LSU linebacker Jacob Phillips leads the Tigers in tackles with 64 and ties for third in the SEC averaging eight stops a game.

With Michael Divinity no longer on the team, Phillips will have to play an even larger role on Dave Aranda’s unit on Saturday when the No. 2-ranked Tigers (8-0, 4-0 SEC) face off against the No. 3-ranked Crimson Tide (8-0, 5-0 SEC) in Tuscaloosa at 2:30 p.m. CT.
