The No. 7 Florida Gators (6-0, 3-0 SEC) are set to take on long-time rival, the No. 5 LSU Tigers (5-0, 1-0 SEC), tonight in Death Valley at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

The highly anticipated game marks Florida's second straight top 10 matchup, following their 24-13 home victory over the previously seventh-ranked Auburn Tigers last Saturday. Florida head coach Dan Mullen now holds a 3-1 record against Top 10 teams since taking the job.

Will Florida's elite defense be able to slow Joe Burrow's roll? Can Kyle Trask limit fumbles in the pocket and move the ball against LSU's talented secondary? Is another Gators receiver poised for a big game?

Here is all of the information you need to know ahead of kickoff.
