00:00at one of the great venues in

00:08the sport, especially after the

00:10sun sets. It's a night game in

00:13Bajan Rouge inside Tiger

00:15Stadium in Death Valley. It's

00:17thirteenth ranked LSU catching

00:20points at home against number

00:22nine Ole Miss in a night game.

00:25This is a game crafted in the

00:28So we start with you mastermind.

00:30What comes to mind when you see

00:32the Bayou Bengals a three and a

00:34half point home underdog at

00:36night? A little shocking. They

00:37do have some wide receiver

00:39issues. CJ Daniels and Hilton

00:41Chris Hilton might not play in

00:43regards to this matchup. Could

00:44be a heavy dose of Kyron Lacey

00:46and Mason Taylor the tight end

00:48in regards to this matchup. We

00:49have two prolific offenses. You

00:51have Ole Miss averaging well

00:52over five hundred total yards

00:54per game and we know LSU with

00:55Garrett Nussmeyer averaging

00:57thirty-seven through the air.

00:58They're coming out of a bye

00:59week and we know if you're an

01:01LSU backer that Ole Miss has not

01:03won in Baton Rouge since 2008.

01:06Last time they played there a

01:07couple of years ago, Jackson

01:08Dart lost forty-five to twenty

01:11but now they're favorite which

01:12is a little shocking in regards

01:14to that but I'll say this. I

01:15still like LSU in regards to

01:17this matchup. I think the

01:18defense has been more

01:20opportunistic over the last

01:21three weeks. Thirteen total

01:23sacks. They've been forcing

01:25turnovers and here's the other

01:26factor as well. I did a deep

01:28dive in regards to Ole Miss.

01:29Since that game against Middle

01:31Tennessee State, as a team they

01:33completed eighty-seven percent

01:34of their passes. Jackson Dart

01:36ninety-one percent. Since that

01:38game, he's gone consistently

01:40down with the completion

01:41percentage. Seventy-nine,

01:42seventy-six, sixty-one, fifty-

01:45five. Last two games two sixty-

01:47one and two fifty-five through

01:49the air and they lost the game

01:50to Kentucky. Something's off in

01:52regards to the consistency of

01:54the passing attack. I'll take

01:55the home team. Give me LSU. I

01:57think they strike the upset.

01:58So, I'm on LSU as well

02:00preseason. I looked at this as

02:01one of the best spots of big

02:03games that we would see all

02:04year. Ole Miss is playing their

02:06seventh straight game, their

02:08third straight SEC game, Tigers

02:10at home off a bye. The number

02:13is legitimately stunning to me

02:14that Ole Miss is laying three

02:16and a half points. I think it

02:17shows that the books don't buy

02:19LSU at all. Yeah. They they

02:22look back to the loss against

02:23USC. They, you know, huge

02:26comeback. They needed to beat

02:27South Carolina. Let UCLA in

02:30through the back door. Losing

02:31Harold Perkins. The books are

02:33non-believers in the Tigers

02:35which is fine. To be honest with

02:37you, if this game was pick

02:38preseason, I would have said

02:39LSU. Yeah. I probably leave

02:41this alone. I think a field goal

02:43and a half though is just too

02:45strong when the spot is factored

02:48in and I don't care. Do not tell

02:51me Lane Kiffin is better than

02:52Brian Kelly because that

02:53evidence doesn't exist

02:54anywhere you look. I just want

02:56to add one more thing. If

02:57you're looking at this big

02:58picture and Kev talked about,

03:00you know, college football

03:01playoff odds, you're getting

03:02double the price of LSU where

03:04they were at the start of the

03:05year to make the playoff. Plus

03:06125 before pre-kick August. Now

03:10it's plus 250. So, feel like

03:12nobody's talking about LSU.

03:14They strike this upset. All of

03:15a sudden, they're playing with

03:16house money. I just want to.

03:18So, no one is talking about

03:20them. Rightfully so but I'm

03:21just saying. Yes. They truly

03:24have not earned anything. Like

03:26the thirteen, again, and I'm on

03:28LSU preseason. They've done

03:30nothing so far this season.
