    With Tennessee's QB and best WR injured, their running game averaging negative yardage, and a mediocre Defense, the Tennessee game will be easy. No concern there.

    I only watched Auburn's 2nd game this year, but it seems they are better than they started the season. They have talent and should put up a fight. I think LSU pulls away in the 3rd Quarter and wins by 14 to 21 points.

    Before the season, the UF, UT, Auburn stretch looked pretty rough, but it's breaking for us pretty nicely. We should get through it pretty easily and then get a Bye Week to rest up and prepare for Bama.

    I'm pulling for Bama in their games until then, because the hype for #1 vs #2 will be unreal. I'll hold off on my breakdown/prediction on that game until it gets closer, but it's gonna be a good one!

    LSU vs. Bama will not only be FOR the National Championship, it will be BETTER than.

    As for Auburn, they're WAY better than I thought they'd be but still average at best. I would not be surprised if we shut them out and I definitely don't see them scoring over 10.

    UT I had no idea about preseason but figured a game at Neyland was at least competitive. It's going to be ugly.

    Yeah and we need to have Aubarn beat the gators this Saturday.

    Then that would make them the 5th Top 25 team we will beatdown convincingly in 8 games.

    This is just an amazing season!

    And Arky is rebounding better than I anticipated after the all or nothing approach they took against Bama. Getting Green back has given them a legitimate running game again and Wilson is getting the ball to some of the best receivers in the SEC. If their offensive line can step it up, they could finish with a rush.

    True. After Bama, Arky is the most dangerous for us imo.

    There's a huge dropoff in the amount of danger tween them and yall though. :yelwink2:

    Absolutely, there is a reason, even in football, that there is "no place like home." By the time you play, arky nation will once again be in a state of euphoria about their incredible offense that no human can stop. They will start screaming, in BP we trust, we have reached the "elite level," when we played Bama, we were just to young, weren't ready, had an off day. LSU will remind them, "no place like home."

    I just get the feeling that with all these hits that Tyler Wilson keeps taking, eventually he's gonna stay down. I don't wish it on him, but sometime, either this season or even next year perhaps, he's gonna take the wrong hit. The dude is tough though, I give him that.

    Ar-kansas has only played against ONE upper tier defense and they caught a beatdown when they did. Sure, they'll be more "seasoned" when they come to Baton Rouge, but so will the Tigers.
