No. 4 LSU and No. 13 Ole Miss are in the afternoon slot on ABC in what has turned into one of the biggest weekend’s of the college football season.

For the first time since 1959, LSU (4-0) and Ole Miss (4-0) will meet as unbeaten and untied teams on Saturday afternoon for the Magnolia Bowl at Vaught-Hemmingway Stadium.

Kickoff is set for 2:45 CT on ABC and the LSU Sports Radio Network. ESPN’s Sean McDonough, Greg McElroy and Molly McGrath will be on the television broadcast, while Chris Blair, Jacob Hester and Gordy Rush will be on the radio call.

Saturday will also mark the 114th meeting all-time between the Rebels and the Tigers, dating back to 1894. It will be the 13th ranked meeting between the two programs, with LSU leading ranked matchups 8-4. This storied rivalry has delivered no shortage of unforgettable moments over the years, and the last few meetings have been no different, coming down to the last second.

“It’s a rivalry game playing for the Magnolia Bowl trophy,” said head coach Brian Kelly. “This is a game that goes way back, and the last couple of years, it has been decided on the last plays of the game. Ole Miss is an outstanding football team. They have an established winning culture and an offense that has, again, put up incredible numbers.”
