College football betting favors LSU by five touchdowns on Saturday as they host Tulane. The 9th ranked Tigers only concern in this game will be staying healthy since Tulane has no real chance of winning the game. They could, however, stay within the NCAA football betting pointspread. College football betting has LSU as a 35 point favorite against Tulane with a total of 46. The Tigers have won the last 17 games against Tulane and should have no trouble making it 18 in a row. LSU is likely to be looking ahead to next week’s college football betting game against Alabama in Tuscaloosa. “Our football team recognizes that if they do the things that they are capable of, we’ll get to a position where we’ll play for everything that we want,” LSU coach Les Miles said.
Last week LSU rolled over Auburn 31-10 in college football betting as quarterback Jordan Jefferson completed 21 of 31 passes for a career-high 242 yards with two touchdowns. “We always knew we could do this as an offense,” said Jefferson. Wide receiver Terrance Toliver had nine catches for 86 yards and a touchdown as college football betting stats showed.
Tulane doesn’t figure to give LSU too many problems in this NCAA football betting contest but they do have running back Andre Anderson, who is 30th in the country with 92.3 rushing yards per game. He is really the only player who might be able to put Tulane in a position to avoid getting shutout in this college football betting game. “Their defense is playing really well,” Tulane head coach Bob Toledo said about LSU, “They’re playing hard – they don’t give up yards – they don’t give up points.”
The Tigers lead the all-time series 66-24-7. One of the few positives for Tulane in college football betting is that they are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 vs. the SEC. The Green Wave are 1-4 in NCAA football betting in their last 5 games as a road underdog and they are 2-9 in college football betting in their last 11 games overall.
LSU has been tough in non-conference games in college football betting. The Tigers are 14-5 in NCAA football betting in their last 19 non-conference games. LSU has struggled at home though laying points in college football betting. The Tigers are 2-6 in college football betting in their last 8 games as a home college football betting favorite.
