What you are describing is football. Alabama constantly has the #1 ranked recruiting class yet they lose games. Teams lose to "inferior" talent all the time


Exactly. I just thought it might be a nice reminder for the 48-17 crowd.

So yes. Just like any game. The favorite could lose. But they are the favorite for a reason.
My prediction. LSU, GOOD. Wisky, GOOD. 7+ victory for LSU.
And hopefully Wisky goes undefeated from there.


I can't argue with that take though I think the 3 level difference is overstating it a bit. I would be pretty shocked if it was more than a one score game either way in the 4th quarter and as you said, LSU is the favorite for a reason.

I get what you're saying, but this mentality is what fuels the "48-17 crowd"..

Would you REALLY be shocked if it was 13 point LSU lead in the 4th?
I mean, REALLY?
Or would you just turn around to your friends and be like "well, we were supposed to lose that one anyway."
