BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — It took ninth-ranked LSU nearly half the season to look comfortable on offense.
The timing couldn’t be worse for McNeese State head coach Matt Viator, who figures his battered Cowboys (2-3) would have had a tough time with LSU (6-0) even if the Tigers’ offense was still struggling to move the ball.
Viator says LSU’s defense, which ranks among the best in the nation, is doing things he’s never seen before.
Now the Cowboys head to Tiger Stadium for the first time to take on an unbeaten LSU team coming off its most impressive victory of the season at Florida last weekend.
The Tigers have been moving the ball better with a two-quarterback system, which coach Les Miles says will remain in place as long as it’s working.
