LSU is currently favored by 9.5 points. It has been as high as 10 and as low as 9. The over/under in the game is 54 points.
Going by the odds the score will be LSU winning 32-23.


If UK can contain the running game, I see UK hanging around and potentially have an upset. What worries me is the offensive line containing their defensive line.

considering LSU is no.1 and UK is number 17.

Things could be very interesting tomorrow.

That LSU coach is a wizard and can read plays better than anybody in the land. Luck in Lexington will have to play a big part if UK wins.

Wizard? He has some definite attributes, but I don't think wizardry is one of them. Recruiting, motivation, yes, but wizardry? I see definite bonehead potential in Miles.

Miles is one of the hottest coaches around. Time will tell if he decides to go back to Ann Arbor.
I have a lot of respect for Miles and he should be given some credit for taking some chances against Florida and getting the W. If he would have played conservative-LSU loses that game against the gators.

The line seems about right. . . But 54 points is a lot of points. I think I would take the under.

Actually, I like getting the Cats at home and 9½ points.

GO BIG BLUE!

I will be the first to admit that LSU has one hell of a coach and that you probably are right, luck will be needed for the upset to occur, most likely. I feel that LSU is a legit #1 team (unlike my feelings towards USC when they held that spot) and that LSU probably runs the table (especially if they make it past UK and Auburn).

I was however unaware that his alma mater was that of Hogwarts...impressive to say the least. Did he by chance spend any time coaching there as well? If so, what kind of bowl games did he take them to? I'm just unaware of their athletic programs (other then Quidditch) so I'd be interested in this information. I bet he had some success at that institution because he is one hell of a coach and recruiter so I bet he had some VERY impressive young players in his time there. It is pretty hard for a smaller school like that to keep some mystifying coaching staffs together. If I were to venture a guess as to his coaching staff while he were there, I'd say his Defensive Coordinator was probably Severus Snape. His Offensive Coordinator was probably Dumbledore maybe while his Special Teams Coach was maybe that of Hagrid. I think that's a pretty solid coaching staff. The kids that he had playing for him pretty well would have consisted of QB Harry Potter. Joining Potter in the backfield was a solid back by the name of Ron Weasley. Moaning Myrtle was a pretty slippery WR that seemed to, at times just disappear and be found downfield for a great reception. Neville Longbottom was the kid that was All-Conference DT that anchored that defense. Draco Malfoy, if memory serves me correctly, was the 2nd Team All American chioce as a CB. He also would have coached former number 1 draft pick and 1st Team All American Lord Voldemort who still holds several records to this day as a MLB... The more I think about it, the more terrified I am of playing against this wizard...just look at the talent level he achieved in just a few short years at a school that small.
