First look: Auburn at LSU odds and lines

Previewing the Auburn Tigers at LSU Tigers Week 5 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The No. 22 Auburn Tigers (3-1, 0-0 SEC) and LSU Tigers (3-1, 1-0) square off at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, La. this Saturday. Kickoff is set for 9:00 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Auburn at LSU odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Auburn won its first two games by a combined score of 122-10, but has since failed to cover in its road loss to Penn State (20-28) and too-close-for-comfort win over Georgia State (34-24) last week. Auburn has a top-20 offense and defense if you go strictly by yards per game. However, the numbers are skewed by those first two contests against inferior competition (Akron and Alabama State).

LSU has reeled off three straight wins after its opening-week loss at UCLA. Sophomore QB Max Johnson has 1,143 passing yards with a sterling 15/2 TD/INT ratio, but the running game and defense have been problems for the Tigers. LSU gave up 371 yards passing last week to Mississippi State, a sign that it misses star CB Derek Stingley Jr., who is unlikely to play this week as well.
