LSU Tigers v Alabama Crimson Tide o/u 41.5
LSU and 'Bama played in November. The Tigers won 9-6 in overtime. That's 15 points. While both of these teams commonly score in the 40's, against one another, they failed to reach the endzone. To reach 41.5 points will require fourteen field goals, or a few touchdowns. There's no gaurantee of either.
Both pick: Under 41.5
