Awesome bowl season Bridge

@TRAIN69

 You loving some Ole Miss Train? 

@LoveCFB1_

 In chicago now .. trying to escape .. 

@TRAIN69

I got a little cheezzzola on Ole Miss .. better offense .. was leaning over before it moved but I got punk'd on a few Baylor overs this year that were real heartbrakers .. team really knows how to dick around and frankly so does Ole Miss if you check into them .. both are super duper go on 4th down tendency teams so might look bombtastic early .. might be dud drives.. think the way we do this is wait for in game quarter or so .. fade the momentum .. either way I get to hoot'n'hollar around the house wearing my ole miss hat singin some dixie and scaring everyone for a few fun bucks ..

anyway .. I got enough on it so .....

SMALLER

DIXIE -1

@Bridge1

 Come a few hours North up to Gods country in  Wisconsin 

^^^ seeing that the total went up like 7 points now I think the hope is we see defenses capable but these guys going on 4th a couple times early on couple quick scores and try to in-game the under at some rediculous number .. AI Algo-3000 knows where the in-game money is gunna dump in that scenario .. 

.. quite a bit of dickin around early on here ..

Bridge, great job all season, especially with the number of plays! Tailed you a few times, like bama/Cincinnati 1st half under. 

BRIDGE PLAY

GEORGIA / BAMA OVER 52.5

Liked total unders in the prelims H1 at 30 when we knew Cincy was gunna play w their hair on fire to start that one .. looked a little dangerous early w Bama rocketing down for a TD and Cincy also driving .. but watching Cincy dink and dunk it was clear if they were gunna contribute they would burn that clock w no explosive capability and sure enough couldn't convert drives into TD's either .. Bama just needed to lean on them all game and grab an easy win. Was surprised how easy they ran the ball .. 300 yds on the ground and that chewed up ALOT of clock also even w Bama O pretty quick to snap the ball .. Obvi we liked UGA to throttle Michigan off a Bama loss and plenty of time to spend picking away at the mismatches vs Wolvo's .. big picture mismatch there was if UGA shut their run down the game was over .. Mich not anywhere near capable of effecting a close game by leading w their pass game .. Epic Mich run game <100 yds .. 3.4/carry .. even adjust out the 4 sacks and yer left w RB's <50 .. Blake Corum 13 yds and Haskins 39 yds .. 2 plays account for most of their 49 yds .. 

Diff story in this matchup, Bama with many many more angles of attack with the talent available and coaches play designs, etc .. had a funny feeling Saban wouldn't show show us all his cards last game and elect to run the ball .. 62% runs vs Cincy when they are usually ~50/50 on the year .. Bama wasn't bulldozing the Bulldogs running the ball last game and end up seeing 62% passing .. but recall Robinson was iffy and pass game was working so well .. think we end up w something in the middle here Metchie out hurts but they've had well over a month of time to work in their many replacements, plenty of talented folks and Robinson pretty unhampered last game looked real good .. A concern floating around in the mediasphere is Bama's OL esp now w RG Ekiyor injured maybe out next game but replacement's PFF grade was pretty solid .. Cincy did get some pressure and that's a concern but alot of the passing came in predictable spots .. this same OL more/less held UGA off completely in the first matchup and have Robinson healthy .. gotta trust Bama will have a few answers .. 

Also trust UGA to have more luck converting their drives into points .. SEC champ game Bennett 29/48 for 340 and the frustrating part is really good drives that stalled deep in Bama territory .. Bama 11 FG, Bama 19 Pick, Bama 19 Downs .. 24 points scored and left another 18 on drives they didn't convert in the RZ .. I think Bookies give us a decently bigger total if we saw UGA convert a couple of those .. I expect their run game to pick up some slack as well .. 

The struggle hitting the total is a prolonged start with both teams struggling to move the ball / coaches playing more chess with FP .. Its also a bit unsettling to bet on Kirby to break outta that style of game but writings on the wall here lack of offense punching in TD's cost him a champ a few years ago and left points in the RZ again this time .. they convert those 3 drives for TD's (in a vacuum) and maybe a likely win w 42 points eh? .. also big picture in these uber talented CFP matchups is that the top offenses have the advantage vs the top defenses and were getting 4 to 5 below average scoring, both offense have the ability to go yard on one play .. defense/ST very capable of contributing as well .. not quite the lock of the century that Utah/OSU over was but I def like the prospects of both teams driving the ball successfully and think we're well positioned if they can add on just a few big plays ..  

SMALLER

GEORGIA -2.5 

Ugh .. wasn't gunna even post it because its not a huge play but .. its the natty .. F it .. had a fun bowl season and just wouldn't be right to not pick a team here .. UGA clearly no answer to what Bama was doing to them in the last matchup and will rely on them cleaning some of that up .. also got unlucky or on some of their drives .. ~450 yds of offense last game I think they'll get refocused and find the end zone this time around .. 2.5 is theee most I would go, I hit this one when it came out think we're getting more 3's where I'd be less interested just incase Kirby does play stupid and not play for a win by margin .. again .. smaller bet .. obvi hoping much more to see some offensive fireworks in this game ..

