This weekend, LSU and Arkansas will clash on Saturday Night under the lights of Donald W Reynolds. While there may be some more high-profile games, this game could have a massive effect on the College Football Playoff race and the race for the SEC Championship as LSU is 2-0 in SEC play while Arkansas is 2-1.

To get an idea of how this game may turn out, we simulated a game of EA College Football 25 to see what may happen.

The Tigers started off in an early hole as the Razorbacks got the only touchdown of the first quarter on a Ja'Quinden Jackson four-yard touchdown run. The Razorbacks would stretch their lead to 14 when Taylen Green found Andrew Armstong for a 67 yard touchdown. Aaron Anderson would get LSU right back in it scoring on a 23 yard pass from Garrett Nussmeier before tying the game at half this time on a 50 yard touchdown.

The Razorbacks would strike again in the third quarter scoring on a 20 yard touchdown run from Ja'Quinden Jackson. The lead wouldn't last long as LSU would tie the game on a 2 yard touchdown run from Josh Williams.

Ja'Quinden Jackson's monster game continued in the fourth quarter scoring once again on a 28 yard touchdown run. The Tigers would tie it again this week on a 50-yard touchdown from Aaron Anderson joining Jackson in the hat trick club.

In overtime, LSU would get a stop and would be the benefactors of a missed field goal before the Tigers walked it off on a 31 yard field goal.

Garrett Nussmeier played incredibly in the simulation going 19 for 28 for 347 yards and three touchdowns. Aaron Anderson was dominant for LSU leading the team with a whopping eight catches for 220 yards and three touchdowns. LSU forced one takeaway as Greg Penn III forced a fumble which was recovered by DaShawn Spears.

The simulation matched everyone's expectations for this weekend's rivalry game. No matter the talent level on either side or the teams expectations, this game will be a hard fought battle but, LSU needs to find a way to win.
