How is LSU 10-0 on the Over?
Led by the dynamic Daniels, the Tigers are second among FBS schools in scoring offense, averaging 45.9 points per game. Oregon leads the country at 46.3 PPG.
LSU is at the top in yards per game at 560.2.
Having a less-than-stellar defense is the second part of the equation. LSU is tied for 35th in scoring defense at 28.9 PPG.
FOX Sports College Football Analyst RJ Young said Daniels, who transferred to the bayou after a standout freshman season at Arizona State, is the key.
Daniels leads the FBS in total offense, averaging 408.2 yards per game, 57.6 yards ahead of Washington Huskies QB Michael Penix Jr.
"I am a tremendous Jayden Daniels fan," said Young, host of The Number One College Football Show. "Loved him with Arizona State, mostly because he's not just a great passer, [he's] really great at taking care of the football. And with Brian Kelly as head coach and Mike Denbrock calling the plays, they kinda let that dude do what he needs to do, whether it's running or passing."
The Tigers have had two close calls on the O/U.
In their 41-14 win over Mississippi State on Sept. 16, the team total of 55 points eclipsed the O/U of 54.
LSU barely cleared the O/U of 60 in the 62-0 win over Army on Oct. 21.
