ESPN
8 of 17 pick Auburn to win by 2 scores. 15 of 17 have Auburn scoring 20 or more. The fact that almost all have Auburn scoring in the 20s actually makes me feel pretty good about this. These people clearly aren't watching this defense. I know Auburn's offense is very capable and can get rolling in a hurry especially at home, but that many people saying Auburn will score in the 20s is a certainty tells me that this is obviously coming from someone who only knows the bullet points of these teams and of this game. I do not see either team scoring into the 20s on saturday. I'm not saying that I don't see LSU losing (I could easily envision it), but as Lee Corso says, this will be "closer than the experts think."

ETA: this was posted already. downvote away, I already did

Remember when Andrew Hatch and a freshman Jarrett Lee went in dry on Auburn?


I remember.

Him and jojo were clicking. I do also remember that awful pick 6 right before the half. They should have had him just handing off at that point.

Put your guys in good situations on the road. Remember Brandon Harris and his first SEC start? At Jordan Hare?

LSU has won seven of the last ten by a 15 point margin.

I'll never understand why anyone cares who the "experts" pick. It literally has no bearing on the game whatsoever.

Hell, just for the sake of completeness, I'm picking Auburn 26-14. Maybe that will be enough to turn the tide for LSU.

What's the avg score when it is in Auburn? What about scores when Auburn isn't a garbage team?

Seriously, be unbiased here. We've won there twice in the last 20 years. Those two wins we're against the team that got Tuberville fired, and an 0-8 SEC team.

People think that the "experts" all picking against us necessarily works in our favor, as our guys will have a chip on their shoulder.

The entire idea that we need to have a chip on our shoulder to win is irritating as hell.

If it’s negative, it’s been posted.
