Okay...so WV has LSU to play. After that they play: Bowling Green,CT,Cuse,Rutgers,Louisville,Cinn and Pittsburgh before they play another good opponent. South Florida. I get the feeling that this game is the super bowl for WV but most LSU fans are overlooking the game it seems. We are all excited about being #2 and that one guy at ESPN projected us to play in the national championship game. Everyone is talking about the Alabama match-up and the possibility of playing bama again in the national championship game. Vegas only has us as a 5 pt or so favorite. This game is just plain scary to me.

As long as the team isn't overlooking WVU I'm good.

I agree. After the way our D played the other day I feel very confident about this game, and am certain we won't lose because of the WVU offense. If we get burned on anything, it will be special teams, coupled with coming out flat on offense.

Your right...I forgot I am not on the team. For some reason I keep forgetting that. I always say "we" when referring to the tigers. Sure hope LSU is not looking ahead to # 15 Florida coming up.

We are not overlooking a top 204 team arse hat. But those of us that watch both teams know they dont match up well against us. They have zero run game. They couldnt run it last year when they had a run game. Our d is better and their run game is none existant. Our O will control the clock and we win with no real threat of losing. We may not blow them out but they have no chance if they cant run.

Every game we play you can say they are overlooking until we play #2 bama.

The only thing I don't like about this game is WVU has already seen LSU. They know what to expect when it comes to speed+strength from us. However, if they can't establish a run game...they're going to have a looooooong day. I will say I've been impressed with Geno's accuracy this year but he hasn't played a LSU secondary.

WVU is a lot of things, but 'scary' isn't one of them.

"Vegas" doesn't give a sick rat's arse what the final score is. They are in the business of getting equal money on BOTH sides of the line. Their opening spread is a prediction of what the betting public will do. NOT what the teams will do.

That is why the line changes. They have not "re-evaluated" the teams and decided one team is suddenly 5-1/2 points better....rather than just 5.

The game is very daunting. Gameday will be present. WVU's stadium will be beserk by the 8 PM Easterm kickoff. As you note, a WVU victory could propel them to the NC game. Gino Smith is a very capable, accurate QB. Holgerson is a noted offensive tactician.

I'm not overlooking the game. I don't believe most LSU fans are. The team certainly shouldn't be.

Why, Why, Why?? Every week somebody has to get on here whining about the next game makes em, scared, worried, or a trap game..... Geez!
Of course no game is a sure thing, thats why ya gotta suit up and play the game, but these Tiger aint overlooking nothing... and if they were, I promise you CLM would have that attitude worked out by game day... Lighten up people!! I believe WV will be handily beaten down, and Gino Boy will be very sore Sunday a.m.

It is their Super Bowl and will be a tough game for LSU if they get rolling early

And the path to the BCS NCG should be pretty easy for WVU if they can beat LSU - it's not like they could do something silly and lose to Pitt
