Handicapper and USA Today sports analyst Danny Sheridan has confirmed that the Nov. 7 matchup between LSU and Alabama carries a current line of Alabama as the -6.5 point favorite. In a line posted by the Westgate Las Vegas on Oct. 19, Alabama was a -7.5 point favorite.

The line is expected to drop more after this weekend's rounds of games, with the fresh game week lines set to be released on Sunday night.

LSU (7-0) hasn't beaten Alabama (7-1) since their November 2011 9-6 meeting in Tuscaloosa.
