🔼 Shootout In The South. There was not one second of boring football on Saturday night in Oxford. LSU and Ole Miss combined for an LSU record of 1,343 yards of total offense, but the Rebels came out victorious. It was a shootout until the final second. Jayden Daniels threw for 414 yards and ran for 223. He supplied four touchdowns for the fourth-straight game. Brian Thomas was elite once again, providing three touchdowns and 124 yards. Logan Diggs was in control of the running game, shoving in two touchdowns himself. Three Tigers had double-digit tackles — Andre Sam (14), Major Burns (11), and Greg Penn III (10).

🔼  Stole The Show. The women’s cross country team put on a performance at the FSU Invitational! They took first-place in a 35-team field that included No. 8 Florida and No. 28 Florida State. Lorena Rangel-Batres, Michaela Rose, and Ella Chesnut secured a 1-2-3 finish. The men’s team landed in seventh-place in a 31-team field.

🔼 All-Around The World. LSU gymnast Aleah Finnegan is at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championship in Belgium. She’ll start at 10:45am CT this morning on floor in subdivision eight. The top 24 gymnasts from the qualifying events will move on to the individual all-around final on Friday. Coverage is available on allgymnastics.tv.

🔼 Tigers Trample Tigers. The volleyball squad showed out in the SEC home opener against Missouri, beating the other Tigers 3-1. Sanaa Dotson recorded her 1,000th career kill! She also racked up a season-high four blocks. Maddie Waak recorded her fourth double-double of the year with 32 assists and 17 digs.

The Tiger trot continued last night with a 3-1 win over Mississippi State. Sanaa showed out again with a career-high .591 hitting percentage and a season-high 14 kills. Jade Demps earned her third double-double of the year.
