Like National Football League teams have done so often against teams quarterbacked by Tom Brady, LSU left Arkansas too much time Saturday night in Baton Rouge.
Certainly not for the Razorbacks to win — nothing that would shake the earth, mind you — but to mess with the minds and wallets of anyone playing the favored Tigers for betting purposes.
LSU won the game handily, which should surprise you not at all, but not in the biggest blowout in Southeastern Conference history.
Depending on which betting service one used, the line ranged from 39 1/2 to 41 1/2 points when the 10-0 Tigers and 2-8 Razorbacks clashed at LSU’s Tiger Stadium, better known as Death Valley.
