March Madness: Creighton vs. Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Creighton vs. Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 9 seed Creighton Bluejays (25-10) and No. 1 seed Auburn Tigers (29-5) meet in an NCAA Tournament second-round game in the South Region Saturday. Tip-off from Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, is set for 7:10 p.m. ET (TBS/truTV). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Creighton vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Bluejays got off to a lightning-fast start in their 89-75 first-round win over the No. 8 seed Louisville Cardinals Thursday. Covering as a 3-point underdog, Creighton scored 49 points in the first half, taking a 15-point lead into the break. Before Thursday’s win, Creighton was coming off an 82-66 loss to the No. 5 seed St. John’s Red Storm in the Big East Tournament final last Saturday (March 15). The Bluejays have won 5 of their last 6 games, going 4-2 against the spread (ATS). They are 20-13-2 ATS on the season.

The Tigers entered the tournament as the No. 1 overall seed and defeated the No. 16 seed Alabama State Hornets 83-63 Thursday, ending the first half with just a 10-point lead and failing to cover as a 31.5-point favorite. They were led by G Miles Kelly, who scored a team-high 23 points. Auburn entered the tournament having lost 3 of its previous 4 games. It was eliminated from the SEC Tournament by the No. 6 seed Tennessee Volunteers, 70-65, March 15. The Tigers finished atop a historically strong SEC, which saw 14 teams make the NCAA Tournament.

Auburn is No. 4 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll.

Creighton vs. Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 76, Creighton 71

Moneyline

PASS.

The Bluejays have a chance to pull off the upset, especially considering their size and ability to shoot from deep. However, they are better played on the spread. Avoid a moneyline wager.

Against the spread

BET CREIGHTON +9.5 (-115).

The Tigers can overpower teams with their size, but that was the style Creighton played Thursday, scoring 36 points in the paint. The Bluejays’ leading scorer this season, C Ryan Kalkbrenner, stands 7-foot-1 and should be able to match Auburn’s size.

The Tigers have scored 72 or fewer points in 3 of their last 5 games and have struggled against quality opponents, narrowly defeating Ole Miss (a No. 6 seed) 62-57 in the SEC Tournament quarterfinals March 14 and falling 70-65 to Tennessee (a No. 2 seed) in an SEC semifinal last Saturday. They have failed to cover in 5 straight games.

Take CREIGHTON +9.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 150.5 (-115).

The Tigers have allowed 63 or fewer points and scored 65 or fewer in 2 of their last 3 games, going 0-3 O/U. They shot 42% or worse in both SEC Tournament games and have struggled offensively.

As for Creighton, it finished the regular season just 14-17 O/U.

Bet UNDER 150.5 (-115).

March Madness: Alabama State vs. Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Alabama State vs. Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The 16th-seeded Alabama State Hornets (20-15) meet the top-seeded Auburn Tigers (28-5) in the first round of the NCAA Tournament’s South Region Thursday. Tip from Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky, is set for 2:50 p.m. ET (CBS). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Alabama State vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Hornets created the first “Shining Moment” of the 2025 NCAA Tournament with a dramatic 70-68 victory over the St. Francis (Pa.) Red Flash Tuesday in a First Four contest in Dayton, Ohio. G Amarr Knox’s layup with 1 second to go off of several deflections off a “hail mary” pass from G Micah Simpson was the winning basket. Knox’s 16 points led 3 Hornets in double figures as they advanced to the field of 64 but failed to cover as 3.5-point underdogs with the Over (135.5) hitting.

Alabama State finished fourth in the SWAC regular season before running the table with 3 consecutive wins in the conference tournament to claim the title and the SWAC’s automatic bid to the Big Dance. The Hornets beat the second-seeded Jackson State Tigers 60-56 in the SWAC title game Saturday in College Park, Georgia, covering as 2.5-point underdogs with the Under (141) cashing. Alabama State is 7-0 straight up (SU) and 5-2 against the spread (ATS) in its last 7 games. It is 14-18-2 ATS on the season.

Auburn, which enters the NCAA Tournament as the fourth-ranked team in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll, lost to the No. 6 Tennessee Volunteers in an SEC Tournament semifinal in Nashville Saturday 70-65. The Tigers were upset as 5-point favorites with the Under (141.5) hitting. Auburn still earned the top overall seed in the NCAA Tournament despite having lost 3 of its last 4 games. It is 18-15 ATS on the season.

F Johni Broome was a unanimous first-team selection for the AP All-America team. The senior averaged team-bests in points (18.9 per game), rebounds (10.6) and assists (3.1). He led the SEC in rebounds per game, too. G Chad Baker-Mazara (12.6 PPG), G Miles Kelly (11.5), G Tahaad Pettiford (11.0) and G Denver Jones (10.7) also average double figures in points for the Tigers.

