Arkansas vs. LSU: College football point spread and odds

The point spread, odds and betting preview of the Week 13 college football game Arkansas vs. LSU.

Arkansas vs. LSU: College football point spread and odds National title is what's at stake on Friday, when the No.1 LSU (10-1) will welcome the offensively capable Arkansas Razorbacks (7-4). LSU head coach Les Miles will not allow the possible Michigan job mess with his current season and at the online sportsbook Bodog Sports the point spread on the LSU vs. Arkansas game is currently sitting at -12 points chalk the Tigers. The bookies agree that LSU will be taking this game home and at Bookmaker the odds also favor the Tigers -405 and Arkansas is underdog with betting odds +335.

The point spread will take most of the action on this game, considering that Arkansas is 4-1 against the spread in its last 5 games and LSU is 1-6-1 against the spread in its last 8 games, the -12 points posted spread could be a though cookie. The Tigers, although securing their first outright Western Division title last Saturday with a 41-24 victory over Missouri, allowed 466 total yards. This problem should be worked out by Friday, when LSU will meet with the statistically better offense of Arkansas with 466.2 yards per game, or the Tigers could fail to cover the spread. The defense on the other side is the Achilles' heel of the Razorbacks, allowing 371.2 yards per game.

Questionable for LSU remains LB Darry Beckwith and for Arkansas CB Jerrell Norton, but RB Felix Jones has been upgraded to probable for the Week 13 game. Overall two healthy teams and we think that LSU will be able to work out the defensive issues by Friday and LSU will cover the -12 point spread when they meet Arkansas this week.
