Tennessee has been a juggernaut thus far this season and ranks third in the nation in scoring, averaging over 48 points per game, and boasts one of the most electrifying quarterbacks in the nation with Hendon Hooker under center.
On the flip side, we have an LSU defense that ranks 15th in the nation and 25th against the pass. But the issue with the Tigers is that they are a running team first and a passing team second. If the Volunteers begin striking early and often through the air, LSU won’t be able to play catch up on the ground.
Tennessee has had an extra week to prepare for this game and they will be well-rested as they take on the Tigers in this spot. They also have a solid run-stop unit that will give the Tigers problems when running the ball. LSU is 1-5 in their last six October games to add even more fuel to our opinion on Tennessee. Let’s lay the small number on the road chalk and cash a ticket.
