Texas A&M vs. LSU Expert Picks for Saturday Night: College Football Week 4 Predictions

Saturday night's showdown brings us one of the biggest games of the college football season so far, and we have you covered with our Texas A&M vs. LSU expert picks. The No. 23 Aggies travel to take on the No. 10 Tigers at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with kickoff scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.

Texas A&M and LSU both enter the matchup at 2-1, setting up another important SEC battle between ranked teams. The Aggies return to Baton Rouge after defeating LSU 49-25 at Tiger Stadium last season, while the Tigers are looking to rebound from their Week 3 loss to Ole Miss.

Mike Spector's pick: LSU -8.5 (-108)

The lookahead line for this game over the summer was Ole Miss -2.5, and has since jumped the fence after LSU won its first two games by an average of 36 points. But the Rebels are the team that have a win over a ranked Louisville squad so far, and it’s likely that the Tigers’ blowout win over Clemson won’t look as impressive by the end of the season.

Lane Kiffin’s teams historically have been horrible in this spot. He is 1-8 as a head coach in road games against AP top 10 teams, with the lone win coming as coach of No. 18 USC over No. 4 Oregon in 2011. 

The home team has won the last six meetings in this rivalry, and I wouldn’t put anyone off backing the Ole Miss moneyline (+115 is the best price at bet365), even though I’m comfortable taking the points as my best bet.

LJ Blut's pick: Marcel Reed anytime TD (+145)

Marcel Reed has a strong opportunity to find the end zone on the ground against LSU this week. His mobility gives Texas A&M another weapon near the goal line, where designed quarterback runs and scrambles can create valuable scoring chances. Reed’s ability to extend plays with his legs also makes him dangerous when passing lanes break down.

Against an LSU defense that must account for his arm and the Aggies’ rushing attack, Reed could find openings in the red zone. If Texas A&M reaches the goal line multiple times, Reed has the rushing touchdown upside to capitalize.

Brenden Schaeffer's pick: Over 51.5 (-110)

In a way, Lane Kiffin is the architect of both offenses in this game. Both teams are averaging preposterous scoring rates early in the season, with Ole Miss at 41.0 PPG and LSU even higher, at 48.0 PPG.

While the Tigers’ defense could mute some of the scoring potential to some extent, there are multiple Heisman candidates on the other side of a charged-up environment. Ole Miss won’t get shut down entirely.

Both teams hitting 30+ points wouldn’t surprise me, so I like the Over up to at least 60 points in this one.
