    Our offense is number 1 because we have:

    1. Best QB in America (Finebaum)
    2. Best WR Corps (arguable) with:
    Marshall/Jeff/Chase/Sullivan/Dillon
    not to mention lethal TE Thad Moss
    3. A stout OL better with Ed Ingram
    4. One of Toughest SOS in America.

    Promise:
    We’re break all records vs Utah St
    We’re truck Gators in Death Valley
    We’re rout the hapless Bulldogs
    We’re school Gus in Death Valley
    Note: Auburn secondary is porous and can be beaten for big play after big play ...

    IMO, These games will all be scrimmages where LSU hangs 60+ on all opponents with an ever vicious defense collecting more Ints and fumbles ... Not to mention ST play

    This season will be a tale of two halves. Outside of a handful of games through 5 weeks (and 6 if you look at next week) it’s been pretty lopsided.

    Things are going to get very interesting down the stretch.

    I would have have kicked it and taken my chances in overtime. You gotta play the odds.

    Didn’t say it was the smart move, just an awesome one.

    Fun fact: Frank Howard, legendary Clemson coach in, oh probably 50s - early 70s is the one that coined the phrase “A tie is like kissing your sister” or so I was always told. I guess Mack Brown took that to heart.

    I say we have the best chance to outscore any opponent in the Top 10 in a shootout ... Even in Tuscaloosa ...

    Bama hasn’t covered against So Carolina and today Ole Miss ... Bama won’t be able to stop LSU enough before we hang 40-50 on them and our CBs and Safeties pick about 2 or 3 Tua passes ... Bama can’t play catch up ball ...

    Bama gets a worn out A&M team Oct 12 in College Station after AU and Arkansas beat them up ... Both teams get a bye Oct 5 ...
    I’m seeing Bama trucking Mond in Texas winning by a helluva lot more than Clemson did (14 points) ... Bama by 24

    Was it 1982 or 83 when Tom Osbourne elected to go for 2 in the Orange Bowl? A kick would have given the Huskers a tie and probably the #1 vote in the final polls. The way I see it he blew the national championship.

    Strong chance that no SEC team finishes undefeated this year.

    Auburn vs Florida
    Florida vs LSU
    Auburn vs LSU
    LSU vs Bama
    Florida vs Georgia
    Georgia vs Auburn
    Bama vs Auburn
    SEC Championship Game

    Always an outside chance of an upset by a Missouri or Texas A&M team as well.

    Going to be a very interesting back half of the season.

    Possible ... Consider this point!

    Bama not covering spread last two weeks and TOUGHEST TEAM BEFORE THEY FACE LSU IS TAMU 10/12 AFTER A BYE

    We’re gonna truck Alabama and no one sees it coming ... Watch what we do to
    Utah St/ Fla/ MSU / Au in the next 4 wks

    Well, let’s hope we get our defensive issues corrected. Good news is, they’re fixable issues and not just a lack of talent.

    Getting some of our D starter back who have been out with injuries will be a big help.
