This year’s iteration of the interdivisional rivalry between Florida and LSU will take place under the lights at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
On Monday, LSU announced that its Week 7 contest in Gainesville on Oct. 15 against the Gators will kick off at 6 p.m. CT in Gainesville. The Tigers are looking for their fourth-straight win against UF, with the last two coming in wild fashion between the Marco Wilson cleat-toss and last year’s 49-42 shootout.
It will be a matchup between first-year head coaches in [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] and Billy Napier, whose team currently sits at 3-2 but has started SEC play at 0-2 with losses to Kentucky and Tennessee. Napier, who previously coached at Louisiana, will hope to get his first league win on Saturday at home against Missouri.

Meanwhile, LSU hosts No. 8 Tennessee this weekend and will look to score a signature win early in the Kelly era.