Alabama State vs. Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 92, Alabama State 55

Moneyline

PASS.

It would be stunning if the Tigers (-100000) don’t cruise to a victory, but they simply aren’t worth a play as such massive and expensive favorites.

Against the spread

BET AUBURN -32.5 (-105).

The Hornets faced Cincinnati, SMU and Missouri earlier in the season, their only games as underdogs of 20 points or more. They lost all 3 by at least 17 points but did cover in 2 of them. Having played Tuesday, Alabama State should get overpowered by Auburn.

The Tigers are 4-1 ATS in games in which they were favored by 20 or more points. They went 5-1 ATS in their first 6 neutral-court games before failing to cover in their last 2 at the SEC Tournament in which they went 1-1 SU. Auburn has struggled against top sides as of late, so it might play a little more aggressively.

With size on its side, TAKE AUBURN -32.5 (-105).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 149.5 (-105).

The Tigers should be leading with ease after the first 20 minutes, leading to taking some time off the clock in the second half. Their offense has also struggled in postseason play, scoring 63.5 points per game in their 2 SEC Tourney contests.

The Hornets are 2-2 O/U in the postseason after closing the regular season with 7 consecutive Unders. Alabama State is 13-20-1 O/U on the season. Having allowed 68 or fewer points in 3 straight, it might be able to keep the Tigers at bay for a little bit as well.

Back UNDER 149.5 (-105).

Tennessee vs. Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Tennessee vs. Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 4 seed Tennessee Volunteers (26-6) battle the top-seeded Auburn Tigers (28-4) in an SEC Tournament semifinal Saturday. Tip-off from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Tennessee vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Tennessee — No. 6 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll — claimed its sixth win in the last 7 games as it took down Texas 83-72 in a Friday quarterfinal. G Chaz Lanier’s 23 points led 4 Volunteers in double figures, helping Tennessee cover as a 10.5-point favorite with the Over (137.5) easily hitting. Tennessee is chasing its first SEC Tournament title since 2022, but no matter how things play out, the Vols are locked into their seventh straight NCAA Tourney appearance.

After losing its 2 final regular-season games, third-ranked Auburn bounced back in the SEC quarterfinals with a gritty 62-57 win over Ole Miss Friday. The Rebels made Bruce Pearl’s Tigers work for it, holding them to their lowest point total since Jan. 25 when Auburn squeaked by a visiting Vols squad 53-51. F Johni Broome finished with a double-double (23 points, 15 rebounds) Friday, but the Tigers didn’t cover as 13-point favorites with the Under (156) cashing. The Tigers are looking to defend their SEC Tournament title and lock in a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament for just the second time in school history.

Auburn’s 53-51 win over Tennessee (mentioned above) was the lone regular-season meeting between the SEC rivals. While the Tigers won, the Vols covered as 6.5-point road underdogs and the Under (141.5) cashed. Auburn’s Broome scored a game-high 16 points, while G Zakai Zeigler led Tennessee with 14 points.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Tennessee vs. Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Tennessee 68, Auburn 65

Moneyline

BET TENNESSEE (+155).

Defense will be the key to the Vols heading back to the SEC Championship Game for their first time since 2022. This matchup is all about the Tigers offense vs. the Volunteers defense. Auburn averages 84.4 points per game (PPG), ranking fifth in the country, but Tennessee locks teams down and allows just 62.2 PPG, which is seventh-best in D-I hoops.

As mentioned, the Volunteers held the Tigers to a season-low 53 points earlier this season, nearly winning on the road.

Auburn has also been careless with the ball, averaging 12.3 turnovers in its last 3 games, up from its season average of 9.3 (ranking fifth). That included 15 against Ole Miss Friday. The Tigers can’t afford such mistakes against the Vols, who have shown they know how to capitalize.

If the Volunteers control the tempo and make this a grind-it-out game, they’ll be in great shape. Expect Tennessee to wear Auburn down and advance to Sunday’s SEC title game.

Against the spread

PASS … since we’re on the Tennessee moneyline.

If you prefer to take the 4.5 points, there’s nothing wrong with that, but I’ll take my chances with the plus-odds on the moneyline.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 138.5 (-105).

These teams combine to hold opponents to just 131.8 PPG (Auburn allows 69.6 PPG), making defense the story here. Tennessee’s reputation on that end is well known, but Auburn isn’t far behind.

