Saturday is the first opportunity for the LSU football team to put their recent humiliation behind them, so this is a far bigger game than we all expected when the schedule came out. That said, yes, this is a big one, and it is important for LSU to stop the bleeding and win fairly comfortably.
Vanderbilt seems like a great opportunity to do that, but they took Texas A&M to the mat last weekend. Offensively, they looked downright awful, but there are reasons to be concerned about their defense, especially considering how poorly LSU protected the passer against Mississippi State.
