College Football 2017: 5 teams on upset alert in Week 6
By Shane Lunnen
The Florida Gators have won three straight after losing in the opener to Michigan and all three have been SEC games. They will look to make that four straight at they welcome the LSU Tigers to Gainesville. The Gators are three-point favorites.
LSU is coming in wounded after their 24-21 upset loss last week to Troy. LSU outgained Troy 428 yards to 363. The Tigers, however, kept shooting themselves in the foot, turning over the ball four times. The Tigers also could not stay on the field, posting a goose egg on third-down efficiency with nine attempts.

LSU will be better in this game. They should re-group, suck up their pride and leave it all out on the field. They know if they don’t, the talk in Baton Rouge will just continue to get louder. LSU has also won five out of the last seven matchups against the Gators.
I’m still not buying Florida. Their offense is a mess. They may be winning, but at some point, the luck will run out. Last week, I picked Florida to lose and was wrong when the Gators beating Vanderbilt. At first you don’t succeed, try again.
