The Hurricanes return most of their starters from last year's 10-win breakout campaign in Mark Richt's first season at the helm. They should be in good shape for a second straight ACC title game appearance. The LSU lost both of their QB's and I think Miami has the better athletes here. LSU has had a lot of disruptions, lost a lot of key players, while Miami is loaded defensively. HC Mark Richt has experience coaching against SEC teams and so does his defensive coordinator. This LSU club will be a work in progress and much better toward the season's end. But the Week 1 quality team lies squarely with the Miami Hurricanes and I'll back them on Sunday night.
