Alabama at LSU

Alabama has won 5 of 7, off a tough loss to #23 Florida. They erased an 18-point first-half deficit to go ahead by as six before falling late. The Crimson Tide are 26-11 ATS following a spread loss. They face an LSU squad that can't stop anybody while losing four of five. The Tigers have allowed more than 90 points in four of their last five games. LSU is coming off a 92-62 road defeat to Texas A&M and the team sorely misses the defensive presence of forward Craig Victor II (10.5 points, 7.6 rebounds), who was dismissed in late December for violation of team rules. LSU is 3-8 ATS as a dog and 3-12 ATS following a straight up loss of more than 20 points. And when these rivals clash the favorite is 11-4-1 ATS. Play Alabama.
