No. 10 LSU Visits No. 17 Vanderbilt in SEC Test of Offense vs. Defense

Vanderbilt enters with a top-scoring offense led by dual-threat Diego Pavia, whom LSU vows to limit on the ground.

Overview

  • Both teams are 5-1 entering Saturday's game in Nashville, with No. 10 LSU facing No. 17 Vanderbilt.
  • Vanderbilt ranks fifth in the SEC in total offense and second in scoring, powered by Diego Pavia's efficient passing and dangerous rushing.
  • LSU counters with a defense ranked third in SEC scoring defense and sixth in total yards allowed after a 20-10 win over South Carolina.
  • Brian Kelly says the Tigers will aim to make Pavia one-dimensional by containing his runs and forcing more throws.
  • Quarterback Garrett Nussmeier is expected to be the healthiest he has been this season, and markets have installed Vanderbilt as the favorite in a matchup with postseason stakes.
