The Series: Tennessee leads 20-7-3

LSU and Tennessee meet for the 31st time on Saturday with the Vols holding a 20-7-3 advantage in the series that dates back to the 1925 season … LSU has won two straight and three of the last four games the Vols, including a 21-14 victory in the 2007 SEC Championship Game – the last time the teams played … The last two times the teams have played in Tiger Stadium the game has gone to overtime … Tennessee won 30-27 in a Monday night overtime game in 2005 … Prior to that, LSU beat the Vols, 38-31, in overtime in 2000 … LSU is 3-8-2 all-time against Tennessee in Tiger Stadium … Since the start of the 2000 season, LSU is 4-2 against Tennessee … LSU coach Les Miles is 2-1 against Tennessee … No coach in LSU history has three wins against Tennessee – Miles and Nick Saban both have two wins against the Vols as head coach of the Tigers.

LSU defensive coordinator John Chavis held the same position at Tennessee for 14 years from 1995-2008 … Chavis, who spent a total of 20 years with the Vols, coached linebackers and the defensive line at Tennessee from 1989-1994 before being promoted to defensive coordinator for the 1995 season … LSU running backs coach Frank Wilson coached the wide receivers at Tennessee in 2009 … LSU administrative intern Dominque Stevenson started at middle linebacker for Chavis and the Vols from 1999-2001 … Tennessee coach Derek Dooley spent five years at LSU on Nick Saban’s staff from 2000-04 … Dooley coached tight ends, special teams and running backs during his time with the Tigers … Tennessee defensive backs coach Terry Joseph was a graduate assistant on Les Miles’ staff in 2006 … Tennessee linebackers coach Lance Thompson coached at LSU for two years in 2002 and 2003.

The last three times the teams have met, a fourth quarter or overtime score has determined the outcome. In 2006, LSU scored with 9 seconds left to beat the Vols, 28-24, in Knoxville. In that contest, JaMarcus Russell connected with Early Doucet in the back of the endzone for the score to complete the comeback. A year later at the SEC Championship Game in Atlanta, LSU CB Jonathan Zenon returned an interception 18 yards for a touchdown at the 9:54 mark in the fourth quarter to give the Tigers the lead for good at 21-14. LSU LB Darry Beckwith intercepted a Tennessee pass at the Tiger 7-yard line with less than three minutes left to secure the victory that sent LSU to the national championship game that year. In 2005, Tennessee scored 17 fourth quarter points and then added a TD in overtime to beat LSU, 30-27, in what was Les Miles’ first game in Tiger Stadium.
