I think maybe UTk due to their QB situation, however this place will be "must watch comedy" if LSU drops another opener.

LSU is a 4 point underdog and the #9 team playing the #4 team on the road. I don't think that would be an upset by the definition of the word. Shiny hook though.

I agree it would be more of an upset if UT lost but I dont see how its more likely that they lose. Noone had a clue what our qb situation looks like. Nico didn't exactly set the world on fire last year so it doesn't take a heisman performance to match his production. I think Syracuse won 9-10 games last year. I'm surprised we're favored as much as we are.

You are technically correct, but I would argue most here fully expect LSU to win. I do.

Can’t believe Tenner fans let you steal that name

The best parts are

1. LSU is a dog in their game and nobody expects them to win

2. UT’s QB situation is better than UGAs.

Define "most". Because everyone I've seen or heard on TV/Youtube/Podcasts outside of JD on On3 has picked Clemson to win the game. I expect when we do the pick em on here you will see similar results from this board.

We are the underdog in every aspect of the word hate to break it to you.

The last time Tennessee faced a OOC opponent on the level of Syracuse was in 1998.

Are you asking which fanbase is more likely to be upset Saturday night or which team is more likely to be upset?

Beause, by definition, the LSU football team cannot be upset because they are both the lower ranked team and the betting underdog.

Let’s see…. Vegas has LSU as a Dog, 90%+ of the national sports media is picking Clemson, most everyone on here expects LSU to lose, but just because YOU think LSU should be favored, Clemson winning is an Upset.

Just lol!

I don't really like opener games. Nearly all teams are still in a huge state of flux until week 2 or 3.

What you see in week 1 might not really mean squat.
