Prediction

LSU has been labeled as the small favorite in this matchup and given their recent performances, looks to be the side worth betting on. Of course, with Arkansas having just had their off week, they have a small advantage in terms of rest and preparing for this game. That said, LSU has a potent offense, especially their passing offense, which averages more than 330 passing yards per game.

Arkansas’ offense has been more balanced, however, they have not scored nearly as many points in conference games compared to LSU. In three SEC games, Arkansas is averaging 18.33 points per game, while LSU is averaging 32.5 points in two SEC games. Because of LSU’s big play ability and because they look to be the better team overall, backing the Tigers to win and remain unbeaten in SEC play will be our best bet.
