Ten years ago, an LSU Tigers team welcomed the Ole Miss Rebels into Tiger Stadium, and after that game LSU Head Coach Les Miles dropped one of the coldest post game quotes of all time...

“That was Death Valley. That was the place where opponents’ dreams come to die.”

That day, LSU beat Ole Miss 10-7, as Ole Miss was ranked #3 in the nation and had hopes of winning a National Championship. That ended when the 24th ranked Tigers stopped them in Baton Rouge.

Fast forward to the 2024 version of the game...the #9 Rebs were feeling frisky and looking at a College Football Playoff berth. While the 13th Ranked LSU Tigers were still scrambling to patch up both offensive and defensive units that have been stricken with injuries. Honestly, a lot of fans were losing hope in LSU competing for a College Football Playoff spot. Then Saturday happened.

LSU didn't blow the doors off Ole Miss, they didn't really embarrass them in any way. The game required LSU to push hard to tie the game up at the end of regulation, and play for overtime. Then it took a couple of players throwing an entire program on their backs to make sure LSU won.

In the huddle before LSU took the ball in overtime, Kyren Lacy said he wanted his one-on-one matchup against the defensive back. He wanted the ball. When it was lofted his way, there was no question...he called game. Kyren Lacy killed Ole Miss with one catch...
