Alabama vs. LSU Free Pick
The SEC Game of the Week is in Baton Rouge this Saturday as LSU hosts Alabama at 3:30PM ET. Read on to check out our picks for this Week 10 bout.
Oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com have made Alabama a 6.5-point favorite over LSU in Week 10. The over/under total for this game is currently 44 points.
The Crimson Tide are off to a 7-1 start and have covered in five of their first eight games. They’re also 3-1 on the road this year although they’ve only covered in two of those four games away from Tuscaloosa.
The Tigers are also 7-1 but have failed to cover in five of their first eight games. They’re a perfect 4-0 at home this season but have failed to cover in three of those four games at Tiger Stadium.
Our Week 10 Free Pick:
The Tigers are awfully tough to beat at home but the Crimson Tide received new life last week when both Michigan State and Missouri lost, catapulting them up the rankings. With either TCU and Utah falling this week (the two teams play each other today), a win will put ‘Bama back into the top-5. The Tide are 6-1 against the spread in their last seven meetings with the Tigers in Baton Rouge, so obviously they’re not afraid to play LSU on the road. They’re also 3-1-1 ATS in the last five meetings with the Tigers and the road team is 11-2-1 ATS in the last 14 meetings between these two teams. Our pick is Alabama minus the points.
