re: A lot of 'experts' are picking us to lose

I think it is interesting that even the so called experts are overwhelmingly predicting an A&M win. It makes very little sense. You would think it would be an even split.

Point well taken and I agree in most part. I thought most would pick LSU to win. But it's not really overwhelming or that surprising considering they are all posting scores and they're all really close. Among the experts in the O.P., for example, it averages out to A&M +1.4. Only about 3-4 points off the Vegas number (depending on the book) which is about what you would expect considering LSU is the bigger name and in the stronger conference (thus will likely attract more action). That being said, I'm not touching this game. I have no clue how this thing is gonna go. Bowl games are pretty tough to bet, escpecially if your team is in it.
