CFBHurts 2 Clemson might be truly putrid, but for now that still counts as the 2nd best win in the country
Charlemagne42 2 On upset weekend, it's good to not be upset.

Hey_Its_Roomie 2 2-0, cumulative opponents' win percentage against other teams is 100%,
lowes18 2 LSU eventually ran away from Louisiana Tech in the second half, and should have blown them out in the first if not for three disastrous turnovers from Leavitt. The LSU offensive line showed some serious issues in pass protection as well, leading to statistically sloppy performance for LSU. The defense is still absolutely elite, and prevented any serious threat from Louisiana Tech, but the Tigers have some clear issues to work through before they face Ole Miss on Saturday.

Conn3er 8 Defense feels like it’s well put together

Offense is not there yet, impressive win over a Clemson team that I don’t think ever appears in the top 25 this year but when they start to play some SEC defense I think you’ll see some much lower scoring affairs.

TheUltimate721 10 I know everyone got really hyped up because of the Clemson win last week, but that was a really rough showing for Sam Leavitt and the LSU offense. 4 turnovers in the first half could be damning come SEC play. And they open up SEC play next week against *checks notes* Ole Miss. Oh boy.

Doogitywoogity 12 They’ve moved down a bit as Clemson barely survived GaSo and LSU let LaTech hang around far too long. I’m now much less sure how good this squad is, and I’m getting flashbacks to last years LSU-Clemson. Huge, vile, spiteful game vs Ole Miss this weekend. The Magnolia Bowl will probably have some really funny/sad fights breaking out throughout Oxford, especially at the end of a long day of drinking. Must watch tv. Should help narrow down what to think of this squad.

_THE__BOULDER_ 3 Looked pretty rough in the first half against LA Tech but widened the gap in the second half. Ole Miss coming up this weekend, it's possible LSU was looking a bit too far ahead in the future, but they ended up getting the job done despite the sloppiness early on. Knocked them down a tick from last week due to the sloppiness of the first half, but they're still looking like a top 5 team.
