Maybe because of our great defense. I looked at the KY game stats and aTm led in stats in most categories. The 2 interceptions was really the difference. Our offense is limping in along with aTm needing wins or chance of playoffs are slim to none with the rest of the schedule. I see a close defensive game. We have to contain Reed from slicing up our defense like he has the past 2 years. The +8.5 for LSU I do not see it. LSU wins by 4 or 5 points. Something like, this will be a hard fought game. Their QB is better then SL. Clark needs to see action in this one.

LSU 31
aTm 26

It's a bit of a stinky line that is seemingly begging the public to take A&M...(the inference is that is good for LSU)

According to Dandy Don yesterday, the line opened at 3 and is now 8.5, and the over/under opened at 57.5 and a couple of days later is now 52,5.
Why the big difference?
That is unusual without some reason.

At the end of the 3rd quarter it was 28-7 Kentucky, and the yardage was 340-249 in Kentucky's favor. A&M got a bunch of empty calorie yards in the 4th when the game was out of reach and Kentucky went into clock running mode on offense

The +8.5 for LSU


LSU is -8.5, not +8.5.

This would be an inexcusable loss. Period

LSU should win by double digits if they play like they did in the 2nd half or if the defense just plays like they normally do at home. It's not a bad line, TAMU has regressed a lot

Just like it was in 2022. That was an awful Texas A&M that beat LSU.

Josh Pate’s line has us at -8.5 as well. He’s usually pretty spot on. Last week, he thought OM should have been favored.

I feel like we should cover, but Leavitt has to improve and Lane has to let Baker draw up his own gameplan.

If we play this week like we did last week, we won't cover.
