After falling to Alabama a week ago, LSU football looks to rebound against a struggling Arkansas team. Here’s everything you need to know.

LSU was shut out at home in Week 10, 29-0. That has only happened four times in the last 25 years. All four have been against Alabama. To say their egos are bruised would be an understatement, but that won’t get in this teams way of asserting dominance over an Arkansas team that is having a year to forget.

The Razorbacks only have two wins so far this season, yes two. They have lost to teams like North Texas and Colorado State as they struggle to really get anything going consistently on either side of the ball. They aren’t a bad team, but they don’t have what it takes to keep up with LSU.

Here is how you can watch the matchup.

Date: Saturday, Nov. 10
Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
Location: Fayetteville, Ark.
Venue: Razorback Stadium
TV: SEC Network
Live Stream: WatchESPN or FuboTV

Keys to Victory

For Arkansas, they have to find a way to slow down the LSU offense. Oh, and figure out how to score consistently without turning the ball over while facing the defense with the most turnovers this season. Easy peasy right?

For LSU, they need to be sure to not let the disappointment of last week cloud what they need to do this week. They can’t let their bruised ego leave the door open for Arkansas to steal a win on Senior Night and take away their chance at a New Year’s Six berth.

Prediction

Look for LSU to score early and often in this one. Arkansas’ defense doesn’t have enough play makers to make this one a close game, in my opinion. The Tigers will win easily by two touchdowns at the least, even if the Razorbacks are able to sprinkle in scores of their own.

Final Score: LSU 35, Arkansas 10
