LSU vs. Wisconsin is a matchup that can be encapsulated in one word: Fun.
They’re two fanbases without much bad blood between them that have seen each other fairly recently, having had a “neutral” series in 2014 and 2016 in Houston and Green Bay. As the two teams gear up to play in the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa, the vibe shouldn’t be much different.
LSU will be without Heisman-winning quarterback Jayden Daniels for the matchup, and offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock went to Notre Dame to join Marcus Freeman’s staff (his second stint with the Irish). The Tigers, however, could see some history on New Year’s Day if Malik Nabers notches 22 yards, as he chases LSU’s career receiving record.
The Tigers upended Purdue in last year’s Citrus Bowl in Brian Kelly’s first season with LSU, routing the Boilermakers 63-7. This year LSU (9-3, 6-2 SEC) will play Wisconsin (7-5, 5-4 Big Ten) in another clash between two of college football’s premiere conferences.
