LSU and Alabama prepare for Week 10 rivalry matchup

The LSU Tigers are set to host the Alabama Crimson Tide in a critical Week 10 matchup. The game is scheduled for a 2:30 PM CT kickoff, marking the first afternoon kickoff for Alabama at Baton Rouge since 2010. LSU head coach Lane Kiffin expressed surprise at the scheduling, noting that the game has historically been played at night in Death Valley.

Both teams enter the contest dealing with injuries to key players. For LSU, linebacker Davhon Keys has become a central figure in the run defense, and tight end Trey'Dez Green has recently returned to the lineup following a knee injury. Alabama seeks to maintain its winning streak against LSU, having won the last three meetings between the programs.
