Tigers Score 13 Unanswered To Put Away No. 25 Mississippi State on Thursday, 19-6 LSU’s defense held Mississippi State to nearly 400 yards below its season average as the third-ranked Tigers used a methodical offensive effort to post a 19-6 Thursday night win over the Bulldogs in Starkville. LSU never trailed in the contest, taking a 3-0 lead midway through the first quarter on a 21-yard Drew Alleman field goal. Mississippi State tied the game at 3-3 on its next possession before another Alleman field goal just before halftime gave the Tigers a 6-3 lead at the break. The Bulldogs tied the game at 6-6 late in the third quarter, before the Tigers closed the game with 13 unanswered points for the victory. First, Alleman broke the tie with a 41-yard field goal with 1:46 left in the third quarter and then Jarrett Lee connected with Rueben Randle on a 19-yard TD pass at the 11:56 mark in the fourth quarter to put the Tigers up by 10 at 16-6. Alleman closed the scoring with another field goal at the 2:53 mark. For the game, LSU’s defense recorded 15 tackles for losses and five sacks in holding the Bulldogs to just 52 rushing yards and 193 total yards. On 11 possessions, LSU’s defense forced a 3-and-out or a turnover seven times. Offensively, Lee completed 21-of-27 passes for 213 yards and one score, while Spencer Ware rushed for 107 yards to lead the Tigers rushing attack. LSU finished with 361 yards of total offense (148 rushing, 213 passing) as the Tigers had nearly 38 minutes of possession time.
