How do you feel about the 8.5 line for football win totals?

Over. It would be 9.5 if not for the Clemson game (Verge is really bad at his job).

8-4 would out BK on a scalding hot seat

I'd take the over. My biggest question for the team would be replacing both OT's. I hope the OL can protect Nussmeir.

And of course, seems like LSU has had questions regarding Safety and DL depth for a few years now.

I think we have a good roster, but so did Ole Miss last year. They had growing pains when they played any team with a pulse.

Clemson will not be easy for this team to put it all together. I agree, Verge did not do us any favors with this matchup on the road.

I like the over, but I can see 9-3 or 10-2.

Death. Taxes. Over 8.5 wins.

I’d have to say over because if not 10 or at worst 9 wins we don’t make the CFP. If we don’t make the CFP, I’m afraid the FIT GONNA HIT THE SHAN!

Hope I’m wrong, but I don’t see 9 wins with that schedule.

Over but you always have to consider QB 1 getting hurt. If Nuss doesn’t start what will win total be?

Way over. Easiest money you’ve ever made.

This is easily the best team that Brian Kelly has had at LSU and he’s never won less than 9 games in a season here (and he’s won 10 games in 2 of his 3 seasons here).

Ole Miss was a team of mercenaries in 2024.

LSU in 2025 is a good mix of experienced talent recruited from high school and mercenaries to fill in the remaining holes.

We will be much better than 2024 Ole Miss. That team could not even beat 2024 LSU.