The Volunteers aren’t looking to get into a shootout, knowing that would favor Auburn. Look for Tennessee to dictate the tempo, slow things down, and turn this into a grind-it-out battle rather than a high-scoring affair.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 3 Auburn Tigers (27-4) meet the Ole Miss Rebels (22-10) in a SEC Tournament quarterfinal game Friday. Tip from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville is set for 1 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Ole Miss vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Auburn, which is No. 3 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll, enters on a 2-game losing streak, but is still the SEC Tournament’s No. 1 seed. It lost 83-72 on the road to the No. 16 Texas A&M Aggies on March 4 and then at home to the No. 8 Alabama Crimson Tide 93-91 Saturday. The Tigers failed to cover as a 7-point favorite in that game and are 4-4 against the spread (ATS) in their last 8 contests. They are 18-13 ATS on the season.

The 8th-seeded Rebels beat the No. 9-seeded Arkansas Razorbacks 93-80 Thursday in the second round of the tournament, closing as a 4.5-point neutral-court favorite. F Malik Dia led the way with 19 points on 7-for-8 shooting. Ole Miss came into the tournament having lost 4 of their last 6 games, going 1-5 ATS in those. Ole Miss is 15-16-1 ATS on the season.

Auburn won 92-82 at Mississippi on Feb. 1 and won 106-76 at home on Feb. 26.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Ole Miss vs. Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 85, Ole Miss 77

Moneyline

PASS.

There’s no reason to consider a moneyline play here. Auburn won both matchups in the regular season with ease and should come out on top, yet they aren’t worth a play as an expensive favorite.

Against the spread

BET OLE MISS +11.5 (-110).

The Tigers haven’t covered well as a double-digit favorite over the last several weeks. They are just 1-3 ATS in those battles and are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 across all competitions. The Tigers’ defense hasn’t been excellent either, allowing 76 or more points in 4 straight games.

The Rebels are 1-2 ATS as a double-digit underdog, with all 3 of those games coming on the road. They have scored 76 or more points in both games against Auburn and have hit at least 76 points in 4 of their last 5 contests. Expect Ole Miss’s offense to allow it to keep within 11 points.

Back OLE MISS +11.5 (-110).

Over/Under

BET OVER 154.5 (-110).

The Tigers are 5-0 O/U in their last 5 games and 20-11 O/U on the season. They have scored at least 91 points in 3 of their last 4 games and at least 92 points in both games against Ole Miss.

The Rebels have gone Over in 5 straight games as well and in 9 of their last 11 contests. They have allowed at least 80 points in 4 of their last 5 games, so neither defense has played well over the last few weeks. Considering those trends, back OVER 154.5 (-110).

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 1 Auburn Tigers (27-3, 15-2 SEC) welcome the No. 8 Alabama Crimson Tide (23-7, 12-5) to Neville Arena in Auburn, Alabama, Saturday. Tip-off is set for 2:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Alabama vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Auburn, which is No. 1 in the USA TODAY Sports Men’s Basketball Coaches Poll, lost 83-72 at the No. 21 Texas A&M Aggies Tuesday, failing to cover as a 3.5-point favorite. The Tigers had their 6-game winning streak snapped with the loss. They are 2-3 against the spread (ATS) in their last 5 games and 18-12 ATS on the season.

The Crimson Tide, who come in at No. 8 in the Coaches Poll, are riding back-to-back losses after a 99-94 setback vs. the visiting No. 5 Florida Gators Wednesday. They failed to cover as 3.5-point favorites, but are 3-1 ATS in their last 4 games. Alabama is 17-13 ATS on the season.

Alabama at Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 86, Alabama 84

Moneyline

PASS.

There’s no playable wager on the moneyline. Despite winning all but 1 home game this season, the Tigers are too sizable of a favorite to take outright. They should come out on top, but ultimately the moneyline should be avoided.

Against the spread

BET ALABAMA +7.5 (-105).

The Tigers are 1-3 ATS in conference play when facing teams that are ranked No. 21 or higher in the Coaches Poll. The lone cover was a 94-85 win at the Crimson Tide in a Feb. 15 meeting. The Tigers are just 1-3 ATS in their last 4 home games as well.

The Crimson Tide are 2-1 ATS in their last 3 games as underdogs and 2-1 ATS in their last 3 on the road. Alabama has scored at least 94 points in 4 of its last 5 games, so it should have the firepower to keep things close. While it did lose to Auburn earlier in the season, it should shoot better than 19% from deep in this one.

Take ALABAMA +7.5 (-105).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 178.5 (-110).

The Crimson Tide have allowed 83 or fewer points in 3 of their last 4 games.

The Tigers have a similar trend, allowing 83 or fewer points in 5 straight. Expect the defenses to dominate, and take UNDER 178.5 (-110).

