    Boise State -6.5 to LSU??

    So is the starting point guard for LSU suspended or not? That seems to be the question.

    He is traveling with the team but no decision has been made if he will play.

    I just don't see how this line is -6.5?
    My numbers say LSU should be -2 with everybody playing.

    This freshman for LSU Shavon Coleman looks like a beast strictly based on the numbers. LSU has a size advantage, they beat this team by 19 points last year even though they did lose their two best players.

    These teams have a common opponent so far this season Cal-Santa Barbara.
    UCSB shot 44% had one offensive rebound and 16 turnovers vs Boise.
    UCSB shot 37% had 13 offensive rebounds and 23 turnovers vs LSU.

    Boise State does not hit the offensive board which is a weakness of LSU.

    This dude Johnny Jones was also a hell of a coach at North Texas going 87-59-6 ats since 2006.

    as far as the coaching battle goes both coaches are equal IMO... so im already crossing the coaching factor out of this equation has no value to me, but thats just me

    I can defo see UCF winning by like 7 or 8.
    I think Boise is higher because they played the better comp (Mich St. and Creighton)

    Yeah, weird numbers.

    I have Central Florida -20
    and Charlotte -3

    although I would never bet Charlotte in that game tomorrow

    LSU and/or Central Florida look interesting

    123-100-8 against Pinnacle's closing line so far this season. Not amazing, but it is what it is.

    Edit: by efficient I mean that my numbers do not average closer to the actual final game score than Vegas' numbers.

    You gotta like Miami with the 4 Seniors who play practically the whole game. Short bench but they look impressive based on the past few games.

    If Brawswell and company get in foul trouble early it could get ugly for Charlotte. Miami beat Mich St by 8 and Umass by 13. Meanwhile Charlotte only true road win was against Davidson by 4. I have a lot of thinking to do. Hopefully, I can figure something out before this line moves any higher for Mia.

    he's suspended. this is LSUs first true road game. plus they have played absolutely NOBODY. look at their schedule.

    Chattanooga
    Seton Hall
    Mississippi Valley St
    Northwestern St
    McNeese St
    UCSB

    all at home. WTF is in charge of that scheduling. that is fkn terrible.

    Boise state has played and beat Creighton. played a very good Utah team, lost to Michigan State by 4. just way more battle tested. should win by DD. LSU should be shell shocked. maybe, first half Boise may be best play as LSU will take time to get adjust first true road game and playing first REAL competition to avoid a backdoor cover.

    Boise half does look good. Already have Miami -5.5 (I know I didn't get the best number, but it's OD) for half a bill. Boise 1st does look good.

    I don't see Miami winning by less than 10 here.

    Well was a 2 point game before he got his 2nd and 3rd foul back to back, I bet Boise but mostly because I though Carmouche and Hickey were out. I see Hickey is in now I guess he was suspended 1st half? weird

    Coach can tolerate malcontents, but not losing. typical
