When LSU takes on Florida this weekend, the defensive line could get a significant boost with the return of defensive end Rashard Lawrence and defensive tackle Ed Alexander.
Lawrence is the starter at right defensive end while Alexander serves as Greg Gilmore's primary backup at nose tackle. The Tigers are also a week away from getting back defensive end Frank Herron who LSU coach Ed Orgeron says will return against Auburn.
Orgeron also said on Monday that he expects Lawrence and Alexander back for Saturday's game against the Gators.
Herron has missed the entire season, Lawrence didn't play against Chattanooga, Mississippi State or Troy and Alexander was injured against Mississippi State early and didn't play in the last two weeks.
