He mentions Alabama (of course) and Tennessee as possibilities, but not as much as the team below.
"LSU now has depth; they've now gone through a season in transition under Brian Kelly. They've got their quarterback back, they've got wide receivers on the outside. remember, they threw it for, geez, 500 yards in the SEC Championship game. I get it. Georgia was up handily, and LSU was just pitching it around the lot. But they've got experience at quarterback, they've got experience at wide receiver, their defense should be better, Brian Kelly is a very good football coach. This is a team I would be leery of. I think LSU has got some serious potential."-- Joel Klatt (as quoted on Dawg Daily on FanNation)

Backup QB dropped 30 points + 700 yards on that “elite” Georgia defense iirc.

I’m over here like tap the breaks a bit.
Secondary concerns me.
And our depth is better but Uga deep.

I think LSU-UGA over the next decade has the potential to be the matchup. It has the potential to be a really interesting contrast. Here you have UGA, who is going to be consistently built like the quintessential southern football team - nasty front 7 and beef on the defensive line that comes in waves. LSU is going to be known under Kelly for its offensive lines and, as always the case with Louisiana, it's playmakers on the outside. Not taking away anything from LSU's and UGA's defense and offense, respectively, I just think the strengths of the teams will be as noted.
Not to mention the cultural contrast of fanbases as well. UGA is about as traditional southern/SEC as you could get, with just a smidge of elitism as well. LSU brings the gulf coast/cajun culture with a more blue collar background.

Georgia is not invincible.

If everything comes together for LSU, they will win 9 games. They will most likely only win 8 games this season.

Are they on Georgia's schedule? Then it won't happen.

What is everybody gonna say when LSU finishes 8-4 this season?

Depth is better, but it will take more than one year for BK to build the kind of depth you want to have.

LSU beat Alabama last year by a point in overtime and earned the win, congrats.
But look at the rest of their season, including the score of the 4 games they lost. Would the assessment of that team have been different without that one win? I've never seen a 4 loss team with 2 late season blowout losses get so much hype for the following year. LSU fans mocked TAM mercilessly for being 8-4 2 years ago. They might be great and win it all, but I wouldn't be that optimistic about my team if they just finished a season like that.

Joel Klatt…. Lol.. ok.. now I’m worried.. last year he said OSU could beat UGA , then he said TCU could beat the dawgs.. he never actually picks the games though.. anyone can actually beat someone else..
He’s rarely right..

I could see it, but we're still a little iffy.
Offense is great. If Daniels can put the ball downfield a little better we can get to Atlanta.
Injuries in the secondary could screw us though.

Wow ! With that tough schedule I was thinking it might be Opelika Teachers College, or Gwinnette. Brutal !

Joel Klatt is terrible.

If we could win it last year, sure, LSU can win it this year.
Compared to great SEC teams (including 2019 LSU too) of the recent past, this LSU team doesn't look that great from the outside but if take what the guy is saying, you realize if everyone is down this upcoming season like it was last year, then LSU has a pretty damn good chance.
