No Witty, Ironic Title; It's LSU Week: Week 4 Picks

First we will get our obligations out of the way, then we'll discuss WVU-LSU...

I desperately need a big week to get myself out of the cellar, but I don't know if I've got the juice to make it happen this week.

TOUCHDOWN JESUS -6 v. The Cathedral of Ignorance
AM I REALLY BETTING ON MIKE SHERMAN? -3 v. "I'm a man, I'm 44!"
HOWARD DEAN'S #1 FAN +3 v. Florida State (let me make it clear that I firmly believe that FSU is the better team here, but football is all about momentum and the Noles are just too banged up)
ALABAMA -12.5 v. Houston Nutt Farewell Tour
CASTRATED TURKEYS -18.5 v. That Team Down South (can someone just nuke Blacksburg and eliminate both these teams for good?)

VANDERBILT... NO, I'M NOT KIDDING +15.5 v. The Fighting Chickens

WEST "BY GOD" VIRGINIA +5 v. Geaux Fist Yourself

Basically, here's my thinking... against Mississippi State, LSU sold out against the run and dared Chris Relf to pass to beat them. Everyone knows the passing is not exactly Relf's strength, thus LSU prevailed.

Dana Holgerson is begging LSU to try and stop our run-game. We can't run it anyways, so it doesn't matter. As long as our O-Line can hold up their D-Line long enough to give Geno Smith a chance to drop back, we will be alright. I don't see this game getting too far away from the Mountaineers, basically because LSU's offense is just that bad.

LSU is a bigger favorite over us than over Mississippi State? The line is 5? Something is fishy. It's almost like Vegas is begging the public for LSU action. With 82% of SportsNation favoring LSU in this contest, we'd like to think that suspicious line isn't a result of the action, so apparently, Vegas knows something.

Expect a close game with the Mountaineers at home under the lights. Special things happen in Morgantown after the sun set. We just could see a little bit of that fabled magic on Saturday.

Go Mountaineers!!!
