OXFORD, Miss. - It is a battle for the Magnolia Bowl trophy on Saturday afternoon as the undefeated LSU Tigers face the undefeated Ole Miss Rebels.

The two began their first drives with three-and-out possessions, but LSU was able to gain the lead off a 50-yard catch and run from Zavion Thomas into a 7-yard touchdown that deflected off of tight end Trey'Dez Green's hands into wide receiver Nic Anderson's.

Ole Miss drove down the field but settled for a field goal in the red zone. On the following drive, LSU approached the red zone before quarterback Garrett Nussmeier threw an interception.

The home team has won 11 of the past 13 meetings between the Tigers and Rebels.

LSU and Ole Miss clash at 2:30 pm in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, airing live on WBRZ.
