I understand that homefield advantage affects the spread, usually homefield accounts for 4 or 5 points.
So that would mean, if LSU were playing in Tuscaloosa, they would be about an 11 point dog.. which is still 7 points less than what A&M was. Why?
Actually if homefield accounts for 4 or 5 points then LSU would be about an 11 point dog on a neutral field and about a 15 point dog in Tuscaloosa.

That's not how it works bud... it's +7 at LSU of +11 at Alabama. There is no neutral site factor when doing the +/-4 home field
And even if it did that would still be 3 points less than an undefeated #6 team... sooooooo
