Best Bet

LSU +2.5 (-110)

7:30PM: Alabama is not the Alabama of old. Yes they are coming off a 34-0 win over Missouri but Missouri is not good. Alabama is 1-2 on the road and the 2 road losses were against SEC opponents. Now they go into LSU and Death Valley at night. Ask Ole Miss how that fared for them a couple of weeks ago. LSU is coming off a bye but before that they lost to Texas A&M. In that game they dominated the first half and struggled in the second half. I think a bye week between these 2 big games is huge for them. They do struggle against mobile quarterbacks (see 2nd half against A&M). This is an elimiation game between these 2 teams for the new 12 team playoff. So I’ll take the points with the home team in this game.
