Ole Miss’ defense has made a considerable leap, and LSU was out of sync for most of the game, especially in the first half. The Tigers punted three times, threw an interception and turned the ball over on downs within their first five possessions. They averaged 5.6 yards per play and struggled to sustain drives, going 6 for 16 on third down.

Garrett Nussmeier threw a tying touchdown pass in the final seconds of regulation and hit Kyren Lacy for a 25-yard scoring strike on No. 13 LSU’s first play of overtime, completing a stunning 29-26 comeback victory over No.
