T.M. Selection: LSU Tigers - Moneyline

1) I like the LSU Tigers to win this game against the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday, October 19th. The line is in the -2.5 range and for my money the better value is therefore with the money line in the -135 range.

2) The line is begging you to take home dog Arkansas off a bye week but I am not falling for it. The Tigers are building up momentum off an OT win last week and they also went on the road earlier this season and won at South Carolina after trailing by 17 in that game. LSU has already shown they can battle through adversity to win tight games late and that makes them a solid choice again on the SEC road in this one.

3) Big match-up edge when you compare the passing attacks of these two teams! Razorbacks Green has 5 TD and 5 INT while Tigers Nussmeier has 18 TD against 6 INT. Road team pulls away in the 2nd half of this game as that passing attack proves to be too much.

T.M. Prediction: 34-23 LSU Tigers.

Line: -135
