This isn't a bye week for everybody. LSU will hold a second "Tiger Bowl" scrimmage Thursday between walk-ons and freshmen, giving some of those players more game-like action than they experienced yet this season, coach Ed Orgeron said.
The first one was last season, when Orgeron was an interim coach three games into his tenure.
But with 20 of the 22 players in the 2017 LSU signing class having played in real games, many of those players will also be featured in the scrimmage.
"A lot of these guys, like Jacob Phillips and Tyler Taylor, they'll be playing," Orgeron said.
