Coach:
Les Miles

Last year:
11-2

Offense: Matt Flynn may not be as big or strong-armed as JaMarcus Russell, the man he replaces at quarterback, but who is? However, Flynn, the 2005 Peach Bowl offensive MVP, has the skills to lead the Tigers to an SEC championship and beyond. In the spring game, redshirt freshman running back Richard Murphy served notice that he is a serious contender for the starting tailback spot, though he's sure to get some stiff competition from Keiland Williams. Wide receiver Early Doucet should be the Tigers' leading pass catcher.

Defense: Once again LSU is loaded here, despite the loss of safety LaRon Landry to the NFL. Playboy All America tackle Glenn Dorsey is tough against the rush and gets excellent support from linebacker Ali Highsmith.

Schedule: Favorable. The difficult games -- Virginia Tech, Florida, Auburn and Arkansas -- are all at home.

Prediction: 10-2
