We have an unprecedented spread for an SEC matchup, so there is only one way to go. Arkansas dumped its head coach and was afforded a bye week for the turmoil to subside. The Razorbacks have a passable ground attack, with RB Rakeem Boyd enjoying four 100-yard-plus games, and LSU’s rush defense does not measure up to the rest of the squad. The Tigers have covered in just two of the past seven home gigs. It might not be a factor, but the Hogs have covered in nine of the past dozen meetings.

LSU's offense is one of the most explosive in college football, and the Tigers can beat you in a multitude of ways. Where LSU gets into trouble is on defense. Part of the reason is, the unit doesn't get much rest with the offense scoring so quickly. There's an opportunity here for the Tigers to get the blowout AND for the Razorbacks to cover the spread.
