The top-ranked LSU can’t rest on its laurels after the big win over Bama, hitting the road this week to take on a 4-6 Ole Miss team desperate for a marquee win and a chance to set up an Egg Bowl showdown with Mississippi State for bowl eligibility.
It may feel like LSU’s climbed the mountaintop, but there’s still three games left to this regular season. And while all three are very winnable, they’re still conference games and this is a sport built on much crazier upsets.
Plus, the Tigers are likely to be down three offensive linemen — including both starting tackles — with defensive players gimpy as well.
