How are you not an incredible pussy if you start this thread without a photo of your ticket betting LSU giving the points for at least four figures?

And the o line is questionable

Unproven QB, Oline, RBs, WRs, DLine, LBs, new coaches on both sides of the ball, and being displaced for a week before the first game may have something to do with it.

I might put five figures on this. This is the easiest money I’ve ever made. LSU is easily three touchdowns better


I put 5 dimes on LSU when we played Wisconsin. Didn’t think a bunch of slow white boys could whip us. I think despite all the unknowns and our team being displaced I’d put that 5 figures on LSU money line. I love the sound of winning by 3 tds but frankly other than we know we have a team littered with 4 and some 5 star recruits we don’t know shite about our team with all these new coaches.

Maybe but we did have Les Miles and if I remember correctly that sundevils team had a high draft pick QB playing for them as well as a decent coach AND it was Les Miles first game.

This will not be the same!

I got 15 hunnert on LSU -3.5. I think it's easy money. Sometimes those sure things don't pan out, though. I just think we have way too much talent to lose this. It's also our first game of the season in a historic setting, so I think an A+ effort is virtually guaranteed.

I am new to this, where do people bet at? Online is what I am talking about. LSU seems to be attractive here.

There is only one question in this game. Can we stop UCLA's off tackle runs?

I wish tyler shelvin was playing but we have some guys up front who can shed blocks and stop the run. Our LB's getting out of position is a big concern, but I think Blake Baker is a good coach and they will play much better than last year.

Overall, if we stop the run we win this game period. LSU wins this game by more than 3 for sure.

I think so as well and thanks for the name. It might be closer first half, I am pretty sure UCLA being home helps, but unless we shoot ourselves in the foot I think we pull well ahead and run away with it.

Inexperienced QB, brand new coordinators that have never called plays before, awful 2020 season

Our o-line was terrible last year.

Our defense was even worse.

We are razor thin at RB.

There are still plenty of questions on Johnson's ability as a QB.

We have 2 coordinators that have never been coordinators before.

I'm surprised our fans are as confident as they are heading into this game.

If you would’ve waited until about an hour before kick you would’ve probably been able to get LSU at least at -2.5 or -2. I knew that if UCLA beat Hawaii bad they would get a bunch of public $.

ML -138 is the way to go if you think we can only win by 1 or 2.

spread is currently -2.5 which means u have to win by 3

I hear you, but I bet on this game 2 months ago in Philly. I live in VB,VA and we don't have a sports book here. I go to a few Phillies and Eagles games each year. I prefer betting cash instead of by app, especially when I'm betting a lot. VB is supposed to be getting a book here in early 2022.

If you’re so confident, bet the farm on this game.

I’ll never complain or question easy money.

The talent gap is so wide, hell if he can just get the talent to play as a team we should cover and then some.

I hate to be this guy, but there’s a lot of unknowns with LSU. Is our QB play improved from last year with Max at the helm? Is our defense going to be recovered from having Pelini as the DC?

I think it’s gonna be a close game, but on paper our talent is far better. Chip Kelly is a great coach.
