Garrett Nussmeier threw a 25-yard touchdown pass to Kyren Lacy on the second possession of overtime to give No. 13 LSU a 29-26 victory over No. 9 Ole Miss on Saturday night in Baton Rouge, La.

Nussmeier, who passed for 337 yards, threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Aaron Anderson with 27 seconds left in the fourth quarter to force overtime.

The Rebels (5-2, 1-2 Southeastern Conference) committed two penalties on the first possession of overtime before Caden Davis kicked a 57-yard field goal, giving the Tigers (5-1, 2-0) an opportunity to take their first lead of the game.

Jaxson Dart passed for 284 yards, a touchdown and a pick, Tre Harris caught seven passes for 102 yards and a score and Cayden Lee had nine catches for 132 yards for Ole Miss.

Nussmeier converted a fourth-and-6 from the Tigers 29 with a 14-yard completion to Mason Taylor with two minutes remaining in regulation. Nussmeier and Taylor connected again for completions of 19 and 10 yards before the game-tying touchdown.

Davis’ 35-yard field goal with 4:41 to go in the third quarter pushed the Rebels’ lead to 20-13 before Damian Ramos made a 41-yarder to get LSU within 20-16 by the end of the period. A 37-yard field goal by Davis increased the Ole Miss lead to 23-16 with 3:14 remaining in the fourth quarter.

Davis made a 49-yard field goal on the first play of the second quarter to give Ole Miss a 3-0 lead.

On the Rebels’ next possession, it was fourth-and-1 at midfield when Ulysses Bentley IV raced 50 yards for a touchdown and a 10-0 lead.

The Tigers responded right away, as Nussmeier completed 4 of 5 passes for 78 yards, with the final 12 coming on a scoring strike to Trey’Dez Green that trimmed LSU’s deficit to 10-7.

Dart threw a 15-yard touchdown pass to Harris to increase Ole Miss’ lead to 17-7 before Ramos kicked a 33-yard field goal. Ramos later added a 45-yarder that got the Tigers within 17-13 by halftime.
