I’d imagine the spread will close to around a touchdown the week of game. If so I’m putting 5k on Bama. Bama has won me a lot of money when playing lsu. Over 10k



You don’t have that kind of money and you know it.

If you want to cite games from last year

You were -16 at LSU.

So you would’ve been -26 at Alabana.

Compare
that to a projected line of -10 this year. Y’all must be way worse or LSU is way better.

I'll take it!

RTR! In truth I see it as a pick-em
Bama has home field and LSU will have most of their injured Defensive players back.
I don't get the line....I guess the heavy money will be on Bama.

Bad omen! They sure didn't do us Tiders
any favors.

It'll get down there by game time. Especially after LSU dismantles State and Auburn in the next few weeks. Bama as a TD favorite seems about where this thing should be. I don't know how either defense stops the other offense. Like, at all.

I could not care less what that line is now. I will think about that after we play both State and Auburn.

No way it's less than a TD , it will not go below 9.

No smart money would take Ls8u at +6.5. .. it would be extremely skewed on Bama.



We've seen this play before for the past 4 years, this is the year.. etc.

It's not, sorry Ls8u fans.. it will reach double digits unless y'all can pull off an upset next year at home.

Bama, at home, (and away) has dominated Ls8u and this year will be more of the same. Will be a 2 score+ win for Bama. If the final score is closer than 10 it will be due to a garbage time late score to go from down 16 to 9.

Seems to do it quite a bit. But not near the level LSU fans dickride Clemson, so he's got that going for him.

I really am curious to see about if Auburn isn't that good or if the FL game was a freshman doing freshman things and that was his first big challenge.

Bama was -14. Why are you exaggerating?

2018 Alabama @ LSU Betting Line

quote:

So you would’ve been -26 at Alabana.



Are you just making stuff up? Oddsmakers give a standard home field advantage in college of around 2.5 points. That home field advantage may flex up or down around a point (1.5 to 3.5) depending on the teams/matchups. Rarely would you ever see a 4 point home field advantage given by odds makers, much less 5 each way.

So based on the actual line of -14, Alabama may have been around -20 at Alabama last year, not -26. In fact even -20 may be giving too much credit to the respective home field advantages when talking about the Alabama/LSU game and odd makes do often get that granular so, if anything, the hypothetical @Alabama spread could have been even less than -20.

Some research for you if you are interested:

Alabama and LSU homefield advantages actually below average based on historical records

Standard college homefield is 2.5 points, data shows LSU and Bama a little lower

quote:

Compare that to a projected line of -10 this year. Y’all must be way worse or LSU is way better.



-10.5 is the projected line in the OP. And the fact is odds makers knew (and were proven right and then some) that LSU's offense last year was a horrible match up against Alabama's defense. This year LSU's offense is in fact way better and Alabama's defense is a little worse so the odds makers expect LSU to be able score this time.

Personally I think this looks like a one possession game right now and I'm glad it is in Tuscaloosa for whatever that means.

That’s going to be a volatile line the week before the game as the LSU money rushes in ( LSU has covered every week ).
