Lemme know what ya'll think and BOL!
Louisianna Tech @ Auburn -13 (3 Units)
Auburn returns 15 starters and sports a 10-0-1 record against Tech, so the question isn't how much will they win by, but by how much will they win.
Auburn can only go up regarding their QB play, which was dreadful last year. However, new Offensive Coordinator Gus Malzahn has a reputation of directing high powered offenses and I expect no different at Auburn. The reports from Spring and Fall practice have been good, and QB Todd has shown improvement. Auburn always seems to run the ball effectively and I expect them to do the same this year with RB Tate and a good O-Line. Auburn is generally good on the Defensive side of the ball and have talent and experience at Linebacker and Secondary. However, they only have 1 starter returning on the D-Line and that is a concern. I do expect Auburn to re-load along the D-Line and play well this year.
Couple all of this with the fact that Tech is not overwhelming in any particular aspect of their game and is 5-22 ATS as a Road Dog over the last 5 years! It all points to a big Auburn win. I also am disturbed by weak play by Tech QB's last year and do not expect a big jump this year. Look for Auburn to began their rebound from a dissapointing 2008 season in a big way against Tech!
