LSU has covered once in their last 5 games (losing by 3 to Alabama). In fact, they really haven't been all that close to covering lately. In the last 3 games teams have started to perform better against LSU's defense. Couple that with the fact the offense (though very slightly better) has remained inconsistent, and it is hard to see LSU covering a 14.5 spread. LSU has only won one SEC game by double-digits all season. Ole Miss isn't a great team by any means. But I still have a hard time seeing LSU being good enough offensively to win any game by 15 points.


LSU's point guard has been hurt during that entire stretch. Darius Days was also hurt and missed some time. Hopefully both will be back to 100% tongiht, as both got some playing time in the TCU game which was encouraging regardless of the outcome.

Days looked pretty healthy against TCU.


Pinson idk he looked alright but just a little fragile, some poster pointed out right before half it look like a guy bumped his knee and either freaked him out or hurt him. I would be encouraged if he can 10ish minutes tonight too. Hopefully the tigers pull away so we won't really need him out there.

Days only missed one full game. And LSU's offense wasn't terribly efficient BEFORE Pinson was injured. I think LSU wins tonight, but a +15 scoring margin seems a bit optimistic. To get that margin you are likely talking about LSU having to score around 75 points...something they have only done once vs. solid competition since Dec. 1
