    LSU should have a solid defense this year. Their offense, well... Two changeups with offensive coordinators, a QB with 7 TD's and 10 INTs last season. Everyone says what a running threat he is, yet he averaged 3.7 yards per rush and had less rushing yards (FAR less passing yards) than Thomas. They lost their best RB. Their OL is often described as big and nasty, but Oregon matches up just fine. Their DL often over-attacks, and most of us know what Oregon does in that situation. Their LB's are a weak-link with average pursuit and open field tackling. James, Barner and Thomas are going to pose some tough matchup issues and I except Paulson to have a field day.

    Keeping in mind this is an offense that is new at key positions and last year, scored 27 on Vandy, 16 vs Tenn (and should have lost).

    I think it's lower scoring than expected....

    Oregon 25
    LSU 20

    Although I don't usually bet over/unders I will make an exception in this case. You're on. No way the Ducks score 24 against LSU in Cowboys Stadium.

    :) I'm ok with the 24, he knows he was talking crap and got called out for it, and challenged (and probably offended at the stakes comment) But I got his attention and the bet :cheers:

    Would be interested to see what you guys predicted for the Auburn game. Just to see your credibility when it comes to this stuff. I actually thought we would lose to Auburn, but in a 42-40 kinda' game.

    Thinking back, I don't believe I made a prediction because I didn't want to jinx it. Making predictions about meaningless games is one thing, but making predictions about the championship game is a whole different story.

    I didn't predict that the grounds crew would soak the field so much before the NCG that neither side could make a cut. That really took away from the game and had everything to do with the low scoring from both sides. Thats just another reason I'm glad this game is on turf.

    Oregon 23, LSU 19.

    This post by a so-called "expert" explains why (and has good videos).

    definite hollow victory. But at least they got more than 10 points earlier than that ;)
