LSU Vs. Mississippi: Tigers Take Back Lead Behind Passing Game

In today’s episode of Will Wonders Never Cease, LSU’s offense looked good for an entire touchdown drive.

The Bayou Bengals overcame an early holding penalty thanks to a couple of big plays from Jordan Jefferson to Reuben Randle and Chase Clement, then got a touchdown on a gutty Jefferson run up the middle.

The two-point conversion afterward was a nice return to typical dysfunction, however: a reverse to Terrance Toliver lost yardage, leaving the Rebels less than a touchdown back at 29-24.

The 29 points is the second-most LSU has rolled up against an SEC defense this season. (LSU beat Florida 33-29.) But more impressively, this may be one of Jordan Jefferson’s finest games as a Tiger: he’s 10 of 14 for 200 yards, despite an interception, and has been effective as a runner. Unsurprisingly, this is one of the better days the LSU offense has had in a long while.

Now, it’s the defense’s turn to step up.
