Auburn vs LSU College Football Picks, College Football Odds & College Football Predictions: Auburn and LSU will battle it out for second place in the SEC West tomorrow as the two teams square off at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Gene Chizek's squad, currently sitting in third place, is 2-2 in conference play while Les Miles' Tigers are 3-1 and a game back of Alabama. The game is set to get underway at 7:30pm ET on ESPN2. College Football Picks at Bodog.com have LSU listed as a -7.5 against the spread favorite.  

Auburn fell to 5-2 overall and 2-2 in league play last Saturday after dropping its second consecutive conference game. The Auburn vs LSU College Football Picks, Odds & PredictionsTigers lost 14-21 at home to the Kentucky Wildcats a week after getting blasted by the Razorbacks 23-44 in Fayetteville. Auburn's offense, which is averaging 34.9 points and 464.9 yards per game this season, ground to a halt against the Wildcats, racking up just 16 first downs and 315 yards. Quarterback Chris Todd completed just 10-of-24 passes for 80 yards and one interception. The rushing attack kept the Tigers in the game, though, amassing 220 yards at 4.5 yards per carry.

Auburn's defense, which has been suspect most of the season, yielded 21 first downs and 357 yards to Kentucky. The Wildcats were particularly effective on the ground, amassing 282 rush yards (5.8 yards per carry).

LSU lost for the first time back on October 10th as the Florida Gators came into Baton Rouge and left with a 13-3 victory. The Tigers offense had no answer whatsoever for Urban Meyer's defense, posting a meager 12 first downs and 162 total yards. LSU converted just one third down in nine attempts and held the ball 23:30 compared to the Gators possession time of 36:30. Quarterback Jordan Jefferson was ineffective both passing and rushing as he accounted for a total of 95 yards.

The Tigers defense played well, but still gave up 22 first downs and 327 yards to Tim Tebow and company. The Gators did most of their damage on the ground, gashing LSU for 193 rush yards (4.0 ypc).

LSU should be well rested heading into tomorrow's game with Auburn, and it is highly unlikely that Les Miles' squad would drop back-to-back games at home. However, stranger things have happened.

College Football Picks Betting Trend: LSU is 0-8-2 (1-9 ATS as home fav versus SEC in October) against the spread but 8-2 straight up in their last 10 games as a home favorite versus a conference foe.
