Predictions: Our predictions for who will win the game.

It’s that time of year again! The time when the leaves start to change colors, the weather gets cooler and, most importantly, college football season is in Full Swing And what better way to kick off the season than with a rivalry game? This Saturday, the Tennessee Volunteers will take on the Louisiana State University Tigers in Baton Rouge This will be the 102nd meeting between these two teams, making it the 8th most played rivalry in college football history. In honor of this historic meeting, we’ve decided to make some predictions for who will win the game.

The Tigers are coming into the game as the favorites, but we think the Volunteers have a good chance of coming out on top. Here’s why:

-The Volunteers have a new Head Coach Jeremy Pruitt, who is known for his defensive coaching abilities. He was previously the defensive coordinator for Alabama, Florida State and Georgia, so he knows a thing or two about winning big games.
-Pruitt is also bringing in a new offensive coordinator, Tyson Helton. Helton was previously at Western Kentucky where he helped lead the team to an 8-4 record last season.
– LSU is dealing with some injuries going into Saturday’s game. Quarterback Myles Brennan is out with a hand injury and wide receiver Justin Jefferson is questionable with an ankle injury.
-The Volunteers have a strong running game with running backs John Kelly and Ty Chandler. They combined for over 1,600 yards rushing and 19 touchdowns last season.

Of course, it’s always hard to predict how a rivalry game will go – anything can happen on any given day. But we think the Vols have a good chance of coming out on top this Saturday.

Final Thoughts: A few final thoughts on the game.

It is difficult to say who will win this game. Both teams are strong and have good players. However, LSU seems to have the edge in terms of experience. They have been to the College World Series several times in recent years and their coach, Paul Mainieri, is one of the best in the business. Additionally, LSU has a Number of players who have been drafted by Major League Baseball teams, which is a testament to their talent.

That being said, Tennessee does have some advantages of its own. The team is young and hungry, and they proved earlier in the season that they can compete with anyone by taking two out of three games against then-No. 1 Florida. Tennessee also has a good pitcher in Gavin Gibson, who will be starting the game for the Vols.

It should be a close game but LSU is probably slightly favored to win.
