No. 7 LSU has cruised through the first two games of the Lane Kiffin era. Now comes the first true test.

The Tigers will hit the road for the first time this season Saturday night for a top-10 showdown against No. 8 Ole Miss, opening SEC play at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium while putting Kiffin across the field from his former program for the first time.

LSU and Ole Miss will kick off at 6:30 p.m. CT in the first meeting between the rivals as top-10 teams in the AP poll since 1962.
