I think it will say more about playing in Death Valley and USCe coming in flat after a big win. we are still what we thought we were.

This team is still in trouble but at least we will beat a top 5 team next week.

We need an attitude and this is the game we get it.

The opening like makes me feel better. I get the goal is to get even money, but those guys pour over so much data, trends, etc. Something just seems off at LSU -4.5. If the line looks funny, I assume they know something I don't.

SC will have a letdown after getting up for their game of the year against Georgia.

I think the Old Ball Coach will have 'em ready to play in Death Valley.

Yep. No one seems to know that.

They probably see USCe is 1-17 in their last 18 against LSU, with the lone win coming in 1994. Then, they see LSU almost never loses back to back games. It has happened once under Les, and it took miracle on Markham II to happen. This one is at home and LSU has its back against the wall. USCe is unlikely to play as well as they did last week...it's human nature to have a let down after a big win, especially for a program that isn't used to being in this position. All of that adds up to LSU being favored. The betting public will determine the final line though.

Since 2002 LSU is 46-1 at home at night. The cocks are coming off a big win and LSU is looking to bounce back in front of the home crowd...Geaux!

this is my thought. They would get heavy action on USCe as a pickem...instead they put us at -3....no need for that if the point is to get 50/50

This is true. Anyone care to guess the last time LSU beat a top 5 team at home at night? The answer shocked me.

i would assume that is because since then anytime we've played a top 5 team at home, we have had the 2:30 cbs game.

That's what I figure off the top of my head.

It's a little misleading, though. LSU doesn't play many top 5 teams.. let alone top 5 teams at home.. let alone top 5 teams at home at night. Most top 5 team games will be at 2:30 on CBS.
