Final odds and predictions for the LSU Football team versus South Alabama

The LSU Tigers will play host to an upstart South Alabama Jaguars in a game where LSU can't take its opponent lightly. The South Alabama Jaguars have quickly become one of the hottest teams in the country scoring 135 points over their last two matchups. In scheduling South Alabama, LSU didn't pick up a free win over a Sun Belt school as this will be an incredibly tough game if the Jags get rolling.

While the Tigers will be expected to win and win big, as the team continues to go through defensive changes and adjusts to injuries, LSU could have some defensive struggles in this game. This Jaguars defense has been vulnerable as North Texas scored 52 points earlier this season.

Here are the official odds for the game as of Saturday Morning:

Line: LSU - 20.5

Total: 65.5 points

The line on this game projects that the LSU Football team will win this game in a three-possession game. The total projects that this game will be played with LSU scoring in the 40's while holding South Alabama in the 20's.

Death Valley Voice's Predictions:

Nick Rome: LSU 51 - South Alabama 17

The LSU Tigers need to show a few things in this game

Just winning this weekend isn't enough for the LSU Football team, they need to start showing a few things. For starters, LSU hasn't started games on the right track defensively as they've trailed or were tied at halftime in two of four games this season. We'd also like to see a complete game from the LSU Football team for the first time this season. It would be beneficial for this team to get up early in the game as injuries have bitten this team and getting the starters out of the game would be nice for a change.
