LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt reportedly participated in LSU’s walkthrough practice session today. Leavitt was limited in practice yesterday and landed on LSU’s availability report as doubtful for the Tigers’ trip to Ole Miss.

If Leavitt is at all affected by injury, LSU will need its defense to continue the dominant form its had to start the season. Ole Miss’s backfield of Trinidad Chambliss and Kewan Lacy will be a step up from anything the Tigers have faced so far. Former national champion LSU linebacker Darry Beckwith says he’s less worried about Lacy replicating the success he had last year without Lane Kiffin, and the Tigers should focus on pressuring and containing Chambliss.

Cut 18 (18) “…stopping the run.”

Kickoff between the seventh-ranked Tigers and eighth-ranked Rebels is set for 6:30 Saturday.

Landry Kiffin, the daughter of LSU coach Lane Kiffin, took to TikTok today to speak out against a banner made by Ole Miss students in Oxford that made her the punchline of a vulgar sexual joke. The 21-year-old Ole Miss student has been dating LSU linebacker Whit Weeks since last year, but there have been untrue rumors in Oxford about Landry Kiffin being in a sexual relationship with a player who no longer attends Ole Miss. Kiffin says she hopes people realize there is an actual person behind the jokes they make…

Cut 10 (12) “… mind-blowing to me.”

Saints tight end Juwan Johnson returned to practice today after being sidelined with an illness yesterday. Wide receiver Chris Olave was limited with a hamstring injury, and defensive end Chase Young was limited with a calf issue after neither appeared on yesterday’s injury report. Long snapper Zach Wood is expected to miss four to six weeks with a calf strain. Wood signed with the Saints in 2017 and has not missed a game since.
