This matchup is sure to be a thrilling battle on the gridiron between two powerhouse college football teams. Here, we take a closer look at LSU vs Florida and make our prediction for this huge game in the SEC.

LSU Hoping Softer Opponent Means Better Result

The LSU Tigers have lost two games in a row, falling against Texas A&M and Alabama. With three losses to their name, LSU’s College Football Playoff hopes are on life support. But the Tigers are hoping that not playing a highly-ranked opponent this week will help them to get back into the win column. The Tigers allowed 40 points per game to Bama and A&M and will need to be better on defense to end their two-game losing streak here.

Florida’s Scheduling Gauntlet Continues

Another team struggling with the tough schedule of the SEC is the Florida Gators. They have lost three of their last four games, with those losses all coming against CFP contenders in Tennessee, Georgia, and Texas. Things don’t get much easier for the Gators in this matchup with LSU. But Florida is at home in this game and they will hope that gives them a push in the right direction as they look to get to 5-5 on the year.

LSU vs Florida Prediction

Both teams in this LSU vs Florida matchup are struggling mightily but one of them has to win this game. We will go with LSU to win and cover the spread despite being on the road in this game, as they were looking like an elite team before their schedule got difficult again. Florida, meanwhile, has been too inconsistent to back in a game like this one and they should drop to 4-6 for the year.
