Auburn hopes home cooking will help lead to an upset over LSU

The home team is 14-2 SU in the last 16 games between the Auburn Tigers and the LSU Tigers. Auburn hopes to keep that trend going this Saturday at home against LSU.

  • Auburn is 0-9 ATS in its last nine games after losing as a favorite.
  • LSU is 9-1 SU in its last 10 games in Week 4.

After sitting out of LSU's 34-13 win over Jacksonville State, Leonard Fournette returned to help lead the team to a 23-20 win against Mississippi State last week with 147 yards and two touchdowns on 28 carries.
