LSU Tigers
LSU Tigers(Note: GT sports editor Mark Mayer will assess the 35 college football teams on the LVH sports book list of OVER / UNDER win totals leading up to the Aug. 30 season openers. Today, the LSU Tigers).
Pleading the case:
• In the Les Miles era at Baton Rouge, 10-victory seasons are commonplace.
• With such “expert” scheduling as North Texas, Idaho and Towson, only Washington poses even a mild threat.
• Zach Mettenberger has Tiger fans excited as a passing QB, something not seen in the bayou since Matt Flynn.
• Tigers return a strong defense and a running game by committee that averaged over 200 yards per game.
• LSU comes off a school record 13-win season and a berth in the national title game.
Prediction: PUSH. LSU has a brutal 4-week stretch of Florida, S.C., A&M and Bama. Then they close at Arkansas. We see 10-2.
