3/31 Scrimmage

[Godfather]

Mark my words.  10-3

As in Hardee?

Based on what I've seen and heard, I think this may be a very surprising team.  It's only one week in, but Frazier seems to be catching on just fine, and throwing well.  That's a huge part of the puzzle.  I really don't think they're going to ask Frazier to win game, just not lose them.

The OL may not be dominant, but they'll be much better than last year, and the run game will be aided by the addition of real blocking TEs. 

If the defense improves to just middle of the pack, we win 9 or 10. 

I'm going to offer this too.  And it's just a surmise on my part.  I think Les, and the LSU program will still be in a tail spin after that BCSCG disaster, and I think many LSU folks will be on his ass hard if they stumble somewhere, because they will come out as the #1 in most polls.  They're going to be breaking in a new QB in a haphazard, grab bag offense.    I can see the real possibility of a major implosion.  If they don't, it will be a masterful coaching job by Miles IMHO.

This is all pretty spot-on in my opinion.  But there is a hell of a lot of improvement needed on the defensive side to bring it up to "middle of the pack".

I think BVG brings the attitude needed, plus we have a lot of returning experience, albeit experienced in getting shredded, but experience non the less.   They're going to be much more aggressive.  There are trade offs in everything.  We were not aggressive the last 3 years, and gave up shit loads of time consuming drives.  This defense will be more attacking, and make more plays, but will likely give up a big play from time to time too.  I still think we're going to be much better.  But, we'll have to see I guess, I just have a good feeling about it all the way around.

Fuck you bitches. 

We'll be 13-0 going into the NC.

Unless we aren't.

There is a lot of optimism in this thread and I don't like it, I thought the sky was falling.

That I have no idea but I hope not. Dude seems to be a beast.

Certainly hope you're right.

Damn, I didn't see that coming but shouldn't be surprised. After his leg injury, he just kind of disappeared.

He gave up football long ago, now he just won't be taking up space and oxygen on the practice field.
