Live stream and how to watch Missouri (2-2) at LSU (2-2) on television and online on Saturday, Oct. 1.
With both Tigers teams sitting on 2-2 records, and LSU reeling from the dismissal of beloved coach Les Miles this past week, this Missouri vs LSU matchup is bound to have some bounce.
The entire LSU team has been dealing with change this week. Les Miles was dismissed and Ed Orgeron takes his place, bringing with him a plan to get the Tigers moving the ball down the field and scoring some much needed points.
Steve Ensminger steps in for fired offensive coordinator Cam Cameron. The hope is that a combination of a fresh coaching philosophy and playing style, along with home field advantage, will give some much-needed energy to the sluggish Tigers.
Missouri is sitting pretty with quarterback Drew Lock, who so far this season has collected 14 touchdowns with 1,508 yards and only two interceptions. Missouri needs this win against LSU to give them their first Power Five win of the season.
At this point it’s unclear whether previously suspended defensive tackle Davon Godchaux will play this weekend, and LSU running back Leonard Fourette’s ability to play on Saturday is still a game day decision. With so much up in the air for LSU, this may provide the opening Missouri needs to get ahead.
