    I find it interesting that most LSU fans are saying they wouldn't touch this one, with the line at -22, which is what they have posted on Tiger Rant. They expect the game to be closer.

    LSU -22, O/U of 50.5. Vegas expects a 36/37 to 14 type of game. I see why the tiger fans won't touch that. They didn't put up that many points against SELA, and although our defense isn't spectacular, we're light years better than SELA.

    Re: Timing of LSU game

    Many of their fans will remember the jump pass and how it took 4 quarters to beat us that night. If we play inspired and they come out sluggish, I can see this being a good game. You know the crowd won’t be into it, even if the stadium is full. I have never been to tigger stadium for one of our games and noticed a deafening silence that I am sure SEC opponents face down there.

    At that time, LSU went against a (3-6) Dooley led team. We were coming into Baton Rouge with three consecutive losses against Utah State, Idaho, Boise State.

    I'm not sure what Vegas had for the game, but I imagine many folks thought it would be a blow out.

    Re: Timing of LSU game

    I was talking to a good friend (and LA Tech grad) earlier today. When he heard LA Tech was a 22-point underdog to LSU by Vegas, he laughed out loud. I mean, it was a genuine belly laugh. His exact response was, "I'm embarrassed. So, how many decades does Tech have to play FBS football before we can expect something a little closer??"

    Point taken. LA Tech should be long past a 22-point underdog status. Against anyone. That's bush league.

    Win games that matter, then we might legitimize ourselves.

    Just because vegas sees it that way, doesn’t make it so. I think it moved to 20 last I checked. This is where we HAVE to prove them wrong.

    Re: Timing of LSU game

    There are P5s, Rutgers comes to mind, who would be a bigger dog than -22 at LSU. And lots of G5s who would also be a bigger dog than we are.

    I understand the point, but let's not get too upset about this. Just do something about it the only place it matters: on the field Saturday.

    21 points is exactly what I expected. Why would this seem out of line? Take a look at some of the odds for this week (just P5 against P5).

    Illinois is a 28-pt underdog to Penn State
    Arkansas is a 30-pt underdog at Auburn
    Texas A&M is a 26.5-pt. underdog to Alabama

    I would be a lot more upset if I was Texas A&M! $75 million dollar coach and you're four touchdown underdogs to somebody, even Alabama!

    The current odds for the Tech - LSU game fall right in line with the Sagarin Rating. #11 LSU 86.33 #85 LATech 64.77, difference of 21.56. That's even better than I would expect because Sagarin usually adds 3 points for home-field advantage.

    I agree, but it wasn't that long ago that we were 14 pt underdogs to ULL.

    Dawg80 has the right idea. Prove them wrong on the field.

    22 pt dogs to the #6 team in the polls is actually not that bad on the surface. We have a chance to make some noise Saturday. I hope we take it.
