LSU football vs Louisiana Tech score prediction, scouting report
Everything you need to know for LSU football's showdown against Louisiana Tech. What to watch for in Saturday night.
Baton Rouge - LSU football demonstrated remarkable composure as they cruised to a 51-10 victory over Clemson in Kiffin's first game, handling a two-hour lightning delay with ease. Now, the LSU Tigers (1-0) head to face their in-state rivals, Louisiana Tech (1-0), this Saturday, September 12. LSU will be paying Louisiana Tech $1.6 million for the game, a sum that has totaled $2.1 million for the two nonconference matchups against Clemson and Tech so far this season.
Louisiana Tech, under head coach Sonny Cumbie, operates with a tempo-style offense which could present challenges for LSU's defense. However, coaching staff Blake Baker and LSU are well-prepared to handle the quick pace set by Tech. The Tigers' defense has been effective in stopping big plays, particularly in stopping rushing plays from opponents like Clemson.
Louisiana Tech's defense, however, is a work in progress, returning only two starters from last season's team that struggled against LSU. With Louisiana Tech's offense expected to be stronger than Clemson's, LSU's offense is projected to dominate this matchup, with a likely score of LSU 42, Louisiana Tech 14.
