Game day is here: LSU vs. Ole Miss

You can here the chants already:

"Go to hell, Ole Miss!"

"Go to hell, LSU!"

One of the south's most special football rivalries is renewed Saturday as the Tigers (5-2, 3-1 SEC) host the No. 7-ranked Rebels (7-0, 3-0) in Tiger Stadium. The game is set for 2:30 p.m. on CBS.

Based on Ole Miss' ranking, it would seem an upset is order if LSU is to get the win. But the Tigers go into Saturday as a slight 1.5-point favorite according to Caesars. LSU has had a history of playing spoiler in situations such as this, as you will find out in my column here.
