LSU is coming into this game with a 5-1 record this season and they are 2-0 in the conference. They are coming off of a big win over Ole Miss in their last game, beating them 29-26 in OT after trailing for most of the game, but now they are going on the road here to play their 2nd road game of the season. They won their only other road game against South Carolina, but they won 36-33 in a game they were trailing a lot early on and had to pull off a comeback to win, just like they did last week. They are going up against an Arkansas team that is 4-2 this season and 2-1 in the conference. Their only loss in the conference came against Texas A&M at a neutral location 21-17, but they have a road win over Auburn 24-14 and an upset win at home over Tennessee 19-14. That Tennessee upset was in their last game, but they are also coming off of a bye and have had 2 weeks to settle down from that win. Their defense has been playing very well since starting their conference schedule, allowing just 14 points in 2 of their 3 games and only 21 points in their loss as well. They have also been great at stopping the run as they average 106.5 rushing yards allowed per game and 3.5 yards per carry. LSU is more of a pass heavy team anyway, but they will not be able to run the ball on this defense with their weaker run game and that will turn them very 1-dimensional as Arkansas also has a good pass defense. LSU has been better on defense themselves this season, but they still have not been great and Arkansas is going to find success on the ground with their stronger run game at home. That will open up the passing game for them as well and this is an LSU defense that struggled to stop both the run and the pass against Ole Miss last week. Arkansas has been flying under the radar this season but they have a very good defense that has been showing up in these conference games and they will be hungry for another upset win at home coming off of their bye. Arkansas will cover the spread in this game.
