I think LSU will win
Here's why:
LSU exploded in the first part of this season. Then, some major injuries started holding them back.
With a month to rest and practice, they're going to come back strong.
OSU is no doubt a good team, but I don't think they'll get much done on LSU's defense with everyone playing top notch. Expect Dorsey to his thing, Steltz to pull a few picks, and Beckwith/Highsmith to get some nice tackles.
For the offense, with Doucet and Holliday back up to speed (and I mean speed in every sense of the word when I'm taling about Holliday), the returns and long passes will be nice.
If they get in a jam, I think Hester will work his magic and truck some people over for the necessary gains.
Prediction?
LSU - 28
OSU - 10

Look for all of those who doubt Ohio won't be disappointed. My Parents live in Columbus, Oh. They called me and told me even the sports media up there is predicting a loss. As an avid Tigers fan, I will say OSU will either keep it close or even have a small lead at half time. But like most of LSU's games this year, the boys will get it together and stop playing with those poison nuts and pull ahead in the 2nd half. Final score will be 31 to 17 .

WVU fan who, unfortunately lives in "Big Ten Country" since I live in PA and there are Penn State fans EVERYWHERE. I've watched both teams play this year and I will say this:
OSU - Great defense except when they face a spread offense (and I'm not basing this off of last year's BCS game. I'm basing it off of the Illinois game.). Their offense is okay. They have a good but GREEN QB who is holding his own against the competition he's had so far...but that competition hasn't been that strong this year due to that the Big Ten is still trying to rebuild itself (transfers, Graduations, NFL picks, etc.). Their running back, Mr. Wells, is good, but he's not that fast compared to running backs like McFadden (Arkansas).
LSU - Amazing Defense who I believe have won most of their games for them (holding teams to three and out when they really REALLY needed it). They have had a lot of injuries on that Defense and it looks like they are going to be healthy. Offensively, I'm not that impressed, but Hester is a very good runner and the rest of the offense knows how to get it done right when they need it. Overall their competition has been much superior than OSU's has and the scores have reflected that by being so close all year long. Basically, they have figured out to win no matter how bad they are down...all except two times and they were in OT.
Final word - I think LSU is going to win this one, but I don't see it being a blow out unless the offense really steps up. If I had to guess a score, I think it's going to be low and just like the SEC Championship at 21-14.
Gl to both teams and let there be no injuries to any player.

Ohio State will suprise people and play their best game of the year. I predict 17-17 at the end of regulation. But LSU's luck will change, and for once they'll win in the 3rd overtime.

LSU will have a month to heal up their banged up players something OSU doesnt have to worry about because they played cupcakes all season and havent played a game in almost a month!

did no longer you somewhat advise to ask who'll win the sparkly hood ornament? The Bc$ is a farce, designed to stay away from determining a countrywide champion in any respect fee. wager i will climb down from my soapbox now.

I'm gonna go with the Buckeyes, because LSU will underestimate them like there fans are already doing.
Beanie Wells will run some serious yardage.
no score prediction, just that the Buckeyes win win, but it will be a very close game.
