Georgia Southern at LSU

The LSU Tigers are bringing a lot of talent back this season that includes seven starters on offense. Ed Orgeron has also lured Joe Brady away from the New Orleans Saints to coordinate the passing game. This is going to energize the offense that was built upon a power running game for years. QB Joe Burrow has run the run-pass option attack for a long time, and it should serve him well. Georgia Southern does a better job holding onto the ball than anyone, with just five turnovers all of last season, which will give them a chance to score some points here. Shai Werts will return at QB, and the offense is going to be opened up some for him. LSU is going to score big, and a small contribution from Georgia Southern should push this game OVER the total. Play the OVER.
