late TD by Ole Piss given up by the Tiger's 2nd/3rd strings
CLK won't have them in for this game. He'll be trying to lay 100 on Ole Piss for the way they've vilified him.

Lane has an ego. You know he really, really, really wants this game
Would not surprise me if he started gameplanning for this game on the plane ride to baton rouge

I feel less confident this week than I felt against Clemson. I thought Clemson had no chance and I was right.
Key to this game will be offensive production. Can we start slow against a supercharged crowd and overcome it? Will line play improve enough to give Leavitt time to throw and set up our run game? If those two are answered in the affirmative Saturday, LSU looks great.
I expect Chambliss / Lacy to make plays. As good as our defense is, I expect them to have some sort of production. The question with OM is if they can temper their emotions and play sound football. They are still a good team, albeit different, than last year. If LSU punches them in the mouth early, what does that look like? Emotional football often leads to mistakes, but it also can lead to great play at times as well.
With all of that being said, LSU withstands a sloppy first half. After going into the locker room down 10-7, they storm back in the 3rd and 4th quarter holding OM to only 10 while scoring 17 with the last touchdown coming within the last 5 minutes of play to win 31-20.
ETA: Math was wrong

Defense travels. And we might have the best one in the country.
I hate hyperbole and rash judgments, but this defense has been tremendous thus far. On the whole, I think this is the best personnel Baker has had at LSU...by a mile.
In 2024 he had Weeks and Swinson who were impact players. But beyond that, it was a lot of average to below average players. The secondary had Gilbert, Burns, Ryan.
Last year LSU had a good secondary, but the front 7 was very, very average. Particularly without Weeks. No DE had more than 2 sacks all season. This year Princewill already has 5 and Ross has 1.5. And that is just the edge. For the first time Baker has two alphas at LB. Go watch Matt Flynn's show where he breaks down film. He gushes over Dottery...and he's next to a pretty good LB in Weeks.
The secondary doesn't have someone as good as Delane, but Pickett may not be that far off. Benefield is probably a better overall safety than Haulcy...who was really good (that's because Benefiled can cover man-to-man while also supporting the run).
So yes, Baker has struggled with running QBs (including Chambliss to some degree last season). But he's also never had this type of personnel. Clemson and La Tech may not be great teams, but they couldn't do anything against LSU. If LSU's offense doesn't give Clemson the ball at the LSU 33, Clemson doesn't score a point on the 1st team defense. Hell, they could not even get first downs. Clemson had ONE drive in the first half where they ran more than 3 plays...out of eight possessions. It took
Clemson until midway through the 3rd quarter to get their second first down.
Tech fared no better. They didn't get a first down until midway through the 3rd...and that was by way of a questionable PI call against LSU. The first time Tech got a non-penalty 1st down was in the 4th quarter...when LSU had taken many of its starters out.
With Kiffin at HC the discussion will always be about offense. But I'm not sure the rest of the country fully realizes how ridiculously good this defense has been. I fully expect OM to have more success than Clemson or Tech. But I don't think they have anywhere close to the same success they had against LSU last season. If that is the case I trust Lane to find enough offense to win.

Never wanted us to put 100 on a team more than this week

41-27 - I think we put 40+ up, but Ole Miss will move the ball against our Defense. I don't think they will score more than 24-27 points however.
