ALABAMA -13.5 AT LSU

Hummer: That’s really appetizing line when you consider Alabama’s history in Baton Rouge. You’d have to go back to 2002 – when Nick Saban coached the Tigers – to find more than a 10-point win for the Tide on the road in this series. Death Valley is a difficult place to play, and it makes a difference on the scoreboard – the noise is impossible to simulate. Alabama is better team, and I don’t think the Tigers’ offense can keep up here. But I do like the Tigers to cover … Alabama 31, LSU 20.

Crawford: LSU hasn't given up 30 points in 18 games, the longest streak in college football, but that changes on Saturday night in a game that stays relatively close for 2.5 quarters. Tua Tagovailoa will toss his first interception, but the LSU offense isn't going to be able to sustain enough drives to keep the nation's top offense at bay. The Crimson Tide covers in a physical affair ... Alabama 34, LSU 17.

Sporting News (Against the Spread)

quote:

No. 1 Alabama (-14) at No. 4 LSU

What are we supposed to do here? We know Alabama has won the last three meetings in Baton Rouge by an average of seven points per game, but we also know the Crimson Tide hasn't had an offense quite like this. This is the biggest game between the two since 2012, and the Tigers will empty out all their tricks. If they can survive the first half without star linebacker Devin White, then the second half could get interesting. We can't bet against the Tide right now. Alabama wins 34-17 and COVERS the spread.

They're headed straight for the Baton Rouge Buzzsaw. Full steam ahead.

Is any media outlet outside of Louisiana saying LSU wins?

I gave you a thumbs up. No doubt I hope all these guys are wrong, but honestly, hard not to agree with the predictions

So, what I read in to all of your posts is that you are apprehensive about the game. You are insecure and feel the need to try to convince LSU fans there is no way LSU can win.

Excellent.

If only someone would invent something that could simulate noise. People could speak, and it would make their voice louder. Too bad that technology doesn't exist. Audio amplification is just too advanced.

Post about 10 more if it makes you feel better about yourself. "Experts" have been predicting against us all year.

LSU is not beating Bama. We don’t need any “expert” predictions to prove anything. Bama covers +14.5, the end
