    Meh, your credibility is shot,.. Oregon's schedule is very easy, the Ducks will win 8 games before the Ducks even play against the Spoiled Children on November 3rd.

    I suppose you speak of Monte? Certainly not Orgeron?

    Of course, the guy in charge still has to also be a good coach--contrary to public opinion of many in Baton Rouge. And the last time I checked, Lane was still a d-bag.

    Even if Kiffen somehow doesn't manage to eff this up (I think he will; he's too immature to handle all these expectations) and they go undefeated, there is no way that they can be considered the "greatest of all time" because their schedule simply doesn't allow it. They will have beaten one good team in Oregon (don't think it will happen) by season's end. They will never be even in the same stratosphere as where we were last year, regardless of what happens. So let's just go ahead and drop that subject right now.

    For the last several years USC has dropped at least 1 game to a team they had no business losing to. And the Pac-12 is as good, if not better, now than it has been in that period of time. It may not be the cakewalk to the NCG that some are thinking.

    Minus LaMichael James and Darron Thomas I don't see the ducks having the high potent offense they had last year. They didn't have a defense last year soo that pretty much sums it up. Chip Kelly isn't going to build a Pac 12 championship caliber team in one year.. USC's running attack powered with a quarterback who's been in that system since his freshman year. I don't like USC anymore than anyone in here but just putting my two cents in like the rest of you all in here.

    Regardless of what LSU did last year it means nothing... I know you can say we went 13-0 and thats just great but just like the 2007 New England Patriots who made it to the superbowl undefeated. When playing the New York football Giants could not fulfill their goal. I'm sorry to say it but it looks to me like LSU is in the same boat. 5 years from not noone is going to even remember who played in New Orleans except maybe alabama fans...

    You ran your mouth and got called on it now you're running from your own words. It takes 11 to play offense, brah, not 2, and the ducks' scheme is what you have to stop, not just two players.

    Keep talking, cause everyone here can see that you're full of shit.

    Don't even care about that. We went 13-0 against probably the toughest schedule that any NCAA football team has ever had to endure, and we waxed everyone but the eventual national champs by considerable margins. Nothing that SC does this year can top that, even if they run the table.

    Put it this way had we had a decent offensive coordinator last year LSU would have been 14-0 last season not 13-1

    well they lost more than two players but i was just pointing out the two key players that evolved the offesne into what it was. Oregon isn't going to be the same team I'm sorry... Neither is Alabama.
