Fowler just said on the post game show that it was LSU -3. Man, it didn't take long for that to change.

Looks like books who came out with the first lines did have it at 3,3'.
LSU was immediately pounded, and the lines rose.
Westgate took a $55,000 bet at -4 right outta the gate.
Places are from 4' to 6 now.
That?s crazy. Pretty sure i saw Clem -1 or -1? as of yesterday morning in potential title game lines.

A couple tip sheets had early prediction spread of LSU -1 another had Clemson -1 1/2, those were not Vegas lines however, only tip sheet predicted lines

Sagarin numbers have Clemson a 1/2 pt fav and total of 57 1/2?
This game is being played in New Orleans and there should be some advantage there as well as 2 weeks for both teams to heal especially RB for LSU.
Heisman winner in title game ATS doesn't fare well and most numbers have this game on paper as being a pickem.
Clemson didn't sell me as the better team vs Ohio St, they did on the scoreboard, OSU failed to execute putting up FGs instead of RPO and QB/WR at end of game for OSU had a miscommunication on the route? Fields is better than than and he could have ran more than he did. Lawrence is good but I really think LSU's team speed ends up exposing a weakness vs Clemson just as UNC did in near upset in Chapel Hill earlier this season.
There should be some points in this tilt by 69 or 70? It's quite possible, but LSU will try to tone down Clemson's running game so turnovers will have to come in play somewhere and both teams don't turn it over much.
Clemson 45 ppg, allow 11 ppg
LSU 49 ppg, allow 21 ppg
Clemson with +7 turnover margin edge, both teams with good kickers. Both teams with top round NFL talent as well.
Looking like a 37-34 type game on paper.
Thoughts?
