Vegas puts its self in the middle of the money. so yes, more money has been grabbing Florida and the points, so the spread shrinks to position the money back in the middle.

How is dropping the line bringing in more money in the UF side?

Chester, no offensive production. Another Clemson defensive game. Except Lagway can run and Nuss is a puss on running.

Because it’s LSU vs Florida and 9.5 points is insane no matter how good or bad either team is.
Jayden Daniels beat Florida by 10 points @ Florida his first year, then by 18 points his 2nd year at home.

Also, Florida isn’t as bad as people think they are, & LSU isn’t as good.
Florida is definitely as bad as many think they are. They have talent, but Napier has yet to give up play calling, Lagway lost tons of prep time in during Fall practices because of injury, and that defense nor OL is as stout as people believe.

If LSU gets the run game fixed, there is no team i would bet on beating them.

Then dropping the line would be counter-productive to that goal

TG & BM are likely out against UF, dropping the spread keeps the money in Vegas


I’m not sure what “keeping the money in Vegas” means

9.5 is a big, big number for LSU/UF

It’s almost always a close one score game. That’s way too many points. Even in 2019 it was back and forth all game. FL and AU were two of the closest games we played in 2019 and both were at home. We’re a better team and should win but I’d still be surprised if it isn’t somewhat close like the Clemson game.
Jayden Daniels beat Florida by double digits both years. Won by 18 his 2nd year.

Losing to USF was a blessing in disguise for Florida. You'll see on Saturday night a UF team loaded with determination: fire in their eyes, and grit in their gizzard.

Because ppl have now actuallly reviewed just how pooorly LSU performed last week and have lost 2 key offensive players to boot.

No matter how good rhe defense plays this offense will keep the game within reach for florida.

Meh.

Margin of victory for last 3 -

2024 - 11 points
2023 - 17 points
2022 - 10 points

Now, there were quite a few 1-score from about 2004 through 2021 (10 out of 18).

This is very easy. Too much money came in on Florida at the 9.5 so they need some money to start coming in on LSU

That's what I call bringing it. We'd have never known if you hadn't told us. Thank you.

No run game, no O-line, no red zone offense, and a mediocre-at-best quarterback.

LSU is 6-1 in the last 7 games vs. Florida at home with an average margin of victory of 14 points. In fact, the fewest points LSU has won by in those 6 wins is 7 points.
