LSU airs grievance with Texas

The LSU-Texas rivalry is heating up after the Tigers beat the Longhorns 45-38 in Austin, Texas, on Saturday night when the temperature at kickoff was 98 degrees.

Tigers Coach Ed Orgeron said at his Monday news conference that the air conditioning wasn't on in the visiting locker room at Royal-Memorial Stadium.

Orgeron said LSU was prepared because he had been tipped off by someone on Louisiana Tech's staff that the air conditioning wasn't operating when the Bulldogs opened the season at Texas the previous week.

"I called Louisiana Tech, and they told us about it," Orgeron said.
