Predicting UAB matchup in Week 12

LSU got the win last week, but it wasn’t pretty. A matchup with UAB offers LSU one last chance at a tune-up before traveling to A&M and facing Georgia in the SEC title game. UAB isn’t a cupcake though. The Blazers’ offense, led by one of the nation’s top running backs, is efficient and dangerous.

The secondary features some of the best DBs in the G5. Furthermore, it’s a group fighting to get bowl eligible and maybe help their interim head coach get the full-time gig. But I think LSU has a sour taste in its mouth after last week.

It’s senior night and with the postseason approaching, I expect LSU to be locked in. Look for the Tigers to start hot on offense and continue their excellent red zone defense. An efficient game from Jayden Daniels helps the Tigers win and cover.

Prediction: LSU 31, UAB 13
