#19 LSU
2009-2010: 9-4...lost to Penn State in the Capital One Bowl

LSU was one of the most prominent schools during the mid-2000's. Nick Saban, of course, led the Tigers to a National Championship in 2003. Les Miles did the same after Saban fled and failed in the NFL in 2007. LSU, however, has almost fallen out of the sky since 2007. Now they return Jordan Jefferson to start at Quarterback for his junior year after a decent Sophomore campaign. LSU's offense was abysmal last season. (Out of 119 teams, of course) LSU ranked 97th in passing offense and 90th in rushing. Jefferson should be much improved and the LSU defense should be a bulwark as always. LSU has sleeper potential in the SEC West while many look at Alabama as an unbeatable juggernaut, fear the Tigers.

2010-2011 Outlook:
Key Game: SEC competition is ridiculous for LSU this season, they have far too many key games to name just one.
Predicted Record: 8-4, 4-4 (losses at Florida, versus Alabama, versus Ole Miss, and at Arkansas)
