LSU goes for its second straight win on Saturday afternoon when it takes on SEC rival South Carolina
The LSU Tigers hit the road on Saturday afternoon to take on the South Carolina Gamecocks in their first SEC conference game of the season. The Tigers bounced back from a loss last weekend to beat Nicholls 44-21. The Tigers had lost their first game to USC the previous Sunday, but shook off a slow start to pull away from Nicholls to get their first win. They were up just two early in the third quarter, but scored the last three touchdowns of the game to pick up the blowout win. Garrett Nussmeier was good throughout the game as he went 27-37 for 302 yards and six touchdowns through the air. Kyren Lacy was the beneficiary of three of those touchdown passes. Lacy ended the day with five catches for 65 yards and those three scores. Nussmeier will have to be good again on Saturday if they want to knock off a South Carolina team that has won its first two games.
