We're just about an hour away from kickoff in the massive top15 matchup between LSU and Ole Miss. The Tigers desperately need to win this game to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive as do the Rebels.

When the Tigers offense takes the field it will be without a few key pieces on the outside which could impact this game. We learned that Kyle Parker was out for the season on Thursday night which hurts LSU as he was an effective deep threat.

The loss of Kyle Parker wouldn't have been a big deal if it weren't for the other injuries at wide receiver. The Tigers will also be without key starter CJ Daniels who transferred in at wide receiver from Liberty. Daniels has started every game this season and while he hasn't had the impact many would have hoped for, he was starting to hit his groove.

The Tigers were already shorthanded at wide receiver as Chris Hilton Jr has yet to debut for LSU this season. LSU won't get Daniels on the field this weekend either as he continues to recover from a foot injury he suffered this summer.

West Weeks went from questionable to probable which means he should be available for the Tigers defense.

On the other side of this matchup, the Ole Miss Rebels will be much healthier than the Tigers. Wide Receiver Tre Harris will give it a go which is massive for Ole Miss as he's been the best receiver in the Country this season. Defensive Tackle JJ Pegues and Edge Rusher Princely Umanmielen will both be game-time decisions but, they both should be available.
