    Ironically, LSU stands a great chance at finishing 1st in recruiting this season.

    no, and it might not even be that close of a contest

    LSU is finishing the class with, count em, six 5 star recruits (based on composite ranking of the 3 major recruiting sites), with a 50/50 chance at a 7th. Eight of the top 41 players in the nation (yes, that's basically 20 %) could be going to LSU.

    So whoever referenced 2016 as the year they are waiting on for LSU to return to greatness is probably spot on .

    isl gets caught up in recruiting even more than the hype of a game. take his prediction and subtract 14.6% from the ranking totals.

    Out coached period. And I'd almost be willing to wager Saban will never allow Les to out coach him again. Be prepared to see the tigers battle for third place in the SEC for as long as Leslie-tard is in Baton Rouge.

    It's true. You are getting old as dirt.

    We never owned Bama in the game. We hung in with them while they slept through the first half.

    Sadly, true. We were so much better off in the JJ/JL period; then, at least, with the unreal depth of our D we could score TD's, whereas our offense could not get the points on the board; playmakers arose on the D constantly.

    Remember that we gave it up to the NFL on D this year. Blame the $$$ allure of the NFL, LOL. The Gumps have recruited more consistently and, while their D is not the D of yesteryear, they bring more fundamentals to their game every week, while we still cannot complete our tackles with consistency.
