No. 52: LSU 49, Florida 42
If you loved offensive play this was the game for you. If you loved defense, you wanted to avoid watching this scoring outburst by both teams. On this day it was about Ty Davis-Price rushing for a school-record 287 yards on virtually the same play over and over. The Gators continued to turn the ball over but LSU couldn’t pull away as it came down the fourth quarter when it was tied at 42. Max Johnson found Jaray Jenkins for the game-winning score with 3:30 left in the game for the win. Damone Clark picked off Anthony Richardson with the Gators driving late to seal it.
What ESPN Says…
There was no way this matchup was going to live up to its 2020 version, but it tried. LSU torched Florida for 321 rushing yards and led most of the way. Florida tied the game on a pass from Anthony Richardson to Jacob Copeland, but Jaray Jenkins scored with 3:30 left, and Damone Clark picked off Richardson to ice the Tigers’ third straight win in the series.
