Vanderbilt vs LSU Prediction

I’ll probably just stick with LSU. The Tigers need to get over their stunner loss to Florida quickly, though. LSU mustered 392 yards (262 passing) and 25 first downs in that one but maintained a tepid 4.3 yards per play and allowed seven sacks. The Tigers have hit the skids in some tough matchups over three straight losses, scoring fewer than 17 points in each of the last two.

Over on the Vanderbilt side, they mustered a tepid 274 yards (108 rushing) and 4.6 yards per play in their latest loss to South Carolina. The Commodores gave up 452 yards (214 rushing), 7.2 yards per play, 25 first downs, and a 9-of-12 success rate on third-down conversions on the other side. Vanderbilt has just 24 combined points over their last two games, and they’re probably going to have major issues scoring here as well.
