LSU is playing a UCLA team that is a former shell of themselves. They have lost so much production this season and so far it has shown that they are struggling on both sides of the ball. It’s tough to play in Death Valley and get a win and the Bruins will have a long day with a team that will want to blow them out at home. They played an impressive game last week on the road, coming from behind. This will be a statement game for LSU and laying the points makes sense in this spot as they put it all together at home playing a much weaker foe. The Bruins are 1-3 against the spread on the road in their last four games. UCLA is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games when playing as the underdog. LSU is 11-3 against the spread as a home favorite and 4-1 against the spread as a favorite of 10.5 to 21 points.

Best bet: lay the points with LSU.
