@ Florida
vs. Auburn
@ Alabama

Really the only possible answer as an LSU fan.

1: UGA
We cannot keep losing to UGA, especially like last season.
2: Bama
Really don't need to elaborate on this one.
3: LSU
Orgeron will be looking to prove something this season, and we haven't played well in tDeath Valley in a long time.



I would list Clemson, but with all they lost I think AU fricks them right in their stupid, mouth breathing faces. frick clemson.

Florida State- very good quarterback and Jimbo knows how to coach him. Their offense will be dynamic.

LSU- freak athletes everywhere. Aranda is the man and Coach O is going to prove a lot of people wrong.

Auburn- enough said.

are you courting CarolinaGirl?

I think she is already taken...

oh, and good list

I don't have Aub in my top 3; not because I don't take them seriously, but because the 3 I listed are more important to the psyche of my team

If this thread was about "what team has the best chance to beat you" - Aub would absolutely replace GA Tech

but a loss to GA Tech would be more "devatating" to us (and Kirby) than a loss to Aub

I'm not going to,waste my breath on Bama because we haven't beaten them in a decade.

1. A&M - we shite the bed in this game every. single. year and have pissed away a lead in the last three. Bert just can't seem to get over the hump against Sumlin regardless of whatever self-inflicted QB controversy they undergo.

2. Auburn - Gus has this game circled every year, and our players flat out quit last year.

3. LSU - they're extremely talented and the game is in DV.

That was the thing with the 2011 defense. They'd let a team score on the first drive of the game but would slowly constrict their offense until they could no longer move.

Ole Miss went 72 yards on that first drive. They gained only 69 more yards after that first drive.

In Order:

Bama- I think they surprise people this year.
LSU- On the road.
Clemson- On the road.

I think UGA at home will be a revenge game and Auburn wins by 10 pts.

I'm reading this as "what games could be traps for your team" and not "which games will be the hardest"


therefore,

1. @ Ole Miss

Last game before the BYE week and subsequently bama after a long 7 game stretch. Tigers could shite themselves like they did the last two times in Oxford against a team with nothing to lose.

2. BYU

The mormons can be tough and the team could be flat for some reason

3. @ Mississippi State

Fitzgerald will probably be good and playing at the Islamic State is always rough with clanga clanga

ETA: As for which teams should be the toughest that LSU will face:

1. @ Alabama

no comment

2. @ Florida

the rivalry is back. gayters are always tough at the swamp

3. Auburn

they havent won in DV in forever but they have a second string defense that is better than half the SEC's first team. they could be scary

1. Alabama - The gumps are the team to beat.
2. Florida - At the swamp
#3 is questionable...Ole Miss=their bowl game, Aubbie at home, or even Moo St. away but:
3. Tennessee- At Neyland is my choice. We will probably be the victim of some shite call.

I have no idea what to think of that game, mostly because I have no idea what to think of our team.

Kelly has lost me and a chunk of our fanbase for good, but I'll give the guy credit and say he made two good coordinator hires in the offseason, so who really knows. I think UGA should have been favored in the initial line.

We've got a ton of talent on offense; I really like what I've seen from Wimbush; and our offensive line should, in theory, be one of the better groups in the country. On the other hand, we have holes everywhere on defense, especially on the DL and at safety.

Kelly's Notre Dame teams have all followed a pretty similar pattern: they are never quite as good as they appeared (2012, 2015) or never quite as bad they appeared (2011, 2013, 2016). Supposedly, we weren't nearly as bad as our record suggested last year (only game we lost by more than a TD was USC), and advanced metrics supported that. We always have a pretty good amount of talent - we were 5th in the country in NFL picks under Kelly's tenure until this last draft when we dropped down to 9th or 10th (and I believe you guys were one of the programs that passed us) - but we can never seem to put our foot on opponents' throats. Like clockwork, we lose at least one game we have no business losing and then will have at least one game where we go out and handle a really good team with ease - it's been like that almost every year.

I'll say that it will be a tight game pretty much the entire game and then Kelly will make a boneheaded decision late in the 4th, and you guys will pull it out by a FG or so.

It's a mutual hatred. Most Clemson fans look at Aubrun like Scar, you are little brother in your state and have been a joke recently. You did have a nice run the year you bought Cam and Nick Fairly, and the year you had all the kicked-out-kids was nice, but since then has just been funny to watch y'all.

Clemson has been a joke its entire existence, up until the last few years. You'll return to the bottom sooner rather than later.

That's not nice to say about your daddy! Your entire school is a poor man's copied version of Auburn.


Meetings total
50

All-time series
Auburn leads, 34–14–2

Largest victory
Auburn, 56–0 (1921)

Longest win streak
Auburn 14, (1952–2010)


You're lucky Gus went full retard last year. And even then, you barely escaped. This year you're going to be put back in your place.


Now to answer the OP:

1. UGA
2. Bama
3. LSU

I know, at this point everyone is is thinking 15-0 SHIP! (right Aubs?)

But in you heart of hearts, you have to be worried about a couple of teams that could sneak up on you, even Bamers...

For me:

1. Florida - it's always Florida, we aren't still stuck in the agonizing run from the 90's - but this is still the game I am most concerned with every year

2. Norte Dame - everyone thinks that we should win, but they are not a "cupboard bare" program by any stretch, losing early could sure take the wind out of our sails...

3. GA Tech - godam nerds beat us last year, not saying this is a "hot seat" game for Kirby, but we really need to reestablish dominance in state



For future reference, when you're trying to troll Auburn fans by not putting them on your list, you probably shouldn't mention them twice in the first 30 words of your post
