LSU has flipped the switch on offense in the second half against Mississippi, and for that, the Tigers have positioned themselves with the opportunity to hand Lane Kiffin a win in his return to Oxford.
The Tigers appear to have lost a key weapon for Sam Leavitt in the comeback attempt.
Tigers' starting tight end Trey'Dez Green went down with a lower-body injury in the fourth quarter after taking a pair of low hits from a pair of Ole Miss defenders.
LSU is currently tied with Ole Miss at 24-24 in the fourth quarter after a 23-yard field goal from Scott Starzyk. A win for the Tigers would hand Ole Miss its second loss at home since 2023 and Kiffin's second win against
an AP top-10-ranked opponent on the road in his coaching career.
