LSU enters Saturday’s contest against UAB as a heavy favorite as it has already clinched the SEC West. The Tigers will look to continue winning down the stretch and remain in the College Football Playoff conversation.
However, they aren’t quite as big a favorite as you might think against a Conference USA foe in the Blazers. LSU opened as just a 14.5-point favorite in this game, and since Monday, that line has not shifted at all.
As of 10 a.m. CT on Friday, that remains the spread on this one, though the over/under decreased by two points to 50.5. Here’s how the odds stack up as of Friday morning, per BetMGM.
| Team | Spread | Total – O/U | Money Line |
| UAB | +14.5 -105 |
O 50.5 -110 |
+450 |
| LSU | -14.5 -115 |
U 50.5 -110 |
-650 |
This has been a bit of a rough year for the Blazers and interim head coach Bryant Vincent. This team is 5-5, a down year by its standards, and it snapped a three-game losing streak last week with a win over North Texas.
LSU will hope to avoid a massive upset in Death Valley on Saturday night in the game, which kicks off at 8 p.m. CT.
