I am a Longhorn, so really hard to say this, but I believe that there were too many automatic "wins" against OU. Now, let's be clear ... I would love for the to lose them ALL, but they might push a couple teams in the mouth more that you are thinking. They should have a good (not elite) defense and it kind of all depends on (a) if they can solve their o-line gaps via all of the transfers they brought in and obviously (b) how well Arnold performs during his first year. However, Arnolds most important ability is actually availability as they don't have a deep and experienced QB room.

LSU with lots of luck may go 7-5 this year. Definite losses: USC, Alabama, Ole Miss, Texas A & M. Toss ups: Oklahoma, Auburn, South Carolina. LSU still has no defense, and foolishly allowed Ole Miss to get all the good defensive players from the transfer portal. Also, the offense no longer has a Heisman quarterback and the running game is a joke. I still don't understand why LSU stupidly insists on losing its first game of the season to power teams while the rest of the SEC smartly schedules cannon fodder. You lose your first game and you are OUT of the running. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

@jakemitchell16719 ай бұрын
You make a good point Calvin, but clearly you haven't followed the rebuilding of the OM defense. First of all, the #68 ranking is misleading. They allowed 22 points per game (iirc), which paired with an elite offense netted an 11-2 season - better than LSU. The OM offense will be better in '24, and the defense will be MUCH better. Check out the transfer portal acquisitions on D, in addition to a top 5 high school recruiting class on defense. LSU might very well beat the brakes off the Rebels this year, but it's not likely. Without Daniels the Tigers likely will not be better in '24. Ole Miss very likely will be much better in '24. Just my opinion. With respect.
@CalvinK2259 ай бұрын
@@jakemitchell1671 first of all, I’m not comparing to LSU, that’s where you are incorrect. I said #68 in general, and that’s the ranking, period. Nussmier can start for more than half of the SEC schools this season, so don’t just think they are rebuilding at QB. No one knew Daniels would have the season he did, so don’t just say LSU will not better, because if they had a top 30 defense lady year, they would’ve made the CFP. That horrible defense will improve, as it can’t get any worse. Now to the portal, you do realize that portal players are there for a reason right? You think they were so great at their school they wanted to transfer? If you are going by the portal transfers , that hasn’t played a snap at Ole Miss, then that is a hope only. LSU had the number one portal class two years ago, mostly defensive players, where did that get them? Ole Miss has no defense, not enough to contend for an SEC title. Period. With all due respect.

@@CalvinK225 Too much there for me to unpack right now (wife wants to watch TV, lol), but I wil say your apparent view of TP contribution doesn't hold water in the case of Ole MIss. I'll provide specifics later. The primary mistake you're making is that in this day of TP/NIL anything can be learned from the previous year. You say "Ole MIss has no defense." That's an indefensible position. It's more accurate to say "In the past Ole Miss has had weak defenses." If you will simply look at the changes in personnel for the '24 season you will see that Ole MIss very likely will have a MUCH improved defense. Only time will tell.
