The weekend’s second top-10 matchup between SEC opponents will come Saturday night at Tiger Stadium, when No. 8 Florida (6-0, 4-0 SEC) visits No. 6 LSU (5-0, 3-0).
Let’s examine some key factors in Saturday’s showdown:
Key to LSU offense: Florida coach Jim McElwain joked that Leonard Fournette might think he could run for 300 yards against the Gators if he saw the way Florida’s defense tackled Tennessee’s Jalen Hurd. Indeed, 79 of Hurd’s 102 yards in that game came after contact -- and it should be clear by now that Fournette is not easy to bring down single-handedly.
