Well ND is a special case also, remember they have certain deals worked out with BCS. Where if they finished ranked in certain area, a certain amount of wins, etc.
Plus you can never discount any team once it becomes game time. Ask Bama, Oklahoma about teams they were expected to roll in BCS games.

Well Notre Dame is at least headed in the right direction. They have some talented players from Charlie Weiss early recruiting classes.
I honestly could see them in Sugar Bowl this season with 11 wins.

re: Question About LSU Football, How To Beat LSU?
Posted by LSU Yellow Cab on 9/2/09 at 2:10 am
To beat LSU this season, Washington would have to take advantage of the secondary and our LB's. That would mean using the TE/WR over the middle and going for occassional deep ball.
Washington will not be able to run against LSU as that is our area of strength.
On defensive side of ball Washington will want to double team LaFell and stack the line to attempt to stop Scott/Williams. In obvious passing downs it would be wise to bring extra man as Jefferson is still a young QB. Getting hit a few times could rattle him a bit and if things do not come quickly he may start to force things. This could lead to a fumble or ill advised pass.
Really LSU hurting itself is best way to beat them. Stupid penalties that kill drives, dropped passes, and offense trying to get too fancy and creative.

Its not always about who they play it can be about how many "W's" they can get during the course of season.

semblance of leadership on defense they wouldn't have been near getting those points
Had LSU any leadership period last season alot of things could have been avoided. You think Hester, Bowe, Dorsey, LaRon would have let players slack, not hustle, or quit during the season?
quote:
Bama got 3 TDS of those INTs
I have it at 14-7 Unless you are deciding to count the OT turnover
quote:
LSU OCs didn't offer him options
Was an issue with all the QB's not just Jefferson, they were ill prepared once Perrilloux was kicked off and Hatch went down.
quote:
As for Toliver, he got more looks at the end of the season and proved to be a solid receiver in the making. He looked better last season than Lafell did in 2006 before turning it on in 2007 and 2008
LaFell was buried behind Bowe, Doucet, Davis he had a reason to struggle.
quote:
Those numbers will go up with JJ at QB than when Lee was there throwing to Lafell or Dickson on every play
Him and Lee combined for 10 catches in Troy/Bama/Ole Miss games. Jefferson and Toliver combined for 8 in Ole Miss/Arkansas/GT.
His numbers will go up but mainly because he will get more looks. Although if he fails to live up to his potential and hype RR could over take him as the #2.

BTW: I think if LSU were to suit up right this minute and play USC or Bama they would lose. I believe both of those teams at this moment in time are better than LSU.

From my understand and this is just my opinion a lot of preseason ranking is based on how a team finished previous season and how their schedule sets up for them. ND being ranked that high can be based purely on fact their schedule is set up nicely for 10+ wins.
Thats one of reason I wil ranking were not released till later in season. It sets up some teams perfectly and others that could be better have to fight and claw because of where they were ranked in a preseason poll.

That offense still put up 21 on Bamas vaunted defense
Bama committed 3 turn overs themselves it was just not LSU shooting itself in foot.
quote:
Coaches pulled in the reigns on the offense in the 2nd half with very bad/conservative playcalling,
Jefferson also quit completing passes
quote:
This wasn't the case of a team being out-talented, but a case of bad scheming and lack of discipline and a natural leader at QB
Florida scored only scored 7 points off an INT and that was not till 3rd quarter. QB was not an issue as much as defense was in that game.
quote:
While Toliver only had 22 catches, once he got meaningful playing time, he showed his ability to dominate and with Lafell and Dickson back, our wideouts will be more than solid.
16 catches last 5 games of the season. Had 9 in final 3 games of the season.

More people believe it than you would believe.
Most fans I know casual and hardcore expected a 15-25 Ranking with some thinking unranked. They believe LSU is a little high and I will admit where they are ranked even surprises me. I expected #16 honestly.

I am excited to see what Cooper has done with the secondary. It may remind me of Zenon and Chevis early on. When they would make the spectacular play and a bonehead play in same series. Only thing was the spectacular play was all anyone could talk about after the game.
You won’t see the INTS for touchdown that is for sure. That is more a fluke stat to be honest, talk to anyone who really understands game of football and they will say it’s frustrating but it should not happen at rate it did last year.
Jefferson adds mobility to LSU QB position something they did not have last year.
My only concern is how accurate Jefferson will be once lights shine bright, and how many sacks will he take. History shows QB's that make plays with their feet usually take more sacks than strict drop back and throw QB's.

And don't forget 49 of our opponents points were directly from 7 INT's for TD's. I don't think thats the case this year either, all though i could be wrong.

I wonder if that will change if the game becomes a blowout or would he risk a Jefferson injury?

OUr Oline is one of the best
Replacing 2 guys who were 3 year starters
quote:
our running back situation is probably one of the best as well
I agree there
quote:
Our recieving corps has experience and not to mention RR will tear it up this year
Yet no one has stepped up into the #2 or #3, we are still waiting on players to live up to their hype. Toliver the player most expect to be the #2 only had 22 catches last year. Here is too hope though.
I am not sure RR will put up Clayton type numbers, that LSU team threw the ball at will this one should be more run oriented.
quote:
the only way our defense could go was up? Can't get any worse,
Again I agree
quote:
believe our secondary will be flawless
Debatable at this point since that was LSU weakest area last season
