Overview
- Kickoff is 7:45 p.m. ET at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, with television coverage on the SEC Network and live streams on Fubo and Sling.
- The Tigers enter 6-4 and already bowl eligible, and a win over the Hilltoppers would lock in a winning season.
- LSU is coming off a 23-22 comeback over Arkansas, its first victory since Brian Kelly was fired on Oct. 26.
- Western Kentucky is 8-2 and has won three straight behind quarterback Rodney Tisdale Jr., who passed for 371 yards and three touchdowns and added a rushing score in last week’s 42-26 win.
- Key WKU threats include running back Marvis Parrish, safety Jaylen Lewis, slot receiver K.D. Hutchinson, and edge rusher Harper Holloman, with the Hilltoppers able to clinch a Conference USA title-game spot next week at Jacksonville State.
