The LSU Tigers (5-4, 2-4 SEC) enter the final stretch of the 2025 season on Saturday with an SEC matchup against the Arkansas Razorbacks up next on the docket.

With three games remaining against Arkansas, Western Kentucky, and Oklahoma, the Bayou Bengals have officially reached the last leg of a chaotic year in Baton Rouge.

Interim coach Frank Wilson will look to earn his first win as the decision-maker after falling to the Alabama Crimson Tide last Saturday in his debut with an opportunity to snap a three-game losing skid for the program.

Arkansas dual-threat quarterback Taylen Green will lead the charge on Saturday morning with the Tigers preparing for a significant challenge against the Razorbacks' offense.

"He's 6'6, athletic, and he's a legit 4.40 guy. It almost at times looks like he's gliding because of his stride. He's a good player," Wilson said. "They're prolific, in my opinion, the eighth-ranked offense in the country. They can score.

"They've been behind against opponents and rallied back because of his unique skill set to both run and throw the ball. They were averaging 35 points a game. They can rush the ball from the quarterback position by design; they can hand it off as well, and they have some receivers that can make plays for him."

As game day inches closer in Baton Rouge, Vegas has virtually locked in a pick with the oddsmakers setting the line in favor of the home team.

Frank Wilson's Thoughts:

"They're certainly formidable from that aspect, which makes them extremely dangerous. You watch them against Ole Miss; you watch Mississippi State, on and on and on. They're in games where they could easily have two or three more wins that they did not.

"They always play us tough, always have. So we're expecting to get their very best. We'll have to score touchdowns in this game; that'll have to happen. That's a non-negotiable because they can score. I think he's a very talented player."
