USC +4 over LSU . 4 units
Under 67. 4 units
Lots to consider here. Both teams lost their starting QB's and both were extremely good with passer ratings of over 170 and 192 last season.
This is important today, because Both teams will never achieve the average scoring per game as a year ago when they were scoring 42 and 46 pts per game.
The main reason the scoring was high, was because they had overwhelming percentages on 1st downs by passing the ball.
Thats going to diminish the success in yards passing per attempt this year which makes the field longer per play.
Neither team was good defensively last year - but now both are facing much lower scoring potentials with each team today.
Im with USC because they returned 9 defensive starters and that where the advantage is in this game today.
Last time they did that 4 years ago - they allowed only 26 pts per game.
Now last note; Road games are lower scoring and Both teams are on the road!
Remember the Ga Tech game last Saturday...
Yo, I don’t troll, but I did follow you in baseball without posting responses.
Just been biding time and saving money till football.
Maybe it’s because when they were played, and that nothing else was on, but the two games that stick out in my mind are FSU/Georgia Tech and USC/LSU.
I don’t know why I didn’t give you more credit and cred. You nailed all three (I’m including the total for USC). And you had the balls to go with the Georgia Tech moneyline when it’s sideline was 10 1/2.
Congrats on those. I will follow you more. Follow as in copy, join, replicate, duplicate, wager-ate, etc.-ate.
I hope everyone in this forum is respectful and shares in a unity of siblinghood. I would say brotherhood but don’t want to get canceled.
Seriously, I don’t see the usefulness of calling out another’s losing plays and then calling posters names. If everybody did that, this forum will be filled with “you can’t pick worth a shit you fucking loser” posts.
Civili discourse and respectful dissent, along with meaningful praise and accolades when appropriate, is what would bring me back here more, rather than what’s across the street.
We are all in this together to win.
Here’s to a good season for all (except the books).
