Ed Orgeron is an alcoholic.  His problems are very well known.  He is very open about it and is proud that he has been dry for many years now.

I often visit opposing teams' boards.  A few on this board are reasonable; others, present company included, are pretty low.

LSU junior safety JaCoby Stevens said the Tigers have learned a lesson after giving up the most passing yards in nearly a decade. At first it will sound cliché. Glib, even. "I feel like we need to respect our opponents," Stevens said Monday. Told you. Hold on — don't close the web...

Two former LSU players, one a talk show host the other on LSU staff, who were in the locker room after the game just confirmed the report that the a/c wasn't cooling. Too many saying this for it to be a conspiracy, a lie would be exposed by someone. Would be easy for someone to slip in the...

A few schools have what is needed to compete at the highest level: money, commitment, coaching, facilities, recruiting base/ability, etc. In the near future I see the following as powers: Clem, UGA, bama, UF, LSU, UTx, Tamu, OU, tOSU, ND, UMich. USC is now a dumpster fire but they will return...

NOTES FROM LSU: Coach Ed Orgeron earned the Dodd Trophy as coach of the week. Orgeron now has a 27-9 record at LSU, which includes a dozen wins over teams ranked in the top 25. Orgeron said we’re not going to see DEs Glen Logan or Rashard Lawrence this week, and that outside...

Guido said LSU -6.5 and LSU had 70% chance of win. Dead on on both, points as close as possible and IMO if they played 10 times LSU would win 7 times. ********************************* LSU rushed slow to prevent Sam from running and because they didn't fear his throwing nearly as much as his...

Hope Horns come out of the game OK and kik azz the rest of the season. Hope my TIGERS do a little better. Expect a serious battle, hopefully no one gets hurt. See you in BR next year.

The 30% chance is based on the money line.  To bet on LSU one must lay 260 to win 100.  Bet on UTx and lay 100 to win 210.  That projects to ~ 70-30% chances to win. If somebody put up a line today at LSU -3 or UTx +10, Guido would bet.

The line is established by the bookies, then a few top pro bettors are allowed to bet at it.  It is then moved before being put up for the general public. If Joe know-nothing makes a big bet, the line probably don't change.  If a known guy makes a smaller bet, the line might change. Sometimes...

Actually the house advantage at 11/10 is 4.76%. And there are some very smart people who try to beat sports betting.  Many use computers and crunch numbers.  Not many are successful. As for the limit on bets, some years ago the LVHilton took "$30k to the number"  After a $30k bet they had the...

Sorry but I know that those guys make lines that I cannot beat.

LV lines are set by very smart folks.  They are then bet by very smart folks. If you believe the SEC teams get special preference and are overrated by the bookies you should be able to make a fortune betting against their bias.  But you can't, very smart people devote their lives to beating the...

NOT trying to convince anyone of anything.  Just stating the best opinion available, more than once because it is changing.  Would post it the other way too. Don't expect reassurance, hoped for intelligent conversation which is often available on other teams' boards. Don't know, don't care...
