Who lost by 10 at home to LSU, were out scored 32-14 in the second half and 22-7 in the forth quarter. That's like saying Tennessee is as good as Bama.


I mean there are countless examples of teams playing twice and losing one and winning one. One such example is 2011 LSU and Alabama. Alabama blew you away the second game.

If only football were stagnant. But. It isn't.

LSU is ranked #15 and Missouri is ranked #16. Doesn't seem like much of a difference.

Vegas disagrees.

LSU was favored by 5.5 at Missouri.

Since 3 points is generally given to the home team, LSU would have likely been favored by 8.5 on a neutral field and by 11.5 at home.

The way LSU’s offense is clicking and the team having played somewhat better on defense the last few weeks, there is no reason to believe the point spread would not be the same or higher.
