Bad bet? I just feel like our passing offense has had blue balls for a year and will explode tomorrow night. Also RB's will be good for at least 4 TDs.

I see where you are coming from, but I am always scared betting overs on the first game. They may have a few wrinkes they need to iron out. It will be a blowout though and hopefully you win the over.

52 is a lot if you expect our defense to play well, but still not terrible. NT could get some mop up td(s) on the second team.

I'm thinking they get 6 on two FG's and we get at least 49.

I think the over is a good play. No matter what string is in we will be getting 7 yards a carry

Yes

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

bad bet


you have the wrong coach for that bet.

Once they are up 30 points, they are going to run and run and run, and the clock will move.

You need to bet on Okies. Sooners will run up 68 or 70 any chance they get.

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.

Miles and the over are not friends.

I'm assuming that this is how they recruited him here.

The only caveat here is Lester calls off the dogs when things get out of hand. He does not like to run up scores.

Bad bet. Even if the passing game shines, once we get a big lead, all we will do is run run run and pound away at the clock.

I don't think we score in the 50's and I don't think UNT gets double digit points, therefore over 52 is a shaky bet, IMHO TIA PIIHB FWIW

He's not going to take a knee in the middle of the 3rd quarter. Our RB's will destroy them running dives and options.

I agree with the previous guy that it will be around 42-0 at half. That means Spencer Ware and Michael Ford run the ball in the second half on fresh legs. One TD and one FG at that point and I hit the number.

I plan to take the over in both LSU vs UNT and Oregon vs Arkansas State in a teaser. Add in Ohio State covering 18.5 and I'm hoping to look at a good payday tomorrow.

Miles usually calls of the dogs especially against inferior teams. I think it is honorable and also why risk injury to your starters.
