When LSU opens up Tiger Stadium against McNeese State (7:00 P.M., ESPN+/SEC Network+) they’ll be doing so without at least five players for various reasons.
Both starting left tackle Cam Wire and right tackle Austin Deculus will miss Saturday’s game against the Cowboys. Both players were injured during Saturday’s loss against UCLA though Deculus later returned. Expect Charles Turner to man one of those spots and possibly true freshman Garrett Dellinger to assume the other.
LSU is also banged up along the defensive line, as pass rusher Ali Gaye will be out due to injury as well.
