2017 Week 6 College Football Picks – LSU @ #21 Florida Odds & Free Pick 10/7/17
The LSU Tigers enter this SEC matchup on Saturday looking to rebound after losing at home last Saturday to Troy by a score of 24-21. The loss dropped the Tigers to 3-2 overall and 1-4 against the spread.
LSU is 0-1 in the SEC this season as they lost their SEC opener 37-7 at Mississippi State on September 16th. The Tigers defense has been a big time disappointment so far this season and has allowed 87 points in the last three weeks. The defense gave up 37 points and 465 total yards at Mississippi State on September 16th, 26 points and 384 total yards at home versus Syracuse on September 23rd and 24 points and 363 total yards at home against Troy last week. The defense ranks 32nd in the nation in total scoring but those numbers are inflated due to their first two games against BYU and Chattanooga.
The LSU offense hasn’t been much better than the defense this season. The offense comes into this game 82nd in the nation in total scoring at just 27 points per game. However, the offense is better than those numbers show in our eyes and they do get some solid quarterback play. Senior signal caller Danny Etling has a 150.8 quarterback rating and has thrown for 5 touchdowns against only 1 interception so far this season while completing 60.8 percent of his passes.
The Florida Gators come into this home SEC showdown with an overall record of 3-1 and 1-3 against the spread. The Gators are coming off of a 38-24 home win over Vanderbilt as a -9 point favorite last week. The win improved the Gators to 2-0 in the SEC this season.
The Gators are ranked 21st in the nation this week but the numbers show a team that is mediocre on both sides of the ball. The Gators come in ranked as the nation’s 80th scoring offense at just 27.3 points per game and the country’s 71st scoring defense by giving up 26 points per game.
The Gators will be turning the ball back over to redshirt freshman quarterback Feleipe Franks this week after Luke Del Rio was knocked out for the season last week with a collarbone injury. Franks started the first three games this season but was benched after failing to please head coach Jim McElwain during the 2nd half of the Gators 28-27 win at Kentucky on September 23rd.
Who are we betting on to cover the spread in the LSU @ #21 Florida game? Florida won last year’s game 16-10 at LSU but LSU won the previous three seasons against the Gators including a 30-27 win the last time they were in the Swamp on October 11, 2014. This is a must win game for LSU as they are already 0-2 in the SEC and the heat is on first year head coach Ed Orgeron. We like LSU to come out motivated and beat a Florida team that is mediocre on both sides of the ball and playing a redshirt freshman quarterback that isn’t ready for primetime.Bet on LSU to cover as +2.5 point underdog at Bovada Sportsbook.
