It looks like LSU opened -4 and is now down to - 3/12
I don't think there is a play here, but interested to know others' opinion: In 2009, MSU all but beat LSU in Mullen's debut season in Starkville but for a freak punt return and a goalline stand. LY LSU easily outclassed MSU in Baton Rouge.
#2 LSU continues to survive with an extremely athletic defense and almost no offense to speak of. Although running game is improved from 2010 with simplified I attack and better blocking from fullback James Stampley, this is all LSU can do and they're counting on war of attrition for daylight and points. Even in impressive win against Oregon LSU had absolutely no passing attack and 5th year senior Jarret Lee seems to have a glass jaw. You'll hear that Lee is guiding LSU with mistake free football, but risk is really being managed through extremely conservative playcalling inviting competent SEC defenses to stack the box, putting Lee in passing situations. No doubt Mullen has had this game circled as a home game at night that MSU can win to showcase program, and you could see Bulldogs pulling upset.
However, Thursday night game and short week is a big advantage for LSU. MSU comes off of slugfest with Auburn and though their backs are against the wall, LSU coasted to easy 49-3 win and has superior depth at almost every position on the field. Additionally, MSU may be losing two oiffensive linemen for the game. MUllen may be the better playcaller, but LSU has better horses.
Factors above suggest that MSU upset and methodical, second half LSU 7-14 pt win are almost equally likely and therefore cancel each other out. Probably should throw your cards back on this one.
