This week the 5th ranked Tigers play host to Southeastern Conference West Division rival 18th ranked Auburn. The last time that LSU was at home they had a 10 point fourth quarter to beat then 9th ranked Florida. After last week's loss the Tigers come in with a record of 6-1 SU (3-1 in the SEC West) but a bankroll draining 3-4 ATS.

Auburn comes into this one on a four game winning streak and sit at 5-2 SU (3-1 in the SEC West) and 4-3 ATS. They have done well on the road this year posting a 2-0 SU and ATS mark. Last week Auburn edged Arkansas in Fayetteville 9-7 as they held Heisman Trophy candidate Darren McFadden to just 43 yards on 17 carries. When these two teams met last year Auburn was ranked #3 and LSU #6 as Auburn won 7-3 despite being out gained 311-182.

TRENDS: LSU is 1-9 ATS (-8.9 Units) in home games against conference opponents over the last 3 seasons. Auburn coach Tommy Tuberville is 18-3 SU and ATS against and SEC opponent who has won 85% or better of their games and a perfect 7-0 ATS if they are a dog of 4 or more. LSU is also a horrible 0-4 ATS as a conference home favorite of 14 or less points.

My Opinion: Take Auburn plus the points.
