This is a high-impact game. The winner is going to be the favorite to likely take on Georgia in the SEC Championship game. I think Alabama has slipped some over the last few years, and their margin for error has gotten much tighter, especially vs. an explosive LSU offense. that is putting up 47.4 PPG. Alabama is outgaining opponents by just a scant 61 yards per game, one of their slimmest margins in the Saban era. The defense is very good but not as good as we have seen in the past. Meanwhile, the LSU offense is ultra elite generating 553 yards per game, and 47.4 PPG. I think the best unit on the field by far is the LSU offense, and I don't think the Tide defense is in the same category. I like LSU on the moneyline.
