LSU Football vs USC Trojans final odds and predictions

It's finally game day as the LSU Football team will take on the USC Trojans to kick off the season in Las Vegas. The Tigers haven't won a season opener in five years a trend that will need to be broken today if the Tigers are truly a playoff contender. If LSU wins they'll likely move up from their 13th ranking in the AP Poll with a win over 23rd ranked USC being a great resume builder.

This game is a matchup of two very similar teams as LSU and USC both replace defensive staffs, Heisman Winning Quarterbacks, and draft picks on both sides of the football. This game is very hard to predict given all of the turnover however, the oddsmakers have taken a crack at it.

The oddsmakers are predicting a close game between the two teams which will also be a high-scoring affair.

Our final prediction for LSU vs Southern California

Here we go, our official pick for the season opener is that the Tigers finally get off the Schneid and finally start a season on the right note. We have the Tigers winning this game but, in a close game which means the Tigers can ill afford to make mistakes. The Tigers have the best unit in this game with its offensive line and if they punch the Trojans in the mouth with a high-powered rushing attack then the Trojans will have no answer for what the Tigers will do up front.
