LSU vs Alabama Prediction
Alabama rolls into this matchup looking to stay undefeated in SEC play and they will be at home for this contest. The Crimson Tide have scored at least 27 points in four straight games and will face a LSU defense that has allowed 49 and 31 points in their last two games. LSU has lost three of their last four games and they are a mess right now, as they just fired their coach. The Tigers have plenty of talent and we have seen Alabama play a little inconsistent at times, but I can’t back this LSU defense right now.
