Alabama Crimson Tide @ LSU Tigers Monday January 9, 2012 8:30 pm
As stated in the supporting WU for our full game Under pick, we don’t believe that even an improved offensive showing by both teams compared to that first game (it couldn’t be much worse) will be enough to push the total scoring past 41 points, unless, of course, the ... read more

With this BCS Title game a re-match of that painful (to watch) 9-6 OT Alabama loss to Tigers in Tuscaloosa Nov. 5, a snore fest (except for defensive “purists”) in which 15 total points were scored, just 12 in regulation 4Qs, the natural “knee jerk” reaction ... read more

Play under the total in the LSU versus Alabama game. The top two teams played to 9 – 6 finish earlier in the year and I see no way they get to 40 points tonight. I don’t think we will see another 9 to 6 game but these two defenses have given up a combined ... read more
