re: LSU is a 5.5 point favorite. Does LSU cover the spread?

The Rant...God Love Ya'll.

Recency bias! OU is not one of the Top 15 teams in the country and because we hammered an overmatched team, ergo, we beat Clemson by 20. You gotta be kidding me.

Our defense cant stop Clemson under ANY circumstance. Etitenne is the best back we have seen since Najee harris and I think Etienne is faster and and better. This is the 2nd best group of WRs we have seen all year and just go watch what CeDe did to our safeties....Clemson will find mismatches all day long in that secondary.

Finally, every single mobile qb has had some limited success extending plays vs LSU all year long. And I think TL will have some success moving the chains.

Now, whether Lawrence can execute and depending on if all 3 Clemson WRs are healthy, is really what you are gambling on.

Personally, I do not see any circumstance (other than KEY injuries) that this game doesn't get OVER 70. Nobody has held LSU under 450 yards which should equal around 35-45 points with some red zone execution and I don't see how we keep Clemson UNDER 28

I think this is a shootout with the better Red Zone team coming out on top.

LSU 47 Clemson 38
LSU 41-Clemson 37

Around those scores. LSU gets the edge because htey siply do it every single week under Burrow!
