Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl
No. 20 LSU (7-4, 5-3 SEC) vs. No. 13 Louisville (9-3, 7-1 ACC)
Dec. 31 – 11 a.m., ABC
Camping World Stadium, Orlando, Fla.

Average Line: LSU, -3.5

Sorry everyone, I am not too confident that Louisville will be able to get the job done in Orlando on December 31st. The Tigers’ front seven on defense is going to be a match-up nightmare for the Cardinals’ offensive line. If Houston’s D-line could shut down Louisville, then we should expect the same from LSU.

There are just so many unfortunate distractions going on right now with the Cards that I don’t know if they can overcome them. This is still a younger football team and James Hearns will probably not be playing either because of getting shot last weekend.

With that being said, we’ve seen many Louisville teams rise to the occasion and pull off the stunning upset before.

Let’s hope that the Cards’ offensive line is ready to go once the ball is kicked off in Camping World Stadium last this month.
