arkansas, and Texas A&M in the West division? Also, the HC has been with the team for at least 2 years. Kelly hasn't not coach LSU yet. Rarely a new HC would do well in his first year in the SEC.

Here’s a good article from 2011 talking about Kelly’s adaptive coaching style during his first 2 years at Notre Dame.

LINK

LSU might lose bad early on, but should be hitting all cylinders by November.

Predictions:

Lose opener vs Florida State.

LSU throttles Billy’s gang in Gainesville. Confidence in Kelly’s system starts upward trend.

Saban ages 2 years on November 5. One or two lucky turnovers and Tigers might pull off the upset.

Road games at Arkansas and Texas A&M in November will be closer than people expect. Tigers win one of these two.

I can absolutely see this, and I'd lose my mind anyway. We SHOULD beat them, but brand new coaches, game 1 neutral site, a lot of new starters.

No it's not. We won 6 games last year with fewer than 60 scholarship players and a fired coach.

You lost any bit of credibility you may have had with this take. You have no clue what you are talking about.
