The Truth: Backs Against the Wall

Ed Orgeron is used to going to Gainesville with his back against the wall.

Rewind to 2017. LSU was 3-2, winless in the SEC, and fresh off a home loss to Troy when Orgeron led the Tigers into The Swamp. 

They came away with a 17-16 win, salvaging the season and setting the tone for a program that would hoist the national championship trophy 818 days later.

A repeat effort would be awfully nice this week. The Tigers are 1-2 for the first time since 1994 and take on a Florida team with a potent offense and a point of its own to prove after a road loss to Texas A&M.
