| The LSU Fighting Tigers enter the 2009 campaign with reasonable expectations. The cloud of Perrilloux has passed with renewed confidence in the quarterback corps. The stable of running backs is led by Charles Scott with Williams, Murphy, and Holliday offering differing styles. Sure-handed receivers intend to balance the offensive game plan. The two-headed defensive monster has been replaced with a veteran coordinator in John "Chief" Chavis. New faces step into the breach left by departing stars. Simplified schemes and aggressiveness will be tested by the best in the nation. The schedule is challenging. Visits to a diminishing Georgia, a refocusing Alabama, and a rising Ole Miss squad and home stands against the Defending National Champion Gators and the surprising Razorbacks will give the Bayou Bengals all they can handle. Huskies, Commodores, Cajuns, and the Mississippi variety of Bulldogs will set the table before these entrees are served. A mightily disappointed Auburn accompanies Tulane and Louisiana Tech with visits in the latter half of the season. We're in for another exciting ride. Buckle up and enjoy. |
