4* Free Week 3 NCAA Betting Prediction: LSU -9.5
For this game, I’m favoring LSU to cover the spread at -9.5. Daniels, Diggs, Nabers et al will all be too much for the Dogs on Saturday.
In the Tigers’ recent matchup, they crushed Grambling 72-10. LSU knows how to put points on the board, and I reckon they’ll have no problem advancing up the field against the Bulldogs.
LSU showcased a strong rushing game in their previous matchup against Grambling, and I expect them to carry that momentum into this week’s matchup. I’ll be placing my bet on LSU before the game starts.
My big best in this game is on the total! LSU’s games have both gone OVER the total this year, and this one will too!
Both QBs got game. In the last showdown in 2022, Rodgers threw for 214 yards, snagged a TD, but also chucked an INT. Daniels, on the other hand, put up 210 yards and a TD. LSU came out on top with a 31-16 victory. It’s gonna be a QB showdown once again, folks!
