Auburn vs. LSU

Auburn is turning it on at the right time, winning two games the last two nights. They beat Mississippi State as a dog (74-68) then turned around and topped Texas A&M last night (66-59) as a +8.5 dog. Auburn coach Bruce Pearl has these guys focused and hungry. "Nobody else expected us to be in the situation we're in, but we know how good we are, and if we play defense the way we've been doing like the last few games, we can beat anybody," said guard K.T. Harrell. Auburn held Texas A&M to just two field goals in the first 18 minutes of the second half after seizing the momentum with a 16-1 run coming out of halftime. Auburn is on a 4-0 ATS run and faces an LSU team that is 2-5 ATS at neutral sites, plus 1-4 ATS against a team with a losing record. LSU is a big favorite but when these SEC rivals meet the underdog is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings. Grab the points on Auburn.
