Bad bet?




Yes

LSU will be up 42-0 at half and Miles will take Mett out so Bolden can run short-side option

We will still score almost at will with Bolden and the short side option. Our RB's are ridiculous and they will still be fresh in the 4th.

That may be a tad optimistic. Obviously, we are the far superior team and I will be shocked if it's not a blowout, but it's the first game of the year with a new starter at QB. There might very easily be some bugs to work out in the first few series before we start rolling. I'll be happy if we're up by 21 at halftime.

Remember in 2003, we opened with UL-Monroe and looked sluggish the whole first half (I think we led only 13-0 at halftime?). That was the eventual national champions playing a complete cupcake. Then, we got things on track and won 49-7. I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar tomorrow night.
