BYU gets to shake off some rust but there's also a chance someone gets injured.

Doesn't matter, young guys are going to ball out for 3.5 quarters. Coach O will pump the brakes around the 7minute mark of 4th quarter

Historically speaking, most teams improve the most the week between the 1st and 2nd games.

Unfortunately, advantage BYU....

Remember when LSU opened in Blacksburg against VaTech, LSU's coaching staff was furious because it was originally scheduled as the opener for both teams. VaTech after the agreement was able to schedue a cupcake the week before...

Just saying...

The team with the extra game always has an advantage.

When LSU arranges to play our first game against a reasonably big opponent we need to include a stiff financial penalty if either team schedules another game before it.

Think BYU has a clear advantage.

Some of it has to do with coaching and roster changes but I'm pretty anxious for kickoff.

The rant will be melting a bit if it is tight going into the 4th.

I don't see LSU losing this game but am unsure what to expect to be honest.

Well if Mangum gets hurt I would say LSU. I would say LSU anyway but anytime you play you run a risk of injury so what if BYU has a couple key injuries?

Nah but of course it gives them an advantage because they can work the kinks out. What they don't know is just how much different this game will be from their previous.

The LSU D is going to give BYU nightmares man. We will take away the run first, make them one dimensional, then sick the pass rushing dogs on them, while we find our rythme on offense.

Are u serious, have u looked at there schedule? After playing us they will be beat up. Could easily start 1 and 6 or 7.

I say this everytime we play teams like this early, lose and it is a very long season, close game and its a wakeup call, blow out and smile, good season on the way

We would have had 4 pre season games by then I'm not worried.

Usually it will be an advantage for BYU. The first game should always be a cupcake.
