LSU vs Oklahoma Prediction
I’m on LSU here. I think Oklahoma spent everything they had last week on stopping Alabama on Senior Day out of their bye week and are now set up for a huge flat spot here. I think LSU on senior night in Baton Rouge is a tall task for any team, especially an underwhelming Oklahoma team that really hasn’t had any offense to speak of in conference play. Give me LSU big here.
