The betting lines showcase a significant spread, reflecting LSU’s home advantage and historical performance. The Tigers are heavily favored, and the game total is pegged at 61.5, indicating expectations of a high-scoring affair. This spread is one of the largest in recent NCAAF matchups, hinting at the perceived disparity between the two teams.

Pat McQuaide QB vs. Garrett Nussmeier QB

Pat McQuaide, the starting player under center at Nicholls, could not find his head at this season’s beginning as he registered only 38.5% of completed passes against strong teams. His ability to recover especially with regards to deeply entrenched teams like LSU, who have kept their scoring matrix intact in their last outings, will be paramount. In particular, Mcquade will have to rally against LSU’s defensive framework patterns and establish GRS early.

Garrett Nussmeier, however looks completely different in that, having begun the season with a high rate of 76.9% completion, his passer rating soared to 155.1. His confidence inside the pocket and hitting targets at the deep end, will pose potential problems for the Colonel’s defense, which has been porous against offensive juggernauts.

It will be a test of McQuaide’s doggedness against Nussmeier’s reputation when the two young guns come face to face. The outcome of such games will probably center on how well each player responded, with Nussmeier doing most of the leading and McQuaide looking for revenge.

Ground and Air Attack: Nicholls Colonels

A big part of Nicholls’ offense is the slashing ability of Collin Guggenheim, who manages 4.4 yards per carry out on the run. It will be necessary to assess the effectiveness of their ground attacks, with Quincy Brown also doing his part on the receiving end. With Brown’s 17.5 yards per reception average, there is potential for further big plays to help spread the LSU defense and open up opportunities to score.

Ground and Air Attack: LSU Tigers

For the Tigers, John Emery Jr.’s electrifying running could truly be the turning point. With a rushing average of over 6 yards, Emery’s propensity for making big plays adds to the threats that are at the disposal of Nussmeier’s offensive prospects. Among them is Kyren Lacy, who had 94 yards in the first game. If used effectively, such an approach can provide the Colonels with more than one headache and help them get on the front foot toward the opposition’s defense.

Nicholls Colonels vs. LSU Tigers Betting Prediction

When it comes to NCAA football free picks, the obvious choice for the bettors is LSU in this particular pool. Usually, a widespread like this would dissuade punters, but considering how well LSU can attack the opponents’ offense and defense, they should manage to cover it.

In terms of prop bets, a milestone-based player performance, firing Garrett Nussmeier for certain passing yards or Jean Emery Jr. for certain rushing yards, would not be a bad idea considering each player’s track record. The over might also be worth considering with the total set at 61.5. In the last games, LSU has been a participant in many-over disputes and even though Nicholls has nothing to boast in terms of performance, they should be able to score just enough to make the total more than 61.5.

Score Prediction: LSU Tigers 58, Nicholls 6.
