LSU 34

UF 13
If LSU beats UF 34-13 in Gainesville, we should move to #2 in the country. UF's Defense is excellent. Their offense is good. The Swamp is the Swamp.

LSU -2pts seems about right.

So, your saying ESPN is the CNN/MSNBC of sports. We all knew that.

I just posted something similar to this about an hour ago about how ESPN and other pronasticaters have not respect for LSU and almost every a-hole on here jumped on my sh-t. Can we say ranters are for the most part either drunk or out of touch with reality ?

LOL, if you think their offense is good, then you must think ours is the best in the NFL

UF will play us hard, but there is no way they should be favored, even at home. Not with the records both teams have and the body of work at this point.

I wouldn’t make Florida the favorite, but they are a top 25 team now. Beating any top 25 team on the road is an accomplishment.

Florida has played well since their loss to Kentucky and, as it turns out, Kentucky has a decent team this year.

Rain is in the forecast. So there is a 60% chance that UF will cancel the game.

This is about as even of a match up as there is. UF has a great young set of dbs. We have great dbs, but they lose focus at times.
LSU has had zero pass rush lately, but the UF Oline is a hot mess.
LSU can’t run effectively at times and UF can stop the run.

On the other side, Mullen will call a ton of short passes to keep the offense on the field. They’d were 3 step drops. The LSU LBs will need to be disciplined in their reads and TACKLE. I bet there were more missed tackles last night than the previous 4 games.

Franks is not Mobil and kinda slow with his reads at times. Burrow is a gamer.

Look for a low scoring game and the team to get the ball last wins.

Nope. Vegas has us at -3 1/2 tonight. Free money if it stays there imo.

love how miami is ahead of us on that list
miami is projected to have a higher win total than lsu.

having said that, don't ask me to defend the fpi. i am scratching my head over it for multiple reasons.

there is some truth to that, with a caveat. statistically, the 2 teams are nearly equal except uf has been better against the pass whereas lsu has been better against the run.

however, lsu has played a much, MUCH tougher schedule than florida. lsu has won a huge conference game on the road. if the o line continues to get healthy, that is not good for opponents.
