Game Recap
LSU never trailed in their commanding 34-10 victory over Arkansas at a packed Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium. The Tigers came out roaring, with Caden Durham breaking multiple tackles for a 22-yard touchdown run in the opening drive. LSU's balanced attack, featuring 393 total yards and stifling defense, dominated the Razorbacks, who mustered just 38 rushing yards. Garrett Nussmeier orchestrated the offense flawlessly, completing passes to nine different receivers. Damian Ramos extended the lead with precise field goal kicking, while Whit Weeks' critical interception set up a pivotal touchdown in the third quarter.
Arkansas struggled to find their footing, scoring only once on a 25-yard pass from Taylen Green and failing to capitalize after closing the deficit in the third quarter. Green's interception returned by Weeks, coupled with Durham's third touchdown, firmly put LSU in control. The Tiger defense effectively neutralized the Razorback offense, limiting them to 277 total yards. Despite earlier hopeful expectations, Arkansas was stymied by LSU's unyielding pressure, paving the way for the Tigers to solidify their position as SEC contenders.
