This college football season has been full of upsets, so it’s safe to say there will be some more favored teams that go down in Week 5.
On SEC Now on Tuesday, SEC Network analyst DJ Shockley said he predicts one undefeated SEC team will fall at home.
According to Shockley, the 4-0 LSU Tigers should watch their backs against Ole Miss this weekend:
“A bigger bold statement here — Jordan Ta’amu will throw for 350 yards and three TDs,” Shockley said. “I don’t believe LSU has three or four defensive backs that can cover all of the receivers that Ole Miss has. DK Metcalf, AJ Brown and the emergence of Braylon Sanders. They have monsters on the outside. You can’t cover all of those guys.”
That’s true, certainly, but Ole Miss’s defense also has to be able to stop the Tigers, and the Rebels haven’t been able to stop anyone this year.
Still, it should be a fun game in Baton Rouge. Tune in to ESPN at 9 p.m. Eastern time to find out who wins.
