    a short week after having essentially a bye week vs a beat up MSU team

    then 10 days to prepare for the Mountaineers who are looking for revenge

    then the 2 weeks to prepare for Bama later in the year

    An easy Kentucky game before playing Florida

    The strength of schedule might be brutal, but the positioning of the teams is perfectly set up.

    Last year was the exact same. Who ever is doing the scheduling at LSU is really thinking things through.

    Agree that it lays out well. But 3 ranked teams on the road in the first 4 weeks is brutal. Of course, we turned JerryWorld into Tiger Stadium West.

    The worst will be over when we smack that ass in Morgantown.

    Even when they have an "off" year, Auburn is ALWAYS physical.
