NEW ORLEANS — The good news is BYU will not face a running back like Derrius Guice again this season. The bad news it is may not have mattered Saturday night in the Superdome because No 13 LSU was too good for these Cougars that wandered into SEC territory without Kevlar vests.
LSU 27, BYU 0.
LSU’s defense, missing nine starters from a squad that allowed just 16 touchdowns a year ago, was fast enough, talented enough and mean enough to intimidate Tanner Mangum and his band of new receivers and running backs into a punchless performance heading into a rivalry game with Utah next Saturday at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
