Week 3 was no exception to Molly’s ability to steal the show with her sense of style. When she arrived on the set for Saturday’s college football games, her outfit immediately had fans going all over her.

In a recent post on IG, she shared her week 3 college football game day outfit with a caption, “Nothing like a night game in Death Valley 💥.” She was dressed in a simple white sleeveless minidress that was the perfect combo of elegance and comfort. With its fitted silhouette, the subtle peplum detail around the waist, and striking gold buttons down the front, the dress was classy. Molly’s look felt polished yet approachable, paired with her signature loose waves and minimal jewelry.

While Molly McGrath was effortlessly stealing the spotlight from the sidelines, the real fireworks were taking place on the field in Baton Rouge. Thanks to a lockdown defense that recorded five interceptions and kept the Gators’ offense guessing all day, LSU was able to defeat Florida 20–10. With only one touchdown on a 23-yard pass from Garrett Nussmeier to Zavion Thomas, the Tigers’ offense didn’t exactly light up the scoreboard. But Dashawn Spears’ 58-yard interception return for a touchdown added a highlight-reel moment.
