LSU Tigers vs. Alabama Crimson Tide Predictions

The Tigers have been on a roll recently, cruising to a 62-0 victory over Army in Week 8 and outscoring their opponents 159-57 in their last three games. Their offense, led by Heisman Trophy candidate Jayden Daniels, is currently the top-scoring offense in the nation, averaging 47.4 points per game. However, their defense has been less than stellar, giving up at least 31 points in 4 of their 8 games this season.

On the other hand, the Crimson Tide have also been performing well, covering as 9-point home favorites in their 34-20 win over No. 16 Tennessee in Week 8. Their offense, while not as explosive as LSU’s, has been consistent, with QB Jalen Milroe combining for 7 passing touchdowns and 2 interceptions in his last 3 starts. Their defense ranks 17th nationally, allowing an average of 16.50 points per game.

This game will likely come down to the performance of the quarterbacks. Daniels will need to continue his stellar play to keep up with Alabama’s defense, while Milroe will need to take advantage of LSU’s shaky secondary. With both teams vying for a spot in the SEC title game, this matchup is set to be a thrilling one.

LSU at Alabama Pick Against The Spread

Despite Alabama’s strong performance this season, the LSU Tigers are a force to be reckoned with. The Tigers have been on a winning streak, outscoring their opponents significantly in their last three games. Their offense, led by Heisman Trophy candidate Jayden Daniels, is currently the top-scoring offense in the nation. This offensive prowess gives the Tigers a strong chance of covering the spread against Alabama.

On the other hand, while Alabama’s defense ranks 17th nationally, the LSU Tigers have proven their ability to score high against strong defenses. Furthermore, Alabama’s offense, while consistent, is not as explosive as LSU’s. Given these factors, and considering the recent trends and odds, the LSU Tigers against the Spread is the right pick for this game.

The Pick: LSU Tigers +3.0 (FanDuel)
