The No. 5 LSU Tigers (7-0, 4-0) defeated the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (6-2, 4-0), 48-20, on Saturday night in Baton Rouge.
While much of the focus was on running back Leonard Fournette—and rightfully so—sophomore quarterback Brandon Harris passed for 286 yards and three scores. It was the third straight solid start for Harris, and he has yet to throw an interception in 2015.
The Tigers are off next week before traveling to Alabama on November 7 to face the Crimson Tide.
