LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt is expected to play in Saturday's game at Ole Miss after he was not listed on the SEC availability report, according to reporting by Alex Scarborough of ESPN. The absence of his name from the report signals that the star quarterback is anticipated to participate for the Tigers in Oxford.
The determination came after 48 hours during which the program tracked Leavitt's health and availability. His status had been a focal point for LSU supporters leading into the conference matchup.
For local fans, the news removes a significant layer of uncertainty surrounding the Tigers' offensive plans. Leavitt's presence under center shapes both the game plan and the team's prospects in a road environment at Ole Miss.
The SEC availability report serves as the conference's official mechanism for disclosing player status ahead of game day. When a player is omitted from the list, it indicates no designation that would restrict him from participating.
Kickoff details and further game-day information were not included in the source material. Supporters will continue to monitor official updates as Saturday's contest approaches.
