Initially Vegas had us as a 3 pt favorite but now Texas is favored. I guess that means we’ll just have to smack em that much harder

That is just factually inaccurate. It moved to a pick'em, which means no points to either side. But, Texas is at home, which is typically a 3 point advantage. So, Vegas handicapping the game at even means that they think LSU is 3 points better on a neutral field.

That's only to get more people to bet on Texas. The lines will move again before the game.

Vegas doesn't know anything except how to take your money.

This is going to be an interesting game. Based on what Texas has lost and LSU has coming back, I'd go with LSU. However, Herman has been great against big opponents (but if Texas is favored, he can't play up the underdog role). Also, you know Ed O wants this one even a little more than usual considering how much LSU fans either wanted Herman or Jimbo coaching here.

Vegas sets the line based on how they think they can make the most money. Has nothing to do with who they actually think will win or lose.
