LSU is a much faster team with better athletes. Coaching advantage AM, Special teams enormous advantage LSU. LSU will be motivated to play they always are in bowl games. Last year the field condition negated the team speed and clock management cost us the game. I couldn't be more confident LSU wins this game. LSU is healthy and when given time to prepare LSU does play very well. 4-1 in bowl games and if you look at our record off a BYE its outstanding!

Better to be lucky than good

LSU is the luckier team, everyone knows this. Beware the Hat.

As for tangibles... LSU's only two losses were vs. Auburn (best team in the history of the universe jk jk jk) and Arkansas - who had childs at the time and didn't drop 25% of their passes like the sugar and had that lucky play right before halftime.

Didn't watch the NEB-ATM game but just the scoreboard saying they only put up 9 points on Nebraskas defense makes me feel like they may struggle in the redzone vs. quality defenses. LSU defense is as good as it gets. Definitely more talented team. Played a tougher schedule (even the SEC OOC schedule haters can't argue this)

Game is far from "easiest pick of the bowls" that was Bama.

I'd say take the under. I have to pick a side for my football pool, LSU is the side IMO.

I went to Baton Rouge and watched LSU/WVU---I thought LSU would lose several SEC games because they were so bad on offense. WVU gave them 17 of the 20 points they scored.

I played A&M because I think they can shut LSU down and the game is in Dallas.

If LSU is going to beat me----It will have to be Jefferson doing it. I like my chances.

If I remember right, that was when Johnson was at QB and I can't remember if Von Miller was still hurt or not. A&M is a totally different team with Tannehill at QB and Miller on defense. Jerrod Johnson lost the Oklahoma St. game by himself. Of course the SEC guys think this is the easiest pick of the bowl season, I on the other hand, think it will be one of the best games of the season. Hard to say who wins, but I think the bet is the under.

U are correct, not the same team that played arkansas.... My point in saying what I did was that this probably has alot to do with why the line only came out as 1.

Might consider this. Everyone seems to think that the line coming out as a pk made LSU a look like a lock and now everyone is second guessing themselves. In the past I've seen Vegas do this to make the public think the weaker team is stronger than they are. If Vegas can confuse the public, they will. Not playing the game but thought I would throw that out for consideration. Think LSU will come to play tonight and win. Good luck everyone
