Pick
I’m sticking with Alabama here. The Tide really put the boots to Vanderbilt last time out and I’m worried the same fate could be in store for LSU even with Alabama on the road. LSU has looked lifeless for the better part of the calendar year and conference play and while the Tigers would like some revenge after getting 40-pieced by Alabama in Tuscaloosa, I want a million dollars in my bank account tomorrow, but we don’t always get what we want. This Alabama team is simply too good and I look for LSU to struggle once again here. Give me Alabama.
