I dont think so. its going to be a challenging year with no real experience at QB but over all I think this is going to be a productive season, even if it isnt going to be a championship season. Now if one of the 3 QBs turn out, it could be an awesome season!

Actually, it was my wife's parents, the Maricellis.

She went to Bowling Green.

They pastored there about 17 years, Mary and I married in 1984, they resigned the church in 1989.

They are now in Covington, with my brother-in-law, Bro. Rick Maricelli.

GOOOOOOOOOOO TIGERS! My 86 year old dad has been watching Tivoed Tiger Football games for the last month! WE are getting excited about it around here. I think A. Hatch may prove to be a pleasant surprise as QB. But what do I know. I think they will have a pretty good season, but not a Championship Season. One game - the BAMA game will be exciting- that may be our Championship game. If you listen - in the distance - you can hear the roar of a Tiger!

Poor Bobby Petrino fears your right as well. Our defense is thin at linebacker(not the place to be thin in the SEC) and losing DMac and Felix doesn't help the equation. I expect to take some licks over the next couple of years.

I'm anxious to see how Felix fits into the set up in Dallas. Now the Cowboys, we can agree on Ferd.

LSU will do fine this year. They will rely more on their running game which is great.

The last two championships they have won have been with average QB's who were smart. What hatch lacks in throwing ability he will make up for with wise decisions.

I suspect the Tigers will be better in the passing game than we may think. they have some VERY solid recievers!

Dallas got a class kid in Felix Jones. I'm partial obviously because he played for the Hogs, but he was an unselfish guy that cared more about his team than himself up here. He never cared that McFadden got the glory, when in all reality, I think Felix is just as fast. He would have started anywhere else in the SEC. He doesn't have the size or "bruising" ability that DMac had, but around the corner Felix will beat a lot of guys.

I've talked to him quite a bit after practices and after games and he always has a huge smile and is a lot of fun to talk too. If he keeps the right attitude and works hard, Felix will accomplish some things.

i feel like they will be a weakness to start the season.

and early in the season whom ever is at QB will be doing a LOT of handing the ball to a RB.

these guys have talent so as the season progresses, that will shake itself out.

I still think LSU will contend for the SEC title.

Is he the QB that was 3rd string at Harvard? Either he has gotten good real fast(not likely) or Lsu is not very good at the QB position .Lsu will probably lose 3 or 4 games this year.The SEC is too tough to win it all with an inexperienced QB
