00:00Sincity on a Sunday, the third and final ranked versus ranked
00:08matchup that we have. It's LSU, a four and a half point
00:12favorite against USC. The over understands it's 64 and a half.
00:16DRS, both of these teams played 13 games a season ago,
00:20including their bowl victories. Both went over a ton. USC over
00:27in 10 of 13. LSU, the highest over percentage in college
00:30football last year, over in 12 of 13. Both have brought in new
00:36defensive coordinators, hoping to shore up that side of the
00:38football. What do we see out in Las Vegas? I'm going to buck
00:42the trends here. I'm going to go against the grain. You see
00:44LSU open up as a six and a half point favorite. That's down to
00:47four and a half. I'm going to take LSU in this game, just
00:49trusting that SEC talent and also trying to remind
00:52ourselves, you're not just moving on from a quarterback
00:55at USC and also LSU by saying like, oh, you know, they were
00:58decent players. No, they were generational talents at their
01:01institutions and both of those guys, high draft picks into the
01:05NFL. So I see that 62 and a half that goes to 64 and a half
01:08and both teams breaking in new quarterbacks. I'm going to go
01:11under the 64 and a half. So I'll go against the grain on the
01:14actual line itself. I'll buy the interest out four and a half
01:17where it was close to a touchdown and I'm going to go
01:19under in this one. I understand what he said last year. A lot
01:21of these games went over, but again, you're talking about
01:23some of the best quarterback play in Jaden Daniels and Caleb
01:26Williams that we've seen in a long time and I think it might
01:28take some time and also a neutral site here to open up
01:31the season. I might lean on the under in this one.
