MY BET OF THE YEAR,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, LSU -3

who knows ....

you are talking about 17-22 year old children '

anything can happen

Maybe they choke

Maybe the QB sucks

Maybe Les Miles is forced to think

Maybe Mississippi St is the better team

Hardly the bet of the year, not even close, but I really like LSU to cover this line.  Like most, I expected it to be closer to a 6-8 point spread.  I appreciate the difficulty of winning night games on the road, and would have been more reluctant to bet LSU heavy until I saw how weak Miss St. looked against an inexperienced Auburn team. 

LSU may have their best defense since the 2003 team.  I think they will shut the MSU offense down, enjoy good field position all night, and wear the Miss St. defense down.  I still have some question about Lee at QB but he is good enough to win this one.  Mettenberg may end up as starter before the year is out.  Look for LSU to cover the line.  They will not be tested until Bama and Arky.

LSU  4X play   Thursday night weirdness will not effect this game.

another intelligent comment

I can't believe these LSU fans think this game is a no brainer ... LSU's offense will be about as plain as your granny's homemade snow cream... Way too hyped about beating an Oregon team who could not beat you with their speed, and who made too many mistakes.. Miss State much bigger and physical, than Oregon, and will be much tougher test...  I see this game being a low scoring, battle of field position, with the winner being the one who makes the least mistakes... and certainly no Sunday picnic for either team... Best of luck to you all, and looking forward to a good Thursday night game

God I love all of the homers in the College football forum. Listen, we get it. Your team is awesome and can't be stopped. No way the Mississippi State Bulldogs can cover a 3.5 Point spread at home on a Thursday night on ESPN.  Blah, Blah, Blah.  What is the point of even starting this thread? If you were a Michigan State fan, would you even bet this game? It's obvious the only reason you're betting LSU is because you're a ridiculous LSU homer. Good luck on your bet, even though I think it's bad for the wallet to bet on the team when you have no objectivity towards them.

mississippi and loiuisiana--das all it is boyz. Dont get caught up in rankings and names and shit.

You are  right on the  mark,,,,   anybody  who  follows  SEC football knows two  things.    Les Miles (LSU) is  a  very  good  team but usually  plays very  close  games and somehow  always  wins, (more power to  LSU)  and  secondly,  Dan Mullen (MSU) is  the real deal.

Miss St came  within a 4thdown . 1/2 yrd  eyelash of  beating national Champs Auburn  last  year, beat  Florida, beat Georgia, played into  OT with  Arky, and then dismantled michigan.

This  will be a  great game.   I  havent  decided who  to  play but I  will probably go  with  Miss St.   But I  confident that this is not a snap win  for LSU. and  just  because LSU  beat Oregon doesnt really mean much. 

This is the worst comment in this thread. I would rather here from LSU or MSU homers as to why their team will win and cover than have someone throw out a trend that dates back 25 years.

Does the 1992 game really have that much of an impact on tonight's game? Or even the 2002 game? Are those players suiting up tonight? Are those coaches game planning tonight?
