how can anybody pick psu here. im a big psu fan and i dont see how they stay within 10. to me this is an overrated team. everytime they get in a big tough game they fold. their qb isnt very good their rb is average at best. they spent the season getting their wins against poor teams. iowa and osu beat them rather easily at home. this just doesnt seem like a team that can play against a lsu style team. lsu will be alot more physical than what their use to. now take into account for the line movement and can anyone see psu winning?
PSU ?

Of equal concern was the amount of yardage the Tigers allowed in their final four contests. LSU had allowed 293.0 yards per game as it started 7-1, but gave up 393.8 in splitting its last four games.
:scared
That defense squandered a 17-6 halftime lead in LSU's Nov. 28 finale against Arkansas before Josh Jasper kicked a 41-yard field goal at the end of regulation and a 36-yarder in overtime to give the Tigers a 33-30 win.
While Miles has a long way to go to match Paterno's total of bowl victories, no coach has gotten more out of his team in the postseason recently. Since Miles arrived from Oklahoma State before the 2005 season, LSU has won its four bowl games by an average of 28.5 points.
Despite their bowl track record, the Tigers will be hard-pressed to score on Penn State. While quarterback Jordan Jefferson has played better of late -- he threw nine touchdowns and three interceptions in his last five games -- LSU ranks 108th in total offense (309.7 yards per game).:scared
That offense figures to struggle even more if tailback Charles Scott can't go. The Tigers' leading rusher broke his collarbone in early November and missed the last three games, though he returned to practice Dec. 14 and currently is questionable.
:scared :scared
LSU might be desperate to see Scott play considering backups Keiland Williams (broken ankle) and Richard Murphy (knee) are almost certainly out. Speedy senior all-purpose back Trindon Holliday could get more carries as well.
:scared
Regardless of who receives the bulk of the carries, the Tigers will face a stiff challenge up front. Penn State's defense is 10th nationally against the run (93.9 ypg), eighth overall (277.1) and allows the fourth-fewest points per game (11.8).
The Nittany Lions, as usual, have a talented trio of linebackers in Sean Lee, Navorro Bowman and leading tackler Josh Hull, but it's tackle Jared Odrick -- the Big Ten's defensive player of the year -- who gets them started up front.

I dont like LSU in this game because of Scotts collarbone injury. I doubt he can play and he is LSU top runner. So that leaves us to rely on Jefferson and his passing attack .
oh shit.
Only trouble is there is no way I am trusting Penn St with my money as they fell completely on their face against Ohio St at home. They really pissed me off. I dont trust them

As Roger says above , have u seen Lsu offense . I think Penn st. can score 24 and that will be plenty for the win Imo. As Always Good Luck!!
lsu reminds me of OSU. pryor isnt a very good qb and he had a good game aginst penn state. i cant see penn state scoring 17 points. there not real good at passing the ball and lsu should be able to slow down the run. i dont see where the points will come from. then latter in the game lsu will wear down that psu defense. i look for a good day running for whoever carries the ball for lsu
another thing to consider is how aggresive les miles is. i think the coaching edge goes to him.

les milles over joe pa? give me whatever you are smoking.....my local just gave me penn st +1.5. better team. better coach. imo. :shrug: good luck
joe pa is much more of a figure head than he is a coach. his assistance do all the work.
look at the last ten years who has had more success miles or joe pa?
like i said im a big PSU fan, been up to a couple games this year. there just not as good as some think. they havent beaten anyone any good this year. this is the softest psu team in years. be careful today because clark will break your heart and your bank.
