The Tigers are 4-1 on the season and winners of four straight after dropping the season opener against Florida State in New Orleans. LSU is coming off an emotional an hard fought win at Auburn where the Bayou Bengals overcame a 17-0 first half lead by scoring the game’s final 21 points.

More From RTI: Four-Star Receiver Announces Commitment Date

LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels exited the win over Auburn in the fourth quarter with a knee injury and did not return as the Tigers held on to beat Auburn. First year coach Brin Kelly said there was no structural damage in Daniels’ knee and that he believed the quarterback would be “okay”.

The Arizona State transfer quarterback has been very effective on the ground this season and even if Daniels plays the knee injury could limit his rushing ability.

Tennessee has injury concerns as well, most notably All-SEC receiver Cedric Tillman who continues to recover from an ankle injury he suffered against Akron.

Kick off from Tiger Stadium is at noon ET. ESPN will broadcast the game.
