If LSU doesn't win by at least 17, embarrassing.

A North Carolina fan posted that they are without 9 starters. lol

Offense
Druaghn - starting RB
Houston - starting RB

Little - starting WR

Defense
Quinn - starting DE
McAdoo - starting DE (but only because Coples is replacing Austin at DT)
Austin - starting DT

Burney - starting CB
Brown - starting CB
Searcy - starting SS

If LSU doesn't win by at least 17, embarrassing.

17 points is presumptuous for LSU at this point.

Maybe they'll let LSU play 1's vs 2's. That would be better than this.

Crazy. This could've been a special season for UNC.

Add three more starters not making the trip.

So North Carolina will be fielding just two starters on defense. Ouch.

If you were a NC fan you would be happy with any wins you can get, any given year. lol

LSU has a coach who's more than capable of embarrassment.

This offseason has caused me to hate more teams, collectively than ever. This whole ordeal with NC makes me more resolute in my support of NOT playing them next year.
