Heading into the game against Southern University, the biggest questions regarding LSU revolved around special teams, third down defense and the offensive line. Each of those concerns seemed to be addressed throughout the week, whether it was through lineup changes or better play.

42 yards. If that wasn’t enough, he also ran the ball off a reverse, ultimately breaking away for 41 yards, LSU’s biggest run of the day.“We felt like it was important to get [Boutte] in a good rhythm

Bech wasn’t as involved, but he did have a huge play in the middle of the first. On third down and long, Jayden Daniels thought about scrambling before setting his feet and hitting Bech in the back of the end zone.

The Fixes

When it came time for the Ti gers to receive their first punt, a new returner entered the playing field. Gregory Clayton Jr. would come down with his first punt, much to the relief of LSU fans ev erywhere, before returning it 18 yards and setting LSU up with great field position.

“We talked about a sense of urgency and starting fast,” Kel ly said. “I said it’s going to start with either this kickoff return or kickoff and challenged both those teams that they would essentially set the tone for the game.”

early on,” Kelly said. “We learned in the first game that he’s going to get a lot of off coverage and dou ble zone, and we just need to get the ball out to him quickly and let him make some plays.”

Each of those players should be expected to have huge im pacts on the offense going for ward, though LSU’s depth at the position indicates that won’t be as consistent as last year.

Even though he’s taken on a decreased role this season, Mi cah Baskerville earned the game ball, attributing a blocked punt on special teams and a pick-six. He described the accomplishment as special.“Iwas just doing my part for the team,” Baskerville said. “I wasn’t really expecting that.”

LSU breaks first quarter record, shows improvement

Despite being taken out early in the second quarter, Jayden Dan iels threw three touchdowns at near perfect efficiency (91% com pletion rate) and added a fourth on the ground. Armoni Goodwin and Noah Cain combined for 136 rushing yards, with Goodwin’s contributions coming early and Cain’s coming later in the game.

He didn’t muff a punt through out the half, and place kicker Damian Ramos and the special teams offensive line would follow suit, as all seven first half extra points went through the uprights. And the special teams unit didn’t stop there, blocking a punt late in the first to extend LSU’s lead to 37, a first quarter record.

While success defending the third down and improvements in the offensive line weren’t evi dent based on their opponents, Southern only converted two third downs and had one sack. This doesn’t mean LSU will have similar success against Mississippi State next week, but it’s a good sign.

In the School of Art, experi mentation is encouraged and fos tered, Chastant said. According to him, it’s possible to turn in a “bad sketch,” for example, and still re ceive good grades on the assign ment, adding that grading could be tailored to a student’s growth or could be based upon the jour ney the work took to end up that way.“You can fail completely,”

The LSU and Southern bands perform together during half time on Sep. 10 during LSU’s 65-17 win over Southern at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, La.

With LSU’s football team kick ing off its season this past week, many players stepped onto the field with the hope of impressing NFL scouts. The dream for most college football players, of course, is to one day play at the highest level.This weekend was especially important for the Tigers’ most re cent draftees who were selected in the 2022 NFL Draft, as it rep resents their first chance to prove themselves in front of a national audience after an offseason spent in training camps. Of the 16 LSU players who declared for the draft, nine have now earned their way to NFL rosters.

FOOTBALL SOCCER

The first instance of the 3-52 being used was against Cen tral Florida in the second game of the season. LSU was strug gling to keep possession in the midfield due to being outnum bered in that part of the pitch.

Formations in soccer are ever changing. Earlier in the season we talked about the 4-3-3 being used by LSU Coach Sian Hudson and the different areas of the field and who plays there.Since then, formations have been added to combat oppo nents that may have a more passive approach, meaning that their defense stays closer to the goal line to help their goal keeper defend. This is when the 3-5-2 comes into play.

So when should we expect the 4-3-3 and when should we expect the 3-5-2? It can vary.

Neil Farrell Jr., Las Vegas Raiders

Now a member of the 49ers, he is the No. 3 running back on the depth chart behind Elijah Mitchell and Jeff Wilson Jr. Davis-Price was efficient with the touches he was given in the preseason and proved he was worthy of his third round selection.

two preseason games after a groin injury suffered in his first game caused him to have to sit out the next week. In the preseason, he came up with five tackles.

In the middle of the mid field, the Tigers have shown to be varied in their personnel. At times fans could see a partner ship of Jaden Humbyrd and Ida Hermannsdottir. These two ap pear to be the first choices for those positions, due to the form and skill of both. If these two are in, expect to see a ton of movement in that region of the field.Lastly, the two strikers up top provide an extra level to the offense. They help to finish off the chances created by the midfield. The forwards of note so far this year have been Tay lor Dobles, Mollie Baker and Alesia Garcia. There are more who may sub in, but these three have seen the field the most.

Take the Grambling match, for example. Grambling expect ed to have a rough night. The team played well, though, and forced the pressure to come to its defenders. Talk of an upset arose when Grambling notched an early goal. While the sheer attacking force brought for ward by LSU didn’t allow that to play out, it’s clear that this can be a strategy used by other teams.So, with the 3-5-2, LSU is trying to get more bodies for ward into the attack. For the defense, this means taking one of the defenders away and slot ting them into the midfield. So far, the two main defenders are still Shannon Cooke and Lindsi Jennings.
