Despite replacing countless starters and coaches from last year’s championship squad, the 2020 LSU Tigers picked up right where the 2019 team left off.
LSU routed the UTSA Roadrunners 62-10 in front of 100,849 fans packed in to Tiger Stadium to see a championship banner raised and an ass-kicking of a football game.
Myles Brennan completed 21 of 28 passes for 264 yards and three scores. It will take a few more games for the public to crown him a worthy successor to Joe Burrow, but he made the throws necessary.
“We’ve known since January when Joe walked off that Superdome field that Myles was the next man up,” coach Ed Orgeron said in his postgame press conference.
