The Arkansas Razorbacks (2-1, 0-0 SEC) travel to face the No. 13 LSU Tigers (2-1, 1-0 SEC) on Saturday at Tiger Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Arkansas vs. LSU odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
The Razorbacks are coming off a disappointing 38-31 loss as 9-point home favorites against BYU in Week 3. The Over (48) hit as QB KJ Jefferson completed 24 of his 35 attempts for 247 yards, 1 TD and 1 interception.

Arkansas at LSU picks and predictions
Prediction
LSU 35, Arkansas 24
Moneyline
Just go ahead and AVOID the moneyline in this game unless you’re confident that Arkansas can pull off the upset on the road. LSU should secure the win, but taking the Tigers at nearly -900 odds isn’t worth the risk.
Against the spread
ARKANSAS +17.5 (-110) is how I’d wager on the spread in this SEC matchup. The Razorbacks will be motivated following their loss to BYU, while the Tigers could be looking ahead to their meeting with No. 16 Ole Miss next week.
While LSU could still win by double digits at home, Arkansas is 6-3-1 ATS in the last 10 meetings.
Over/Under
Both of these teams have experienced QBs and are coming off high-scoring outputs in Week 3, making OVER 55.5 (-105) an intriguing bet. Through 3 weeks, LSU is averaging 32.5 points per game and Arkansas is posting 29.5.
Also, the Razorbacks just allowed BYU to record 38 points, and the Tigers have recorded 113 total points in the last 2 weeks.
