I think both teams are pretty equal (team speed, defense, OL, RB, WR. Yes, this is basically a home game for LSU, but I like the +4. If it were 3 I might feel differently.

I don't think a lot of people have looked at this game from this angle. My main reason for liking OSU over LSU is coaching. Not a big fan of Miles. I think he'll make some questionable decisions tonight that will make a negative difference for the Tigers and Tressel will make the better decisions. Tressel wins this game for OSU on the sidelines.

Ohio State +4 2 units

Under 47 1/2 2 units

Everyone and their brother knows Miles is a riverboat gambling idiot. But despite him hey lost only 2 games. Both in overtime. If your betting solely on the coach, I think you'll be making a mistake. Coaching goods to OSU. The Team goes to LSU. Which would you rather have?

I'd like to wish you good luck. But I hope you get stomped.

Good Luck in the pro this weekend.

Fluidoz, you can say that LSU lost only two games this year, with both of them being close OT losses, but the fact is this LSU team isn't a "great" team. They're good, but not great. They could have easily lost to Bama, Auburn and Tennessee as well and finished with four to five losses.

But they didn't. They lost 2 in OT in the SEC.Put OSU in the SEC and how many loses would they have. Do you really think the would have won the SEC. NO WAY. Their just lucky they play in the weak Big 10. Or they wouldn't even be here. Sorry brother but I think you are wrong. Good Luck with everything else.

Well, that's why they play the games, lol. I actually like LSU as a fan, but I think this will be a hard fought, low scoring game. I hope LSU wins by 3, but I just don't think they're all that good nor all that well coached.

G/L to you.

OSU 24
LSU 21

GL Longhorn. I'm on the Bucks for the same reasons you mentioned. Colossal advantage in the coaching department (probably one of the bigger mismatches of the year IMO). And every time I watched LSU this year they had to scratch and claw to squeak out a W. I give them credit for pulling those games out, but like you said, they could be close to a .500 team. And I think they will have their hands full with that OSU D.

GL...

Boy I was off on this game. Congrats to the LSU and over players. This thing just snowballed after OSU got up 10-0.
