but not because of LSUs flaws so much as the fact that Vandy, while usualy outmanned, is also well coached. They tend to be a pain in the butt often. It is also going to be a hard game to learn much about our defense because they don't present the kind of air threat we'll see later in the season.

So, I suspect that we'll win but probably by about 10pts.

Just to let you know, they are now running the same offense as Florida.

Guilty as charged.

I don't spend nearly as much time on the Rant as many do. So, I logged in and admittedly, started a fresh thread without looking much.

Oh well.

Well that's awesome but unless they have Tebow at the wheel, I'm thinking it is mainly the "same" on paper. Not so much in real life.

Obvious attempt to shift the spread. Slick move, Shorty!

Couldn't disagree more, game will not be close at all.

I think LSU will be in control the entire game, but it will not be a blowout like many want to see. I'm predicting something like a 31-10 type score, but many on here will not be happy unless Vandy has 0 yards of total offense and we win 52-0.

It would make me much happier if on Sunday morning, you got to come in here and tell me how wrong I was than vice versa.

Well you obviously havent watched much Vandy football over the last few years. This team is scrappy with a solid d. Expect a close game.

Sorry...If we don't win by at least 3 touchdowns and Vandy has more than 250yds of offense on us, we have some major issues. With our talent/athletes, there is no excuse against Vandy...ESPECIALLY at home....

There is nothing that has happened thus far that should make any objective observer believe that this will be anything but a close game. We've got major defensive issues and Vanderbilt is seldom an easy out, especially in the beginning of the season when they can overcome depth issues better than at the end of the season. LSU 24, V 17.
