I played LSU +2.5 (-115) on FanDuel alt line. Posting here at +1.5 (-105) as it is the best available on the site. (These prices are dead even in the sim). Texas A&M's pass rush hasn't been elite, and their coverage has been terrible, ranking 91st in CFB. Garrett Nussmeier has been great when he has time to throw. I'll take the short road underdog in a hostile environment.

I mentioned in the write-up on the under that LSU struggles to finish drives, but I still think its offense is superior to what we've seen from A&M this year. Kyle Field isn't an easy place to play, but LSU isn't an easy team to beat, either.

I don't think the version we saw of Conner Weigman is the version we should expect here. That was an avalanche of a game, and LSU's defense has made legitimate improvements over the last month. As for the LSU offense, it's a unit that struggles to finish drives in the red zone because it cannot run the ball, and has to settle for too many field goal attempts.

I'm very torn on this game but I'll side with Texas A&M and its massive homefield advantage. The Aggies have the better running game, better defense, and home crowd on their side. Plus, the trend of home teams winning in this series is at seven games. The game of the week will live up to its billing. Texas A&M 27, LSU 20.
