LSU vs. West Virginia

The last (and only) time the LSU football team faced West Virginia was Sept. 24, 2010, in Baton Rouge. The Tigers won 20-14 in Baton Rouge in a game in which neither team was effective offensively, as they combined for 407 yards.

Former LSU players and current NFLers Patrick Peterson and Stevan Ridley provided the scoring punch for the Tigers. Peterson returned a punt 60 yards for a touchdown, and Ridley scored on a 1-yard plunge. Ridley ran for 116 yards on 20 carries, and the rest of the team combined for 114 yards.

West Virginia has a 22-19-2 record against the SEC, and LSU has a 2-3 record against teams in the Big East.
