POSTGAME: LSU breezes past Ole Miss, 45-16
We said this matchup would come down to controlling Jordan Ta’amu and bringing the pressure earlier this week. Saturday night’s game illustrated just that. It look LSU a little while to find its pass rush, but when it did, it absolutely dominated.
And by “dominated,” we’re talking an 45-16 Tiger victory over the Rebels.
Ole Miss opened the game with a touchback, starting the action off at its own 25. LSU gained the momentum early, with an interception by Grant Delpit. LSU took over at its own 48, quickly making its way into Rebel territory. The drive would end in a missed 53-yard field goal by Cole Tracy, leaving both teams scoreless with 12:02 remaining in the first quarter.
