Favorites: 10 Pickem: 1 Underdog: 1 O/U LSU wins at 8.5 So, bet the over?


That's not how it works. LSU could be hypothetically be favored in every single game (let's say 51% chance of winning) and their expected win total would be just over 6 games.

If Tony starts all season, I Can see them reaching 10 wins easily. He really has put it all together this offseason. Excited to see him hit the field and lead the team.

Another site had LSU at 8.5 wins. This shows 8 wins w/o the rent a wins. ???

No, it doesn't. It shows that LSU would be favored in 7 games with an 8th game being even odds.

Don't let your hopes cloud your foresight. They're going to be good.

Good point. Just cause you're favored doesn't mean you'll win. Thanks.

I liked +14 against Alabama in 2013 then proceeded to get the drunkest I've ever gotten after that money loss.

LSU favored by 3 at Mississippi State

This line should only get closer. LSU by less than a field goal against Mississippi State is tasty as frick. They lose a ton and it's too early in the season for them to be jelled together. LSU plays Mississippi State at the perfect time.

For this season, 9-3 and a bowl win is good. 10-3. And I'm not a defeatist.

Too many new parts to expect more. Steele/Yaw Yaw, QB situation.

But all the so called experts just pencil Bama in as a top 1-4 team every year... So 9-3 is NOT GOOD... For this year at LSU 9-3 would be a great season IMO.............

I would take Syracuse +20.

I would take South Carolina + 8

I would lay Alabama -9.

Unless Payton Manning is gonna be our QB, I think it is going to be tough on the road.

I think we're going to curb stomp Syracuse. I'd lay 20.

I have no idea on USCe. They have an underrated HFA, though.

Agree that I'd probably lay the points with Bama.