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 1 Auburn Tigers (27-2, 15-1 SEC) and No. 21 Texas A&M Aggies (20-9, 9-7) meet Tuesday. Tip-off from Reed Arena in College Station is set for 9 p.m. ET (ESPN).

Auburn at Texas A&M picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 83, Texas A&M 65

Moneyline

PASS.

Auburn is the much better team and will easily win here as a -200 favorite. However, it’s not worth the risk of betting on at this price. PASS, and bet the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

BET AUBURN -4.5 (-110).

Auburn has covered the spread in back-to-back games, while the Aggies have dropped 4 straight ATS. The Tigers are also 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games and 18-11 ATS this season, while TAMU is just 3-6-1 ATS in its last 10 and 14-13-2 ATS this year.

Texas A&M only averages 73.8 points per game (PPG), while Auburn averages 85.4, so look for Auburn’s offense to be too much for the Aggies to handle.

Be aware that the Aggies are 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 152.5 (-115).

The Under has hit in 6 of the Aggies’ last 10 games and is 18-11 for the Aggies this season.

Both teams have great defenses, with Texas A&M allowing just 67.4 PPG and Auburn right behind at 68.8. Look for these defenses to be the key to the Under hitting.

This is a lean because the Over is 8-2 in Auburn’s last 10 games and 18-11 for the Tigers this season.

Florida at Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Florida at Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 6 Florida Gators (19-3, 6-3 SEC) visit the No. 1 Auburn Tigers (21-1, 9-0) Saturday at Neville Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for 4 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Florida vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Gators topped Vanderbilt 86-75 last time out on Tuesday as 10-point favorites while the Over (155.5) cashed. Florida was able to rebound after getting crushed 64-44 Feb. 1 at Tennessee as a 3-point underdog while the Under (144.5) hit. The Under is 3-1-1 in the past 5 games, while the total has gone low at a 7-3-1 clip in the previous 11 outings.

The top-ranked Tigers roughed up Oklahoma 98-70 as a 17.5-point favorite Tuesday while the Over (153.5) cashed. Auburn has covered the past 3 games, while the Over has also gone 3-0 in that span. Auburn has won 14 in a row since its lone loss at Duke on Dec. 4.

The home team has won 4 in a row in this series since Jan. 8, 2022, while the Gators have covered the previous 3 regular-season meetings. The Under is 4-0 in the past 4 in the series and 9-1 in the previous 10 encounters since Feb. 24, 2018.

Florida at Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 87, Florida 75

Moneyline

Auburn (-475) will set you back almost 5 times your potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not enough reward in this battle of top-10 teams.

However, Florida (+360) cannot be trusted after its egg-laying against Tennessee last week, when the Gators managed just 44 points in a rout.

AVOID.

Against the spread

PLAY AUBURN -9.5 (-110) is worth playing lightly in this SEC top-10 clash.

Florida +9.5 (-110) would be attractive to play normally, but after it completely wet the bed at Tennessee in its most recent marquee game, the Gators cannot be trusted.

Auburn has covered 3 in a row, including a 28-point win at home against Oklahoma last time out. Meanwhile, Florida is just 3-3 ATS in the past 6 games, while going 0-2 SU/ATS in 2 games as an underdog this season.

Over/Under

OVER 157.5 (-110) is worth a look.

The Over hit last time out for the Gators against Vanderbilt, although the Under is 3-1-1 in the past 5 outings.

For the Tigers, the Over has cashed in 3 in a row, while the Over is 5-3 in the past 8 outings, while cashing at a 12-7 clip in the previous 19 contests.

Oklahoma at Auburn odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Oklahoma at Auburn odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Oklahoma Sooners (16-5, 3-5 SEC) visit the No. 1 Auburn Tigers (20-1, 8-0) Tuesday at Neville Arena. Tip-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Oklahoma vs. Auburn odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

The Sooners are coming off a 97-67 rout of the Vanderbilt Commodores last time out Saturday as a 3-point favorite, rebounding from a 75-68 loss at the Texas A&M Aggies in the previous outing. Since a 4-game skid from Jan. 4-15, Oklahoma has won 3 of the past 4 outings, while covering 4 straight games. The Over has a 3-2 edge in the past 5 contests, while going 7-4 in the past 11 outings.

The top-ranked Tigers have won 13 games in a row since their lone loss of the season at the Duke Blue Devils 84-78 on Dec. 4. Auburn has covered the past 2 games, including a 92-82 win at the Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday, but it is just 3-6 against the spread (ATS) in the past 9 games. Auburn is just 1-3 ATS in the past 4 games at home, too.

