If you're planning your weekend around LSU, the Tigers come off the bye week at 6-2 after a 38-17 win at Auburn. They're still No. 15 in the AP Top 25 poll released Sunday, holding that spot ahead of Week 10 and going into the Alabama matchup. They're also 4.5-point favorites over Alabama, according to BetOnline Sports & Casino. Both teams have two losses, so a third would sting.
