The Oklahoma Sooners (6-5, 2-5 SEC) visit the LSU Tigers (7-4, 4-3 SEC) Saturday. Kickoff from Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds around the Oklahoma vs. LSU odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.
Neither prestigious program is ranked in the Coaches Poll (US LBM Coaches Poll), but both look to improve their prospects for a late-December bowl game.
The visiting Sooners ride into this game high after a 24-3 win over Alabama Nov. 23 that all but erased the perennial College Football Playoff invitee’s chances to reach the postseason. Oklahoma leaned on the ground game (QB Jackson Arnold‘s 131 rushing yards, Xavier Robinson‘s 2 TDs) and a pick-6.
Meanwhile, LSU stopped a 3-game losing streak — ranked Texas A&M, ranked Alabama, and Florida — with a 24-17 win over Vanderbilt Nov. 23. Tigers QB Garrett Nussmeier racked up 332 passing yards during the victory.

Oklahoma at LSU picks and predictions
Prediction
LSU 27, Oklahoma 20
Moneyline
The home favorite’s ML doesn’t carry much ROI with its over-200 juice, especially for a game with barely a 1-touchdown spread.
Unless it’s part of a parlay, bettors shouldn’t prioritize the Tigers’ moneyline.
PASS.
Against the spread
My favorite bet in this trio is the home squad ATS.
Bettors should look to the key number of 6 (or 5.5) for their target team. If you can still get it at 6, you can at least secure a push if the hosts win by a touchdown in overtime.
If it dips to 5.5 (-110) or lower, attack.
BET LSU -6 (110), or you can grab LSU -5.5 (-113) at FanDuel Sportsbook.
Over/Under
Both teams rank in the middle tiers of offensive points per game (LSU 28.6, Oklahoma 25).
While LSU’s defense boasts more elite talent, the Sooners should do enough to contribute to eclipsing the total.
BET OVER 46.5 (-115).
