I agree the majority of the time.  Of course usually it's only 1 key guy out and then the team rallies around each other for a big performance.

In this situation, however, they just suspended 3 starters and mitchell was suspended last week(although some say that was a good thing for the team).  That is 4 starters out.

Hard to ignore this one.  I think its worth taking a shot on.

Freshmen and bench warmers..... Only guy who has both played a bit this year and isn't a freshman is Charles Hankerson. He had a huge game against Auburn the other night (3-5 from 3 point is HUGE for us, haha).

Bama wins this game folks. Vegas doesnt give freebies and this game is still on the board with Bama still the favorite.

No vaseline for LSU backers tonight

We'll see if this "inside info" pays off.

Green out is huge for them.

Sometimes these are worth taking for the 'distraction' factor too....good players missing...turmoil around the team...its enough for me

Yea, I put a bunch on LSU as soon as ESPN put the news up.  I thought I was able to get it in before my book took it off the board.  The fact that the game hasn't gone off the board and there hasn't been a huge line movement since is making me start to second guess myself.

LSU is now -1.  I don't what some of your are talking about, there has been huge movement on this line.

My initial clue was they dropped the ML to +100 on LSU even though they were still giving LSU 1-2 points.
