Lock it in with Alex: LSU-Alabama features 'best play of the day'


The 13th-ranked LSU Tigers (6-2, 4-1 SEC) visit the No. 8 Alabama Crimson Tide (7-1, 5-0) Saturday. Kickoff from Bryant-Denny Stadium is scheduled for 7:45 p.m. ET (CBS).

SportsbookWire.com's Alex White points out Alabama looks to avenge last season's 32-31 overtime loss at LSU, and that a Nick Saban club hasn't lost to the same team in back-to-back seasons since 2014-15 (Ole Miss).

But Alex adds that LSU's "offense is special [and QB] Jayden Daniels has been very good."

One quarterback will have a big game Saturday. Will it be Daniels or Alabama's Jalen Milroe?

Alabama is favored by 3 points with -115 juice, per BetMGM Sportsbook as of 7:29 a.m. ET.
