Since this game is kind of a sloppy splatter fart from a bean burrito of a football game, it yet it still is a legit big conference game to start the season off tonight. Anyway, predictions just for the shit of it? Will Croom prove that MSU doesn't overwhelmingly suck all the time? Will LSU be stunned?

I call 27-10 here. I know this thread is lame but ya gotta start somewhere.

8/30/2007 3:04:16 PM

$texas - $rhode_island LSU over MSU

8/30/2007 3:06:04 PM

technically, its not the first game...

but I say 38-10 LSU

8/30/2007 3:20:12 PM

first game of some remote consequence tho

8/30/2007 3:25:58 PM

I predict 42-7 LSU in a rout.

8/30/2007 3:26:19 PM

LSU 30 - 12 MSU

MSU flirts, but only comes away w/ 4 field goals

8/30/2007 3:29:23 PM

^^^ in a betting world, all games count

8/30/2007 3:30:52 PM

speaking of betting, here are my "stone cold, lead pipe, take them out behind the woodshed" locks for week 1 (in protest of that bullshit thread)


Week 1 (4 Star Scale)

*
Kent State +4 vs. Iowa State
Auburn -13.5 vs. Kansas St.

**
Washington -3 vs. Syracuse
Central Florida +8 vs. NC State
OK. State +6.5 vs. Georgia

***
Georgia Tech +2.5 vs. ND (the 2.5 is a sucker bet)
USC -45 vs. Idaho
LSU - 18 vs. Miss. State
Colorado -2.5 vs. Colorado State

****
UL-Lafayette +29 vs. South Carolina
Missouri -5 vs. Illinois






and a rarity for Week 1... a top dollar, bet the farm, book the cruise, endangered species, Goose taking down Iceman, off the charts, barometric bruiser, scale busting 5-star lock:

Ole Miss/Memphis U50.5

THANK GOD College football season, NFL, and college basketball are in succession of one another...WOOO-HOOO!

8/30/2007 5:30:18 PM

I dont really enjoy unlike

8/30/2007 5:31:15 PM

LSU rolls and doesnt have to show much of their offense to do so.

8/30/2007 5:49:53 PM

MSU keeps it somewhat close in the first half........second half LSU dominates and runs away with it

LSU: 38
MSU: 13

8/30/2007 6:11:59 PM

Yo JayB I got LSU @ -17.5 at 5dimes.com .. I wanna call that a lock but we'll have to wait and see.. I think it's gonna be something like 45-3 or there abouts, the LSU defense is supposed to be nasty.

[Edited on August 30, 2007 at 6:31 PM. Reason : s]

8/30/2007 6:31:12 PM

yeah, miss state will be lucky to get close to the endzone.

8/30/2007 6:33:17 PM

^^ yeah, Miss. State did make improvements as the year went on last year so they could possible keep it close, but as I said, I see it 38-10

8/30/2007 6:38:03 PM

ahhh, college football -- where 90% of the games aren't competitive

Wow way to just group everyone together asshole. Nobody like baseball or Nascar because I think they suck.

8/30/2007 6:43:11 PM

^^ 90% is way too high, and even if it wasnt the good old spread makes even that meaningless

[Edited on August 30, 2007 at 6:43 PM. Reason : d]

8/30/2007 6:43:37 PM

What does a spread have to do with anything? In terms of just entertainment value, lack of competitive games is a problem.

8/30/2007 6:50:18 PM

because you dont care so much about the score, you care about the score + the spread. Will USC lose to Idaho? no. Will they beat them by fucking 45? you dont know, so therefore its interesting to watch.

8/30/2007 6:53:03 PM

you gotta put $$$ on the game, then you'll be entertained.

LSU beat Miss state 48-17 last season .. just checked the lines again and was going to put some more $$$ at the 17.5 line but it shot up to 19.5 .. the public is pounding LSU or a some smart money came in.

8/30/2007 6:54:16 PM

heh, Rutgers is already up 7-0. Big punt return then rice with a nice run for the td.

8/30/2007 7:11:47 PM

so it looks like they've gone to the same espn score box that they started for pro sports last year.. figured.. but it looks horrible on SD. I don't mind it at all in HD, looks pretty nice.

looks like they even have stats after a lot of plays for that player pop up

8/30/2007 7:45:27 PM

hah. where's the unsporstmanlike conduct against murray state? He didn't have to dive.

[Edited on August 30, 2007 at 7:56 PM. Reason : Murray State v. Louisville on ESPNU]

8/30/2007 7:53:42 PM

I'd do her.

And I'm rooting for MSU solely because of the respective team starters intros.

So who wrote her lines for her?

8/30/2007 8:08:25 PM

this thread needs more of her ^^

8/30/2007 8:14:48 PM

I don't care WHO wrote her lines.. She's HOT and she at least sounded like she new what she was talking about. Gotta love the spirit!

8/30/2007 8:21:54 PM

Dropped snap on 4th down

WTG!

8/30/2007 8:37:21 PM

that chick has a nice rack

8/30/2007 8:38:37 PM

3-0 after 1st quarter .. if LSU doesn't cover the 17.5 I'm blaming the rain

that 4th down play to go for it w/ 3 yards to go was a coaching travesty

8/30/2007 8:43:43 PM

hah. 4th and 2 quarterback draw up the middle by murray state stuffed. wtf is with this dumbass play calling.

8/30/2007 8:48:34 PM

as much as I need more cowbell, thats getting on my god damn nerves.

Final Score Prediction: LSU 13-0

^^ I remember those fucking things from the SEC Champ. Game in 98, annoying as hell

8/30/2007 8:53:33 PM

LSU doesn't look good at all... at least not what I was expecting..

8/30/2007 8:58:03 PM

Offense isnt... or more so Miss. State's D has looked good

8/30/2007 8:59:32 PM

their defense is pretty good but their offense can't even get off the ground. On a side note, Louisville is kicking ass. Our secondary could be in for a long day.

[Edited on August 30, 2007 at 9:00 PM. Reason : ]

8/30/2007 8:59:48 PM

Louisville is going to embarrass us (which is a refreshing change from embarrassing ourselves!)

8/30/2007 9:00:57 PM

Murray St. 10, Louisville 42

8/30/2007 9:01:19 PM

damn, great INT... wasnt even looking back


thats fucking retarded, thats 30 feet per second
