LSU to face Florida in home night game in Week 11

LSU will host Florida at 6:30 p.m. CT on the SEC Network.

After Saturday’s frustrating loss on the road against Alabama, LSU doesn’t have much time to reflect on that game.

The Tigers return home this weekend to host a cross-division rival in Florida, which is coming off a very disappointing loss of its own at home against an Arkansas team that was previously winless in the SEC.

This could be a bounce-back opportunity against a 5-4 Florida team that has struggled on defense recently, and the Tigers will face the Gators under the lights in Death Valley.

The game was in the mix for the 2:30 CT conference game of the week time slot on CBS, but on Sunday, it was announced the game will be at 6:30 on the SEC Network.

With both teams losing this weekend, a matchup that could have had division implications no longer carries the same weight. Still, LSU will have the benefit of a raucous home crowd on its side in this one.
