Key Storylines To The Game

--The main question line for LSU is at quarterback as Anthony Jennings or Brandon Harris will look to guide the team to a successful season. With uncertainty at the most important position in the sport, it remains to be seen how the Tigers will hold up.
--Thought quarterback could be a weakness for LSU, it boasts a strong defense and a possible Heisman Trophy winner in running back Leonard Fournette.
--Signal caller isn't a problem for Mississippi State as Dak Prescott is one of the SEC's most reliable players under center. The Bulldogs also boasts a solid defense and are coming in of of a season where they won 10 games for the first time in 15 years.
