re: 10 reasons TCU will beat LSU - enjoy I am sure you need a laugh today !

That post was in response to a similar "10 reasons LSU will beat TCU" posted on killerfrogs.com

1. Motivation reasonable
2. Coaching I agree but only when looking HC to HC. When comparing staff to staff, LSU get advantage assuming Miles allows Cam the operate like he allows the Chief
3. Quarterback

more talented quarterback, especially throwing

true

but Pachall has more upside

possible but uncertain considering a year off and recent practice reports
4. Secondary true especially against a possibly underachieving Mett. This assumes TCU can shut down the run though.
5. Run Defense I think TCU may be able to control the run but will have to sell out to do so. The D's ability to control the run will decrease as the game proceeds due to lack of depth up front. IMHO this is where TCU loses this game.
6. Past History Mostly true but offers no real advantage
7. Experience GP is used to getting players ready for big opponents. Les faulters getting his ready for lesser opponents. That being said I think this is even for this game. Les and LSU will not be under respecting TCU.
8. Conditioning TCU is a well conditioned team but no more so than LSU and LSU has the depth advantage to be able to rotate players.
9. Wide Receivers unproven
10. Prepartion GP and Les both do a great job of preparing for games when given more than one week. I see no advantage either way.
