In a matchup that always delivers, No. 4 LSU will square off against Lane Kiffin and the No. 13 ranked Ole Miss Rebels on Saturday afternoon at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium.

The Top-15 Southeastern Conference showdown has stolen headlines all week with game day finally arriving in the Magnolia State with both programs looking to make a statement in Week 5.

The Bayou Bengals' defense spearheaded by coordinator Blake Baker versus Kiffin's offensive mastermind has remained a significant storyline heading into Saturday with a true strength versus strength set to take place.

“I think we’re at that point that we know each other very well," Kelly said. "I mean, this is the fourth time we’ve played against each other. Blake’s done it when he was at Missouri too. So, there’s no tricks really. It’s not like, oh, I never saw that coming.

“When you get down to it, it’s the team that really is executing at the highest level and doing the little things the right way. They’re going to get theirs. There’s no question that’s that’s a great offense.

"But I think that’s played a little bit too much, cause they know each other so well and they know what to expect. And both of them, on offense and defense, know how to make the appropriate adjustments.”

Now, with kickoff inching closer in Oxford, Vegas has revealed the betting lines ahead of the Week 5 clash where LSU will come in as the underdogs.
