LSU vs. Auburn prediction, pick, odds, spread: Can Tigers pull off another stunner over Lane Kiffin's squad?

Can Auburn pull off consecutive top-25 upsets?
One week after stunning No. 1 Georgia, Auburn will try to replicate that effort against No. 18 LSU. Auburn will have the Jordan-Hare Stadium crowd on it side, but the team faces an uphill battle in the pursuit of two major upsets. Going into its open date, Auburn was coming off a loss to Tennessee and needed something to build upon. An upset of the No. 1 team in the country on the road will certainly suffice, and now Alex Golesh must find a way to sustain that momentum. If Auburn is going to give itself a shot to slay SEC dragons in consecutive weeks, it will need to put the game on the shoulders of Byrum Brown again.
He totaled 265 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Bulldogs. On the other hand, LSU will have to be wary of entering a hostile environment given its recent history. The team has lost both of its road games this season, and Lane Kiffin's struggles away from home date back to when he first accepted the Ole Miss job. The Baton Rouge-based Tigers just shut out a shorthanded Mississippi State team in Death Valley, and Sam Leavitt played the first clean game of his LSU tenure. He'll need to replicate that performance in Auburn. Before this battle of the Tigers
