LSU vs Auburn College Football Predictions. The No. 6 LSU Tigers head over to the Auburn plaines to battle the No. 4 Auburn Tigers in a clash of SEC West division rivals Saturday at Jordan-Hare Stadium (3:30 pm ET, CBS). These conference rivals last squared off on Oct. 24 last season, when LSU won by a 31-10 count. LSU covered the spread as a 7.5-point home favorite and the score went under the total.
Sportsbook.com lists Auburn on its Week-8 college football betting board as a 5 1/2-chalk favorite versus LSU with a 52 total. LSU backers are getting +175 odds on the Sportsbook.com moneyline while Auburn is giving -210.
LSU has gotten the best of Auburn over the last 10 meetings by going 6-4 SU, while each team is 5-5 ATS over the past 10 games. Auburn is 4-1 SU in the past five meetings at Jordan-Hare Stadium.
In this game we have LSU, the top SEC defensive leader, versus Auburn, the leagues offensive leader, going head to head.Through seven games LSU's defense has only given up 1695 yards, that's third best nationally and best in the SEC, for an average of 242 yards per game.
Countering LSU's potent defense, is Auburn's offense, led by junior quarterback Cam Newton who has become the No. 1 candidate to win the 2010 Heisman Trophy. Newton leads a prolific offense that's built around his capabilities. The Tigers average over 481 yards per game. Newton ranks 11th nationally and first in the SEC in individual total offense responsible for 305 yards per game.
Reno Gold's pick: LSU will have a hard time containing Cam Newton and the balanced Auburn offense. On the other hand, Auburn's defense has struggled giving up yardage in chunks. Fortunately, the LSU offense is unpredictable at best. Overall, I like Auburn to win the game by a touchdown. Take the Auburn Tigers and give the -5 1/2 line.
