Tennessee's football program is in disarray after the firing of Butch Jones, who was replaced by former Michigan and San Diego State head coach Brady Hoke. The Volunteers have lost five of their last six games and are just 3-7 ATS this season, including Saturday's 50-17 embarrassment at Missouri. Tennessee was outgained 659-285 and allowed the Tigers an astonishing 433 rushing yards on 8.2 yards per carry. Quarterback Will McBride was 16 of 32 for 139 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for the Volunteers, who are 1-5 ATS their last six games after allowing at least 450 yards their previous game. The road team is 5-0-2 ATS the last seven meetings and LSU has rebounded nicely from its humbling loss to Troy in September by winning four of its next five and covering the spread its last four contests, including a 33-10 win over Arkansas last week. Danny Etling managed a smart game for the Tigers completing 11 of 16 for 217 yards with two TDs and no picks and Derrius Guice ran for 147 yards on 7.0 yards per rush. LSU has covered six of its last eight road games while Tennessee is 1-4 ATS its last five home games and 2-7 ATS after a loss of at least 20 points. Take LSU.
