LSU vs Florida: Is anyone taking the Tigers to win?

Staff predictions and expert picks for the LSU-Florida game in Death Valley.

The kick-off between the LSU Tigers and Florida Gators from Tiger Stadium is fast approaching.

While the game doesn’t seem to have the same luster of year’s past, this couldn’t be a more important game for head coach Ed Orgeron. LSU sits at 3-3 (1-2) and desperately needing a win as their gauntlet stretch of ranked opponents continues.

Following the Florida matchup, Ole Miss, Alabama, Arkansas, and Texas A&M all get their shot to disappoint the Tigers. Each team is currently ranked in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll as we head into week seven.

The Bayou Bengals limp into this game without Derek Stingley Jr, Andre Anthony, Eli Ricks, Ali Gaye, Joseph Evans, Major Burns, Kayshon Boutte, John Emery Jr, the list goes on. This is the biggest test for Coach O, can he find a way to pull off a victory when everyone has counted them out?

We give our predictions as well as look at who the experts have in this SEC showdown in the early Saturday window.