Good luck!

@UNIMAN

Thx dude .. Rocky start w the BRIDGE PLAYS going 0-3 and a few others I liked got the sniffles and cancelled .. but yeahhhh buddy tide turned .. 6-0 BP's to close'er out and last 3 plays w that H1 Under 30, UGA-7 and OSU/Utes Over landing so perfectly... felt prettyyyyyyyyyyy good .. 

Yeah I did that eagle river deal in the summer, great time and we went right by clintonville like you were talking about nice little town.. everything good clean and nice up there .. hmm .. wonder why .. 

@Bridge1

 Excellent work by both you and BA on the bowls! Thank you and BOL going forward

TEAM TOTAL 

KANSAS STATE OVER 26.5

Just dialed up the depth chart and its a real whose who for LSU as in who is this guy esp on D .. Secondary features Darren Evans who was maybe the 5th CB to start the year but he's played 11 games and has a pretty decent 400 snaps .. Jay Ward at safety was maybe #3 behind Cam Lewis and Major Burns is the other key starter w 600 snaps .. the other safety corner and NB have under 100 snaps combined this year .. McGhee the starting corner only has 3 snaps ..  starting LB's were #3 and #5 in snaps this year and any rotation at LB will be seeing their first action of the year, maybe in college idk .. missing another 5 starters / contributors from DL's / DE's and inexperience will be rotating in .. 

Outside the D the QB sitch is bad or really bad .. I assume nussmeier preserved his redshirt and can play? .. if not idk beatwriters doubt whether the 2nd QB will actually play or they'll play some kinda wildcat .. OL has a few guys back but its the same couple backups at every spot .. RB hit w Davis-Price out .. he wants no part of this one .. WR group hit w Boutte out .. 

I think we can trust K-State to win by 4.5 here but line moved so significantly maybe LSU snaps into it and wants to play idk .. Wildcats by all accounts are showing up ready and normally think K-State slug fest / low score but combo of Thompson and Deuce vs that D with the coaching sitch and who knows how many guys they end up wanting to play here maybe quite a few .. feels pretty good that K-St will find plenty of shots to land in this game .. 

I hadn’t even considered Cats TT.  Mahalo! 

@wolfeman3

LSU and K-State prob moving slow in this game, LSU might end up running out of the wildcat if nussmeier can't play and sounds like theyr'e being quiet about his status / can he keep the redshirt if he plays which is apparently the deciding factor .. or maybe it won't be, who knows .. Otherwise LSU has the better part of their OL and just missing the one WR which stings but other starters in and TEs too so who knows what we get on that side of the ball .. .. interim coach is their OL guy expect quite a bit of running here and likely fewer possessions, K-State not known for a hurry up offense either .. so very well could be tricky getting that 26.5 due to a quick clock but LSU's D might be in just really bad shape here and K-State was much better scoring w Thompson, almost 70% completion rate = way easier to move the ball w him around .. we'll see .. good luck!

After leading LSU to a victory over Texas A&M and making the team bowl eligible, Johnson announced he would enter the transfer portal. That left the Tigers and interim head coach Brad Davis without a quarterback. The team requested a waiver from the NCAA to allow Nuss to play and keep his redshirt status.

Under NCAA eligibility rules a player can appear in no more than four games to keep the season from counting towards their eligibility. According to Brody Miller of The Athletic (subscription required), the waiver wasn’t granted and it appears Nussmeier won’t burn that redshirt.

Freshmen walk-on quarterbacks Tavion Faulk and Matt O'Dowd are expected to be the Tigers' two options at quarterback against Kansas State. Faulk won a state championship at Carencro last season and is the nephew of LSU running backs coach Kevin Faulk, while O'Dowd passed up a scholarship offer from Davidson to join the Tigers.

Jontre Kirklin, a senior wideout, is a potential third option at quarterback. Kirklin played the position in high school and was a scout team quarterback for the Tigers in 2019.

great job...

Nooooo sweat ... 

@Bridge1

 Good call!! 
I wish I would have put more than 2 units on K-State! 
Oh well. 
what the heck are we going to do for the next 8 months? 

@LoveCFB1_

 Ha dude idk .. i don't bet on other stuff .. was nice to romp last spring FCS .. would be so great if they moved there permanently was alot of fun. 

@DrStrangelove

 Yeah not looking good for them .. and think we saw the best punches from the defense and now all those no name subs gunna have to get the TFL's and pressure or just need K-St to start making mistakes .. could happen but if not feels like deuce/thompson just do whatever they want here ..
