What kind of odds can you get for taking the field vs. Texas or PSU for the natty? Because I'm hammering that bet.

LSU is +1400. Nobody else has a chance

 

[Seaofred92]

To me - LSU or Miami (FL) will be the one unranked

Started unranked and finished top 10. Not the other way around (though that may also be a thing). Obviously it’s gonna be Nebraska.

I'm referring to the field here as someone besides Texas & PSU, not necessarily someone unranked.

Although obviously Nebraska is likely to be that someone.

OU at #18 ? Talk about getting the benefit of the doubt. Finished 2-6 in the SEC last year, 6-7 overall losing to Navy in their bowl game .. and we're supposed to believe they are a Top 20 team ? LOL

TL;DR Huskers are too low

Adding Mateer and Jadyn Ott is probably the most any backfield in the country has improved on offense since last year

They’re in the SEC though, where it’s super duper hard to win, and it just means more

Clearly a top 20 team compared to the rest of the field

OU at 18 and Florida at 15 are complete bullshit, total SEC bias. What have either of those teams done to earn that high of a ranking? Nothing, not a gawd damn thing.
