LSU at Mississippi State picks and predictions

Prediction

LSU 38, Mississippi State 28

Moneyline

PASS.

While Mississippi State is playing at home, LSU should take this game with ease. But at -375 odds, there is very little profit to be made by backing the Tigers.

Against the spread

LEAN LSU -9.5 (-115).

While the Tigers had a rough start to the season, they had a tune-up game last week against Grambling. Their offense was firing on all cylinders while their defense only allow 10 points. Daniels and company are looking to show why they belong in the Top 10 again and a conference road victory is the 1st step to making that happen.

While the Bulldogs defense forced 5 turnovers last week, they allowed 17 2nd-half points which could prove fatal against the Tiger’s offense. The turnovers will not come as easy this week.

Over/Under

BET OVER 54.5 (-110).

Mississippi State has scored 48 and 31 points respectively in each of its first 2 games while LSU has scored 45 and 72 points. Both teams have showcased they are more than capable of finding the end zone and this game could turn into a shootout real quick. Expect points early and often in this matchup.

LSU at Mississippi State odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s LSU Tigers at Mississippi State Bulldogs odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The LSU Tigers (2-1) and Mississippi State Bulldogs (2-1) hook up for an SEC opener Saturday at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville, Miss. Kickoff is scheduled for noon ET. Below, we look at the LSU at Mississippi State odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Tigers picked up their first cover against the spread, beating Central Michigan 49-21 last week as 19.5-point home favorites. After two games where the offense wasn’t quite hitting on all cylinders, the Tigers showed out.

Mississippi State’s “Air Raid” offense of head coach Mike Leach was grounded by Memphis last week at the Liberty Bowl as the Bulldogs fell 31-29. The Bulldogs are averaging just 26.5 points per game across the past two games, both Under results after an Over to open the season.

LSU at Mississippi State odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

LSU 31, Mississippi State 24

Money line

LSU (-135) is a good play straight up if you don’t want to fiddle around with the points and just want to pick a winner. Playing the Bayou Bengals at this price is not terribly out of line.

Against the spread

LSU -2.5 (-103) looks to have solved its initial offensive woes. After an opening-season loss at UCLA, the Tigers appear to have figured things out on offense. QB Max Johnson threw for 372 yards with 5 touchdowns last against CMU, and WR Deion Smith looks to be the next great receiver in a long line of great Tigers wideouts.

Mississippi State has an unbalanced offense, leaning obviously toward the pass with QB Will Rogers at the helm. However, LSU has a very good pass rush, and Rogers will likely have plenty of grass stains on his britches before the dust settles here.

Over/Under

UNDER 56.5 (-108) is the lean, ever so slightly. I trust that LSU has found its rhythm on offense. However, we have only seen the Tigers on the road once, and it wasn’t great. Mississippi State has been hard on the opposition, limiting teams to 317.3 total yards per game.

Don’t expect a track meet in Stark Vegas.
