LSU vs Pitt Prediction

Pittt and LSU are both elite offensive teams and they are both going to have no issue running up the score here. Look for LSU especially to get the offense out to a fast start and that is going to be the difference here. Both teams are going to go over the 80 point mark and it wouldn’t shock me if one of these teams went over the 90 mark. Back the over to cash. This is one of my favorite plays on the day.
