Ole Miss suffered its first loss of the season to Brian Kelly’s Tigers. LSU is playing great football this season, with a chance at the SEC West title still within reach if the Tigers can vanquish Alabama in 2 weeks.
LSU has only lost twice this season, once to Florida State in Week 1 and again to No. 3 Tennessee, 40-13.
