We all agree and have a want for the offense to score 30+ regularly with 300+ passing yards and 100+ rushing yards per game. No one is saying otherwise.

This board was full on split.
Half of us felt LSU could win 10 regular season games.
The anti-O faction were certain LSU was a 6 win team and would finish 5th or 6th in the SECW.
2019 looks to be favorable for LSU. And to finish this season with 10 or 11 wins would be a great way to enter ...

It would be like 2003 all over again. LSU would beat UGA again in a neutral field rematch, with the current UGA QB. If the started their freshman duel threat, he would be confused against LSU’s D and turn the ball over like J.Lee 2008...

Played on a neutral field these 4 would win (against this current team, not next years):
Alabama (5/5 games played)
Clemson (4/5 games played)
Nortre Dame (it would be a close game LSU should have won) (3/5 games played)
Michigan (2.5/5 games played)
Nortre Dame and Michigan are 50/50...

If it were to happen this season then yes it would be a big upset.
I don’t get what is keeping Paul Johnson from having a consistent 8-9 win team with the occasional 10 win season and playing in the ACCCG.
Don’t say it’s his offense, bc he has already proven he can win with that system. It’s t...

Thanksgiving Day 1999 I marched in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade as one of the team pulling the Snoopy balloon.
Snoopy was Macy’s holiday stuffed animal that year, and it was also Snoopy’s first year back in the parade. So we were the first big balloon of the parade.
At the end of the pa...
