> Minnesota vs Ohio State (-14)
> Tulane vs Oklahoma (-22.5)
> Arkansas (-20) vs Rice
> Alabama (-18) vs Miami
> Texas (-10.5) vs Louisiana-Lafayette
> Missouri (-11.5) vs Central Michigan
> UCLA vs LSU (-4.5)
> Florida State vs Notre Dame (-10)
> Ole Miss (-8) vs Louisville
Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma lines are lower than I figured they'd be.

Probably this game since Arkansas sucks balls.

I think Miami surprises a lot of people. I think we win by 10 with a late pick 6 to seal the game.

Napier has Louisiana as a nice G5 team. They've gotten better and more talented under him. They're going up against a new coach breaking in a new QB and completely new systems. It has upset special written all over it.

Would be hilarious

I think UL Laf has a decent chance to win and certainly a good bet to cover. Could see the Horns pulling out a narrow one there.
Rest of those lines look fairly close to what they should be.

Fla St was a train wreck last year. Notre Dumb is always overhyped but if fla st were to win that would be a surprise.

ULL covers.
UCLA wins.

I think the LSU/UCLA is very fascinating.
Home game for the Bruins.
Bruins return 19 starters. 9 on offense. 10 on defense.
Experienced, senior, dual threat QB Dorian Thompson Robinson is back.
Bruins defense led Pac 12 in sacks, rushing yards allowed per carry last season.
Bruins also get Hawaii the prior week so will gain some rhythm there.
21 years ago my team, coming off winning the SEC, opened up in LA, favored, ranked high.
Other than a Milons TD punt return, it was an embarrassment. As was the season, leading to Dubose being fired.
Difference is, after last year shitting the bed opening wk vs State, you gotta think LSU will be better prepared, better experienced as well.
We'll see.

In all seriousness though, it will likely be a game no one is expecting. I'll provide some candidates.
Nebraska at Illinois
Southern Utah at Arizona State (internal turmoil)
Fresno State at Oregon
Texas Tech vs. Houston
BYU vs. Arizona

Re Mizzou: Vegas probably took a wait and see approach and I don't blame them. Remember Wyoming ?
