Queue music and Keith Jackson:

Live from JerryWorld

In 3 days, 8 hours and 41 minutes the 2011 season kicks off.

Will LSU match the speed of Oregon?
Can Oregon avenge their season-ending loss to to Auburn?
Can LSU overcome the distractions of the starting QB suspension and NCAA rules violations?

These questions and more, will be answered soon at the..

College Football Kickoff Classic!

LSU match the speed of Oregon? Does any school, from the other conferences, match the speed of the SEC? LSU pulls this out in a squeaker. 14-10.

In all honesty, if Oregon can't win this one with Jefferson and Shepard out for LSU, than that spells certain doom for the PAC-12.

I'm looking for Oregon to win by a slim margin, based on LSU losing guys to general stupidity.

Just remember, nobody circles the wagons like Les Miles.
He seems to thrive on contoversy.

Shepard > Jefferson.

I am not so sure that Jefferson is the savior people are making him out to be. Jefferson is mobile, but he is not the slash and burn Cam Newton-like runner that could make a big difference in the game and he is abysmal as a drop back passer or pocket passer.

Truth.

If it was in death valley, I'd be laying my money on lsu. Neutral site, but closer to lsu may give them some advantage there.

What's the spread?

Oregon's speed is primarily the way they call plays. BangBangBang.

Everybody in the SEC usually huddles.

Miles has had the defense practicing against the 1 and 2 offense simultaneously.
Run a play, leave the field, #2 offense runs a play, leaves the field, etc.

Hell to be on LSU's D this week.
