The defending national champions still have some fight in them. (Collegiate Wallpaper Image)

The LSU Tigers (7-3 SU, 2-7 ATS) took No. 1 Alabama to overtime two weeks ago, then came back from 28 points down in the second half to beat Troy 40-31. Admirable, but the Tigers failed to cash in both times. They’re 2-2 SU and 0-4 ATS in their last four games, all at home.

Game 5 will be Saturday afternoon at 3:30 p.m. Eastern against the Mississippi Rebels (6-4 SU, 6-3 ATS). Ole Miss hasn’t beaten the Tigers since 2001, but that didn’t stop the Rebs from getting paid in five of those six contests, all as underdogs of more than seven points. This year is different – LSU is only laying four points (-105).

LSU’s money woes fall mainly on the shoulders of first-year starting QB Jarrett Lee. He has 15 interceptions to go with his 14 touchdown passes. Get your college football betting in the Bodog Sportsbook.
