Saturday’s game against La Tech was one LSU should have won with ease, but that wasn’t so. Still, the Tigers avoided an upset from the Bulldogs, 38-21.
We had talked about LSU and ‘cupcake’ opponents before the game, and the Bulldogs certainly didn’t make this win easy. LSU’s performance had a shakiness to it that echoed that of Week 2’s shutout of Southeastern in certain moments - except worse.
The Bulldogs were first to midfield, after LSU went three-and-out on its first drive of the night. La Tech’s first play on offense was a 33-yard pass from Bulldogs quarterback J’Mar Smith to wide receiver Adrian Hardy.