Oklahoma at Auburn picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 85, Oklahoma 71

Moneyline

Auburn (-2000) will cost you 20 times your potential return, which means you’d need to risk $100 for every $5 of profit. That’s an insane amount of risk, and it isn’t worth playing either straight up or as part of a multi-leg parlay. There is just no value here.

AVOID.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now!

Against the spread

OKLAHOMA +16.5 (-110) isn’t likely to come close to an upset of the top-ranked Auburn -16.5 (-110) side, but this is an awful lot of points, too.

The Sooners have rattled off a season-high 4 consecutive covers, and Oklahoma is 5-2 ATS in 7 games as an underdog with 4 outright victories.

On the flip side, the Tigers are just 3-6 ATS in the past 9 games, while going 1-4 ATS in the past 5 games as a double-digit favorite.

Over/Under

OVER 154.5 (-115) is the lean in this SEC battle, but go with a half-unit play at most.

The Over has hit in the past 2 games for Auburn, while holding a slight 4-3 edge in the past 7 outings. However, be careful, as the Under has hit in 3 of the past 4 home contests for the Tigers.

The Over is 3-2 in the past 5 games for Oklahoma, while cashing at a 7-4 clip in the previous 11 outings. On the road, the Under has hit in 3 in a row, though, so be careful.

Auburn at Ole Miss odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Auburn at Ole Miss odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

Auburn at Ole Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 74, Ole Miss 71

Moneyline

PASS.

The Tigers are rolling and are the better team. They should come out on top despite being on the road, but they aren’t worth playing as -275 favorites.

Against the spread

BET OLE MISS +6.5 (-115).

The Tigers have won often on the road but haven’t covered with any consistency. They are just 1-4 ATS in away games and 2-3 ATS as single-digit favorites this season. The Tigers are 2-5 ATS in conference play as well.

The Rebels are 5-3 ATS in conference play and 2-2 ATS in their last 4 at home. They have scored at least 72 points in 6 of their last 7, so they should be able to keep pace with Auburn’s efficient offense.

Considering those trends, back OLE MISS +6.5 (-115).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 148.5 (-105).

The Rebels have a capable defense, allowing 69 or fewer in every home game this season. In SEC play, they have allowed 51 to Georgia, 65 to LSU, 63 to Texas A&M and 69 to Texas at home, going Under in all 4 games.

The Tigers have scored 70 or fewer points in 2 of their last 3 games, going 1-2 O/U. They have allowed 68 or fewer in 4 of their last 5. With that in mind, back UNDER 148.5 (-105).

Auburn at LSU odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Auburn at LSU odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 1 Auburn Tigers (18-1, 6-0 SEC) and the LSU Tigers (12-7, 1-5) meet Wednesday at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Baton Rouge. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college basketball odds around the Auburn vs. LSU odds, and make our expert college basketball picks and predictions.

Auburn has rattled off 11 consecutive victories since its lone loss of the season at Duke Dec. 4. While Auburn has picked up plenty of wins, it is just 1-6 against the spread (ATS) in the past 7 outings. The Under has cashed in 5 of the past 7 games, too.

Auburn held off Tennessee 53-51 in a low-scoring game at home Saturday, although the Volunteers easily covered as 6.5-point underdogs while the Under (141.5) cashed.

LSU is unranked, and it’s having a difficult time. LSU has dropped 2 in a row and 5 of the past 6 outings while going just 5-6 ATS in the past 11 games. However, LSU has covered 3 in a row. The Under is on a 5-1 run in the previous 6 outings.

Auburn at LSU picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 78, LSU 69

Moneyline

Auburn (-900) will cost you 9 times your potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not nearly enough return. You can’t bet Auburn straight up, or even as part of a multi-leg parlay. Including Auburn will kill all of the value in your ticket.

PASS.

Against the spread

BACK LSU +11.5 (-105) at home, as it figures to be a little bit of a thorn in the side of Auburn -11.5 (-115).

Yes, Auburn is No. 1, and it hasn’t lost outright since early December. However, Auburn is just 1-6 ATS in the past 7 games and 0-4 ATS in the previous 4 as a double-digit favorite.

LSU may not be winning a lot, but it has covered 3 in a row. LSU has covered 2 of the past 3 meetings in Baton Rouge, too.

Over/Under

UNDER 148.5 (-105) is the lean in this tangle of the Tigers.

The total has gone low in 5 of the past 7 games for Auburn, while cashing in the previous 2 true road outings.

For LSU, the total has gone low in the past 2 outings, while hitting in 5 of the past 6 outings. LSU has scored 73 or fewer points in 5 of the past 6 outings, while allowing 80 or fewer points in 5 of the past 6 conference tilts.
