LSU vs. Kentucky betting preview
LSU dominated McNeese State in a 63-14 final last week, as quarterback Sam Leavitt did not leave the pocket and did not play in the second half. Leavitt is backed up by a defense that leads the SEC in yards allowed per game and is third in points allowed per game. The Tigers also lead the conference in total offense (547.8).
Kentucky ranks ninth in total offense and 13th in total defense heading into Week 6. Quarterback Kenny Minchey is sixth in passing yards, sitting one spot behind Leavitt. The Wildcats fell out of the AP Poll last week, despite beating South Carolina in overtime.

Kentucky +9.5 vs. LSU
Kentucky rallied from a 17-0 deficit in its 35-34 win over South Carolina last week, giving the Wildcats a three-game winning streak. LSU linebacker Whit Weeks and tight end Trey-Dez Green are both sidelined indefinitely due to injuries, and the Tigers are going on the road for the first time since a 32-24 loss at then-No. 8 Ole Miss on Sept. 19. Kentucky has already knocked off Texas A&M this season, closing as a 17-point underdog in that game. The SportsLine Projection Model has LSU winning by four points as Kentucky covers in 62% of simulations on Saturday.
