For LSU, this one is sandwiched between an epic upset of Auburn and a clash with arch-rival Ole Miss. For Louisiana Tech, it’s a season-making game. The Bulldogs show no fear against most SEC foes, with one-point setbacks to South Carolina last season and to Arkansas in 2016. They have covered in seven of the past nine games versus the mighty conference. The Tigers tend to often overlook lesser opponents, with a 1-4-1 recent ATS record. A week off assures that the Bulldogs are rested and prepared Saturday.
