Army vs LSU Odds: The Tigers, favored by 30, aim to dominate.
LSU Steps Out of Conference Play One Last Time to Meet Up For the Army Black Knights
LSU Quarterback Jayden Daniels to Making A Move in the Heisman Trophy Race
Coming off games with 49, 49 and 48 points, the Louisiana State Tigers step out of SEC play one last time to face an Army team that has allowed more than 400 yards in two of the previous three games. The Army vs. LSU odds have the Tigers as heavy favorites.
This is the first meeting between the teams since 1931, when the Black Knights won 20-0.
The college football betting lines have LSU as a 30-point favorite.
The Tigers are 4-3-1 against the spread in their last eight games when favored by at least 20 points. Army is 1-3-1 in its five games as double-digit underdogs.
Quarterback Bryson Daily (712 passing yards, six TD passes to go with a team-best 412 rushing yards), receiver Isaiah Alston (a team-high 241 receiving yards), and running back Miles Stewart are all questionable for Army.
For LSU, receiver Chris Hilton (5 catches, 104 yards) is questionable. When looking at the NCAA football schedule, if Tennessee beats Alabama this weekend, LSU will move into a tie for first place in the SEC West race heading into its bye week.
LSU moved up three spots to No. 19 in the Associated Press poll and is also 19th in the American Football Coaches Association poll.
The Tigers are priced at +10000 in the odds of winning the national title.

Army Looks To Hit the Ground Running
Army is once again among the national leaders in rushing attempts. However, the Black Knights average just 4.06 yards per carry, and with the option offense run by the Black Knights resulting in running plays most of the time, that is a problem.
Army has been held under 200 rushing yards in each of the last three games. The last time the Black Knights went four games in a row failing to hit the 200-yard mark in rushing yards came during the 2009 season. Keep that in mind when looking at the Army vs LSU odds.
Army is 2-0 this year when topping 200 yards and 0-4 when going under that mark.
LSU is 13th out of 14 SEC in rushing defense, allowing 157.3 yards per game.
The total has gone over in six of Army’s last nine games.
Daniels Getting Passing Grades
LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels has four straight games with at least three touchdown passes and has completed more than 70% of his passes in the last three games. He also has 322 rushing yards and two scoring runs in the last three games, helping LSU rank in the top three nationally in points and yards per game.
When checking out the Army vs LSU odds, remember that Daniels is the top-rated quarterback at the Football Bowl Subdivision level, as he is one of three FBS passers with more than 20 touchdown passes while averaging more than 10 yards per attempt. He is tied for fifth at +1400 in the odds of winning the Heisman Trophy.
When making NCAAF scores predictions, keep in mind that the total has gone over in each of LSU’s last 10 games as well as in the previous six games at home.
Last Meeting
Good luck finding much footage from the 1931 game when Army was among the top programs in the nation.
Army has won two of its last three games against SEC teams. However, the 2023 LSU team is a much more talented squad than either the 2021 Missouri team or the 2009 Vanderbilt team.
Army vs LSU Betting Preview
It is not too often that a -10000 Moneyline appears for a major college football game, so unless you have a strong suspicion that Army is primed for the upset of all upsets, it is probably get to stay away from this game.
With a bye week followed by a matchup against Alabama that could decide the SEC West Division race, LSU would love to jump out early and get the top players out of the game early on.
Going up on Army is also helpful since the Black Knights are among 10 FBS teams yet to throw for at least 1000 yards.
The Black Knights are among the toughest teams in the country to score against in the first quarter, allowing just 1.5 points in the opening quarter of games.
LSU’s defense is certainly not the strength of this team and defending option offenses can be challenging since it is not something a team like LSU sees very often.
Army is 8-3-1 against the spread in its last 12 games.
There has been some early money on Army to cover as 30-point underdogs as the Black Knights are always threats to eat up time with time-consuming drives.
The total of 58 could be a little risky to roll with for the same reason.
