They've already proven this season that they are very good at picks.

LSU could surprise me/us, but I still think Auburn wins pretty comfortably...10+ points

They have to be right at some point. Even a broken clock is right two times per day.

Even if LSU losses if its crazy close then I think the media will respect them a little more.

While I think Auburn probably wins this one at home... ESPN is just awful.... at everything. They've single handedly ruined several sports, ruined the game day experience, and are just terrible at everything... take a look at those week 1 picks.

Unfortunately I agree. I just don't see how we're gonna score with our OLine being so crappy.

Wow. Those are some awful picks by ESPN's "experts", and they are straight up picks to boot. We could have a panel of SEC Rantards pick games every week, and the results would probably be better and certainly no worse than what ESPN produces.

ETA: I think Auburn wins this one. My guess is they take the an early lead like last year, but keep LSU from scoring more than one touchdown this time. AU 24-7.

I propose we start our own sports broadcast network. Without Mizzou.

Look forward to hearing how Auburn isn't all that good after LSU beats them, as happened after the Miami game

To be fair, it was week one. Nobody expected FSU or Miami to be that bad.

Betting line opened as Auburn at -10 and hasn't moved yet.

Most of them disagree with the spread though, and think it's a closer game than 9.5 pts. I would take LSU with the spread, but I think Auburn Stadium has a few points worth of voodoo and ref cheating in her

Lord that week one chart is a desolate wasteland. It is also exhibit A as to why you are not going to win at sports betting over the long term. Everyone talks big but the number of folks gambling on football who truly consistently win is virtually zero.

That was also week 1, before anyone actually got to see any teams play.

I agree with 17. Easy pick.
