Saturday night in Death Valley, doesn’t get much better than that for LSU Tigers football. Add in a rivalry trophy and a day of tailgating then we have a real party on the Bayou.
Arkansas comes off a win over Mississippi State, while LSU took No. 2 Alabama to the limit in Tuscaloosa. The Hogs are 6-3 and the Tigers are 4-5, currently, the latter sits last in the SEC West. A win by LSU could swap spots, at least based on their conference records. LSU is 2-4 in conference play compared to Arkansas’ 2-3.
The Bayou Bengals know the importance of this game for their postseason hopes, the Razorbacks stamped their tickets for bowl season last week. However, with the Boot Trophy up for grabs don’t think Arkansas will hold anything back.
It will be interesting to see how long each quarterback plays in this game as both Max Johnson and Garrett Nussmeier got reps as QB1 throughout the week.
