There’s a lot of weird surrounding this LSU versus Ole Miss game.
For one, it’s being played in September, which should be against some sort of Federal statute. I’d say “it’s being played at 8:15 p.m. local time,” but A) that’s actually correct and B) the 2016 game in Tiger Stadium — our last, best glimpse at the greatness of Leonard Fournette — also kicked that late.
Maybe it’s the lack of juice to the Ed Orgeron angle (he and Ole Miss are 10 years in each other’s rear-view mirrors). Or the general pointlessness surrounding the Rebels given the status of the program as it relates to the NCAA.
