Very lucky, out gained 189-157 in the first half. CMU is 7-10 on 3rd down several of those 3rd and longs. Rush 16-21 for 173 and 161 QB rating in the face of pressure.
LSU just not built to cover spreads like this, I got scared away by the Syracuse scrub QB and thought their good rush D stats were inflated due to the level of competition.
