GAME PREVIEW: LSU
Aug. 30: No. 13 LSU 28, No. 14 Wisconsin 24
LSU entered the second half in Houston trailing the Badgers by 10 and only made matters worse by
allowing Wisconsin running back Melvin Gordon to scamper 63 yards for a touchdown.
The Tigers responded in strong fashion, rattling off 21 unanswered points largely on the arm of sopho-
more quarterback Anthony Jennings, who finished with two touchdown passes and 239 yards despite
completing only 9 of 21 passes.
Sept. 6: No. 12 LSU 56, Sam Houston State 0
All three of Travin Dural's catches led to scores, and by the third time Jennings connected with the
sophomore wide receiver for a score Sam Houston State trailed 27-0 and hardly stood a chance.
Freshman running back Leonard Fournette added another first-half score, part of his 13 carries for 92
yards. The Tigers defense held the Bearkats to 206 total yards while forcing three turnovers.
Sept. 13: No. 10 LSU 31, Louisiana-Monroe 0
LSU continued its winning ways with a second consecutive shutout, the first back-to-back blankings
by a Tigers defense since 1985. Louisiana-Monroe managed a total of 93 yards, with only 16 coming on
the ground.
Freshman running back Darrel Williams took seven carries for 37 yards and two scores, complementing
Fournette's 10 carries for 52 yards and a touchdown.
