FAYETTEVILLE — A change of venue from the desert to the bayou has done LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels a load of good.
Daniels has transformed his game from a sub-par showing in 2021 to Heisman Trophy candidacy in a nine-game span heading into Saturday’s 11 a.m. Battle for the Golden Boot against the University of Arkansas.
The Tigers (7-2, 5-1 SEC) have taken the driver’s seat in the race for the SEC West title following last week’s 32-31 overtime win against Alabama, in large part due to Daniels’ dual-threat prowess.
The 6-3, 200-pounder has 1,994 passing yards on 69.
