That's pretty good for a rebuilding roster

Last year Vegas had us going 11-1 before the season (possibly even 11-0-1 as I believe the Bama game started even before the season)

nope... last season o/u wins was 9, year before that was 8.
I'd say they were pretty close considering we had 8 (9 counting mcneese) and 8 respectively.

Our over/Under for this season was 8.5-9 depending on the book

You can't change the way you gauge this thing like that

I think the one Saving grace this year for LSU is the fact the SEC is hot garbage as a whole. Catching teams at right time this year will help. Getting Auburn at Home. Auburn hasn't won since I was a senior at LSU. But Auburn has one of the best fronts in the country. Auburn imo will win. Also catching Tennessee at the end of the year. Tennessee might have quit on Butch Jones by then. I just don't see LsU scoring points against Florida but also I don't see Florida scoring much against LsU. who knows with that game. Bama/LSU depth will be the obvious issue with that game. Texas A&M and Arkansas are horrible and we should see a good preview of that on display tomorrow. Ole Miss at home even though they looked like crap last week, they pose a mismatch for LSU with our lack of depth. Still can manage a decent season with some lucky breaks. I am trying to stay optimistic. I am taking the Under on the overall LSU record. with Loses this year: State, Bama, Auburn, Florida, Ole Miss.

Florida will be really hyped up for this game. LSU will too but it's at the swamp for homecoming.

Don't get this. They beat LSU last year by kicking field goals. Their DL is going to destroy LSU's OL.

Now you are completely changing the parameters

The individual game lines had us at 11-0-1 before the season last year

Which is what you are using in the op

I bet Vegas has changed its opinion on Moo state after last week.

Yeah, because all the Gator players want to have a good time at the soc hop afterwards.

Geez, man, no one has given a shite about homecoming since the 70's.

Florida's homecoming is perhaps one of the biggest in the SEC. gator growl is huge. Don't know if they still do it the night before.

The lines mean that is how Vegas believes that is what the public is leaning.

Dawgturd thinks Vegas is actually a mythical football expert that knows things

This is why it's laughable when people use individual lines to try and claim what "Vegas believes". The O/U win totals show what Vegas thinks of each team, the individual game lines show what Vegas thinks is going to make them the most money.

I don't even bet football and I know this.

The OP posted individual game lines to say we go 10-2.......

Individual game lines had us at 12-0 last year.



Follow along. You just agreed with the slow OP that doesnt realize he quoted two different metrics

Vegas had LSU goin 11-1 every week until , well, now .

Sooooo...10-2 it is .

Absolutely agree with Vegas on this as I did the 11-1.

New phenomena with the LSU fanbase , however ...excuses for the HC with regard to expectations.

I already miss winning with talent alone and unlimited luck the way Miles did ...having to rely on the competence of a HC is proving a bit more unreliable than most thought .

I'm calling out the OP. Maybe you're the one who should follow along.




ETA: I even responded to the OP after he tried to move the goal posts from his original statement.
