Week 13 – Nov. 28: Home vs. Texas A&M, Tiger Stadium Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Fired up after another loss and trying to align all the cards to make it into the SEC Championship Game if they beat Alabama in week 10, LSU will without a doubt end the season with a win over Texas A&M.
Last season, the Tigers took down the Aggies in College Station in a 23-17 victory. The team was led by Fournette’s 146 rushing yards and touchdown in that game.
LSU hasn’t lost a season finale since 2010 and hasn’t lost a season finale at home since 2007. That 2007 game was a 50-48, triple overtime loss to Arkansas. There is no way the Aggies even score a fraction of 50 points against this passionate LSU team.
This season, Fournette will score twice and claim his spot as a finalist on postseason awards lists. The Tigers will stretch their winning streak against the Aggies to five.
LSU has potential to win the SEC West this season if they can take down top conference opponents but I only think they will be successful in doing so early in the 2015 season. LSU beats A&M by at least 18 points, getting a huge boost from having a good scouting report against the Aggies defense led by previous LSU defensive coordinator John Chavis.
Record after week 13: 9-3
