LSU at Tennessee

February 14, 2026
img6:00 PM Eastern

The Tennessee Volunteers are 17-7 this season, and their KenPom rating is 18. They will host a hungry LSU team that comes into this contest at 14-10 and with a 55 KenPom rating. The Tigers have a lot more work to do to make it to the Dance. LSU has a scoring margin greater than its overall record at +6 points a game, while Tennessee is at +11. I think LSU is hungrier and much better than the huge line put out for this one. Make the play on LSU.

1.5 units on LSU +15 (-110) (risk 1.5 to return 2.86)
