LSU expects wounded Tennessee's best shot

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. - LSU's season high this year for most rushing attempts in a game is 57 in the opener against BYU.

Tennessee ranks last in the 14-team SEC in rushing defense, as well as in scoring offense and total offense.

A steady rain is forecast throughout Saturday's 7 p.m. CT game here in Neyland Stadium between No. 21 LSU and winless-in-the-SEC Tennessee.

Consider those two facts and LSU coach Ed Orgeron's comments earlier in the week on how he loves the physical running style of running back Derrius Guice.

"I think it sends a message of physical football," Orgeron said.
