Spurrier has been known for winning a big game and then blowing it the next week. It is one thing to win a big game one weekend but it is something entirely different to win every weekend.
That being said, I think USC has a hell of a football team. Clowney is the best in the country at his position in my opinion. I actually enjoyed watching him play Saturday night.
Vegas also knows that Georgia is always overrated at the beginning of each year and that Richt will always frick it up so they my have just looked at Saturday night as Richt fricking up and not USC winning.

Tough stretch for these guys right now - UGA,LSU,UF,UT. Glad that's not us.

To win by at least 2.5 would mean LSU would have to score at least 2.5. I'm not sure they can.

I'm obviously biased, but I don't see any way LSU scores more than 13 points on us. Our offense isn't great, but it's good enough to score a few times.

I can see LSU winning if they win the turnover battle and just play like they did in the first half against UF on D. I also think we're going to see The Hat return to using some of his patented trick plays, and we all know they tend to work or malfunction to perfection.

Rooting for LSU. They can get it done. It's going to come down to breaking tendencies for LSU's O and being less predictable on early downs. Getting themselves in better 2nd and 3rd down distances.

Hope LSU can muster some offense...

I think our D will hold them down The Hat from 07 will need show up for our offense.

I think my prediction I put down was
South Carolina - 21
LSU - 16
I think we can muster up a touchdown and a few field goals. I just can't see us beating South Carolina after their performance Saturday night. Unfortunately, I think their defensive line will have a field day with our offensive line.

LSU has zero pass protection. I just hope Clowney doesn't eat Mett.

Vegas always factors in teams history, site of the game, and the line always reflects the possibility of an emotional let down after a big win. Guess they factored in the blowout of Georgia on this weeks line.
Besides, Vegas lines are simply used to try and achieve a 50/50 betting split on both sides.
Want the line to be tempting to both fan bases.

This really isnt shocking, especially with it being at LSU.

as an LSU fan, I'm extremely shocked. Our coach has zero confidence in our QB, our WRs can't catch, our OL can't block, and our RBs run with zero vision and fall down at first contact. Plus, while we have an extremely solid D Line, we have been decimated by injuries at the LB and OL positions.
Les Miles has gone into his extreme conservative offensive shell. To see what that results in, watch the first half of the SECCG 2011 vs Georgia, 2011 BCSNCG vs Bama and rewatch the game from Saturday vs your Gators. LSU is not likely to score more than 20 in the next 5 games. We stomp Ole Miss and then have to try to outscore Arkansas, who we've routinely played close with Miles as coach.
This could be a really, really rough stretch for LSU. And, it could get really, really ugly if Miles remains stubborn like he has done in the past.
