The LSU Tigers (7-4) will host the Oklahoma Sooners (6-5) on Saturday, November 30, 2024, at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with kickoff scheduled for 6 p.m. CT. LSU aims to conclude its regular season on a high note, following a 24-17 victory over Vanderbilt. The Tigers’ offense has been inconsistent, particularly in generating explosive rushing plays, ranking outside the top 100 nationally in that category. This could pose a challenge against an Oklahoma defense that leads the nation in preventing big runs.
Oklahoma enters the matchup with renewed confidence after a commanding 24-3 upset over then-No. 7 Alabama, a win that secured bowl eligibility for the Sooners. The Sooners’ defense was particularly impressive, holding Alabama to just three points, a season low for the Crimson Tide. Offensively, Oklahoma has struggled with consistency, but the recent performance against a top-tier opponent suggests potential for a strong finish to the regular season. This game will test LSU’s ability to produce big plays against a stout defense and determine if Oklahoma can maintain its defensive prowess on the road.
