Sam Leavitt injury update: Is LSU QB playing vs. Ole Miss tonight?
Sam Leavitt made a surprising appearance on the SEC availability report this week, with LSU listing the quarterback as doubtful Wednesday. Since Leavitt didn’t appear to get banged up against Louisiana Tech, the validity of his injury began to come into question, with Ole Miss doubting he’d actually miss the game.
It’s a huge game for LSU and particularly coach Lane Kiffin. This is his first game in Oxford since leaving Ole Miss amid their best season in program history in 2025, so Vaught–Hemingway Stadium will be filled with bad blood. The Tigers will certainly need Leavitt, the former Arizona State star and top transfer quarterback, who’s coming off a rough three-interception game against the Bulldogs.
