For the fifth straight season, LSU will begin a football season 0-1.
#13 LSU lost the best game of week one as the #23 USC Trojans scored the game winning touchdown with eight seconds remaining in the game to pull ahead of the Tigers 27-20.
LSU had a near perfect first drive as the Tigers marched down the field to inside USC’s 10 yard line. Garrett Nussmeier was 7-9 on the opening drive, but one incomplete pass led Kyren Lacy just a little too far out of bounds in the end zone, and the other came on 4th and goal.
