Despite winning the national championship in 2019 (in dominating fashion nonetheless), the expectations aren’t extremely high for LSU football in 2020.
Thanks to a mass exodus of talent from Baton Rouge after the season, the Tigers aren’t even the favorites to win the SEC West in 2020.
But maybe that’s a good thing for LSU.
No one was expecting Ed Orgeron and the Tigers to take the college football world by storm last season. And no one is expecting that to happen this upcoming season.
For now, it seems like analysts are “down” on LSU mostly because no one is sure how effective Myles Brennan will be as Joe Burrow’s replacement.
