Not sure man...WKU seems to be the trendy dog of the week. It's easy for Brandon Doughty to look like a pro against North Texas, but I don't think they have the depth on defense to hang with LSU and Fournette as the game wears on into the second half. Good luck!
Why Not:
1) Almost everyone (SBR board, media analysts, etc) is on the points.
2) WKU's Def front 7. They gave up 4.8 yds/carry against the mighty Hoosiers (only winning team Hilltoppers have played).
3) LSU Lewis Neal. Dude already has 10 sacks.
4) WKU TE Tyler Higbee. Doubtful with a sprained knee.
5) Did I even mention a kid (beast) named Fournette yet?
6) WKU is 2-4-1 ATS last 7 road games.
7) WKU wins have been against teams with a combined record: 9-23.
Why:
1) The Madhatter is still coaching... questionable clock/play management.
2) The Hilltoppers unis. Hey, if they look sharp, they feel sharp.
3) LSU tends to play down to their opponents. i.e. Syracuse and EMU
4) "If" Doughty has time to pass, he can spin it with the best of them.
5) WKU has been within 1 score in the last 3 games vs power-5 conference teams.
6) Tigers, can they cover a kickoff/punt?...
7) Cats caught day dreaming of Crimson Red

Reason: edit stat
I like the pick, but look at as a good play. Not a high play as i like playing dogs that I feel have a chance of winning out right. ie Kansas St.
Here is Why though I will also be playing WKU..... good luck if you do!
LSU’s putrid 3-38 ATS mark as a favorite of more than 7 pointsin games where they allow 24 or more points. Toss in Les Miles’ disturbing3-14-1 ATS mark as home chalk of less than 20 points off consecutive wins,including 0-7-1 ATS versus a greater-than .800 foe.
And yes the look ahead is bad and so is the beating of FL either a good reason to fade LSU.
