Farrell’s take: FICTION. But it could be close. I see 7-3 for the defending champs with all of its roster losses and breaking in a new quarterback in Myles Brennan. Florida, Auburn and Alabama will be the losses and Texas A&M is a toss-up. The roster has been decimated by players off to the pros and opting out, but there is a lot of young talent ready to emerge. Just not enough to avoid three losses.
Gorney’s take: FACT. With all those departures and opt-outs, LSU could definitely go 6-4. Florida and Auburn are toss-up games and with such an outstanding secondary, the Tigers are not going to give up many – if any – chunk plays downfield. Perhaps no elite team in the SEC has more question marks heading into the season, but there is so much young and hungry talent there that LSU will be fine.
