Why do you say that? Did someone blew us out? No one picked us to win the SEC championship, or the National Championship. If we lose to Florida, it is somewhat expected. Ohio St is a team that got exposed, not LSU.

And LSU plays well at night, also.

Lets see, it was a night game 8 years ago...maybe 10, that a young inexperienced LSU team went into the swamp and beat the shit out of a very good Florida team. It was over at halftime, the stadium was 3 quaters empty midway thru the 3rd quater. After the game ended and we were leaving the stadium.......You never would have even known a football game had been played because all of the gator fans had already cleared out and went home.  But the Gainsville police dept was right on top of things writing open alcohol container tickets to all the LSU fans partying outside near the bars and their tailgate partys.
 
With that said,  Love the Tigers in this spot........Defense will show up.....Tebow will be crying again like last year!

LSU looks like good value here taking the points. LSU on paper seems dominant on defense allowing minimal avg yds per game.
I know they played 2 or 3 weak teams already this season to throw off that number but LSU was always known for their defense.
 
I don't know but seems like a closer game to me possibly down to the wire last second field goal to win for either side so taking LSU seems like a good value to me.
 
I gotta think about this one.

I've got family in Morgan city Lous. out 1hr from the dome.  LSU thrives on the spot light and 2 defensive players have actually been qouted in the news for saying they cant wait to take tebow out of the game no matter what it takes!!!

So i say to yall, lsu looks to really hurt this gator team and im taking lsu money line..6 is to many point here.... i agree with bigdaddy.. very close game.

Some of you people that think UF will win by double digits have lost your damn minds. LSU wins this game outright.

I prefer the value of taking the points as oppose to the ML. I see this as a close one I'm still hesitant of LSU QB Lee handling the pressure of a big game like this in the Swamp. A lot of key vet players on offense and defense are already in the NFL who could handle the pressure of a big game like this. I'm sure coach Les Miles doesn't have the same confidence of going for it on 4th and 2 without Hester behind there anymore.

All in all I'm just trusting the LSU defense to keep it close not too sure about the SU.

Hope that helps bro

I like LSU as a fan, but I don't like the way the line is moving for them, so I am on Florida.

Florida -6. GLTA

I am defenitely taking LSU here for sure, LSU is more dominant up front and will control the Line. They will win this close game..

 

LSU +6

LSU ML (small bet)

chad2322-- sorry brother I'm not touching that game. I have been terrible on Thursday games so getting the under on Tues gave me the chance to look for better plays on the weekend instead of chasing during the weekday.

Good luck on this week

Leaning on LSU here, this team is very physical up front and always tends to hang in there if not win these games in the end. LSU is getting Beckwith back this week which is a big boost for them. If the O line plays like they should Charles Scott should go over 100 yards and start getting some Heisman attention. If the defense can get to Tebow often I can see LSU winning this game. LSU seems to be a better second half team so I will be looking at maybe taking LSU at the half. The money line might also be worth looking at on this one.

LSU is the more physical team here with advantages on both the offensive and defensive fronts.  Florida's offense is just not in synch so far this season as they have been unable to find a true running back.  Coming off a bye week, LSU should be rested and healthy.  Anything can happen in CFB, and especially at night in the SEC, but take the points on this one.

Crawfish sounds good at 7,5 which is where my local is now but agree with eairlier poster that Gator's are nasty in the swamp at night and as a matter of fact so will the crowd. Am thinkin if the line falls little will go for the gators if not gotta go cajun.Time will tell some great games this Sat. Good luck to all,

However, if we play like we did against Arkansas or ole miss, there will be a lot of pissed off drunk gator fans after this one gets out.  Since it is a night game, and not an early morning game, we should play extremely well.  Gators take it home here

Gators     31
LSU        17

In your dreams. LSU will either win this game outright or keep it within 3 points. You seriously hit your head if you think LSU D is going to give up 31 points to FL. GL Pal
