Challenges for LSU
Jaxson Dart is a quarterback who can put up big numbers. He’s completed 217 passes in 352 attempts 1,488 yards, 11 touchdowns, and six interceptions. However, the Ole Miss offense is not a one-dimensional team. The Rebels have actually relied more on the running game than passing this season. They have three different players that have each run for over 350 yards. Quinshon Judkins (720 yards) is the team’s leading rusher. Zach Evans (605 yards) and Jaxson Dart (371 yards) are the other two top ground gainers. LSU must have a solid plan to deal with the Rebel’s double-threat, pick-your-poison offense.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the CBS Network.
