LSU still 2 in polls

I would say that last years team had more talent.

Well last year we had Russell so I'd have a hard time arguing with you for that reason only. But from top to bottom I don't think last years team has the talent as our current roster. We had a few players last year that I loved but I was happy that they finally moved on. Vincent, Broussard, and Pittman. Pittman was adequate at stopping the run but wasn't a good pass rusher and hardly ever made any plays. Vincent just messed himself up by not staying in shape after his freshmen season. I mean he was a beast that year and then turned to crap. Broussard I really feel so sorry for. He was IMO the most physically complete running back that LSU has ever had. At 240 pounds he was running in the 4.3 range and was even faster than Joseph Addai was when he was at LSU. With that kind of size and speed he would have been the first RB taken if it wasn't for that injury. He still has a chance to be drafted and make an NFL roster as backup but he is never going to be as good as he was
