College football betting on Saturday, September 20th is highlighted by the ESPN nationally televised game between LSU and Auburn. The two teams are bitter rivals in the SEC and they traditionally play excellent games that go down to the wire in NCAA football betting. NCAA football betting odds on this game should be among the most popular of the NCAA football week.
NCAA football betting stats show that the rivalry between Auburn and LSU dates back to 1901 although the teams didn’t always meet in many decades. Recently though, the two teams have played a lot and the games have been superb. Between 2000 and 2005, Auburn or LSU won or tied for the SEC Western Division title every year according to college football betting stats. Last year’s game may have been the best one and the most important one in the series according to NCAA football betting information. Demetrius Byrd made a last second TD catch to win the game for LSU 30-24 over Auburn according to college football betting stats. The ending was unbelievable as LSU head coach Les Miles went for a long pass instead of the tying field goal, believing there would be enough time for the field goal. It didn’t matter as Byrd caught the TD pass and LSU won in NCAA football betting. LSU went on to win the SEC title and the BCS National Championship game and college football betting history will point to the Auburn game as the main reason why.
NCAA football betting history shows that the two teams have split their last 10 meetings. Auburn is 6-4 against the college football betting stats in those games including the pointspread cover last season. Auburn has been very successful in this series at home of late, winning the last four according to NCAA football betting stats. Until last season this series had been a huge under series in terms of over/unders in NCAA football betting. Last year the total went over as 54 points were scored according to NCAA football betting stats. Before last year, the two teams had gone under the NCAA football betting pointspread in six straight seasons according to NCAA football betting history.
