Lee Sterling on Bo Bounds this am
ULL is better than last year. The players have talked about this game all off season. Billy Napier's second year so they'll be better. State lost too many players off defense. Joe's offense is still unknown in year two by starting Stevens. MSU is a 21 point favorite but don't surprised in ULL covers. MSU 30 ULL 16
> Wow. We can't more than 30 on ULL we got problems. SEC defenses will eat us alive. We scored 56 last year and KT didn't know the system. As usually Lee Sterling is full of shit.
And then he talked about OM/Memphis:
Matt Corral with his legs, make plays. Matt has good arm too. Rich Rod and McIntyre were super off season hires. That 3-4 defense is a plus. Gonna be hard to stop Phillips. Memphis has no defense. The wrong team is favored OM 38 Memphis 34.
> Everything about OM is this game came out of his mouth as positive. There were no drawbacks, no caveats.
-
That guy was wrong more than he was right last year. Wouldn't worry about his takes.
-
Yeah I don't think much of sterlings predictions.
-
Another point that might actually have merit is if you bet on Boise St/FSU prior to the move to Tallahassee due to the hurricane, the bet is canceled.
-
And he is probably one of those guys who is all about recruiting stars and how that matters when he is talking about some of the other SEC teams. ULL recruiting- 2019 ranked 76, 2018 ranked 105, 2017 ranked 106, 2016 ranked 121.

I agree with him. I don't like betting week 1 b/c there's so many unknowns, but if I was betting those lines, I would definitely take ULL and OM.

Both lines have moved toward om and ULL considerably
-
Nick played against them. Not KT

I'll never understand why people give Vegas credit for where the line moves too. Seems like Vegas should only getting credit when the opening line is close to the final score

Yesterday he said look for us to play both QBs like he thought KT was still on the team.

That's the public money coming in, right? And then the sharks will bet Memphis and MSU tonight?

Exactly. Sterling seems to do these type things a lot. Seems he does very little research.

Maybe. I think our line moved bc of the suspensions news though

He said the same thing this morning. We play both QBs in his scenario but only score 30. Joe's not pulling Tommy only 30 up if ULL is 14 down. That's Mullen pulling Dak the last 8 minutes of LSU game and they almost made a comeback.

I think you're right and the public doesn't know it's only two starters. I will be very surprised if we don't cover 19.5.
-
And FWIW, I don't think Joe pulls Tommy until late, late. Like 3 minutes or less in the game. I think he wants Tommy to get as many live game reps as possible out of the gate.

If the game is in hand going to the 4th I don't expect Tommy to play a snap in the 4th. He's not going to risk an injury late for some meaningless handoffs.

That's true. If Garrett is our guy next year Joe will be throwing him some significant playing time these first two or three games to get his feet wet.

I teased it anyway and got
MSU -13
Bama -26
Georgia -14
Texas -13
Oklahoma St -7
