In a rivalry that can get quite heated, LSU is set to host Ole Miss in Death Valley on Saturday. It’ll be a showdown of teams with fringe playoff hopes after taking an early loss this season.

LSU will have the luxury of operating coming off an extra week, getting a bye after dispatching South Alabama. Ole Miss has had to try to bounce back from its first loss of the season, a home game against Kentucky that slipped through the cracks.

According to lines listed by FanDuel, Ole Miss will open up as a 3.5-point favorite in the contest against LSU. The over/under point total for the game has been set at 65.5 points.

That sets the expectation going in: It should be a relatively close affair, perhaps decided by a few key plays made on either side. But it should be a fun one, to say the least.

Location: Baton Rouge, LA — Tiger Stadium

LSU has ripped off four straight wins after falling to USC in a competitive contest in the season opener, though most of the opponents were significantly overmatched.

Still, quarterback play has been a huge positive for the Tigers. In five games, Garrett Nussmeier has thrown for 1,652 yards and 15 touchdowns, against just four interceptions. He’s been the kind of stable presence every coach loves to have.

The Tigers also appear to have found some answers in the run game, where Caden Durham has emerged as the top threat.

Throw in receivers Aaron Anderson, Kyren Lacy and CJ Daniels, as well as tight end Mason Taylor and LSU has turned into a potent offense.

Perhaps not quite as potent as Ole Miss’s, though. The Rebels have been downright dominant and have even ranked as the nation’s top-ranked offense at various points this season.

It all starts with quarterback Jaxson Dart, who has the luxury of throwing to elite threats Tre Harris and Juice Wells at wideout and Caden Prieskorn at tight end.

One of the biggest concerns might just be Ole Miss’ health. The Rebels have been missing a slew of players, most recently including star defensive end Princely Umanmielen.

So the injury reports will be worth monitoring ahead of this contest.
