1st Quarter

• Braelin Moore was injured early in the game. The last thing you want to see in this type of game is an injury to a major contributor. DJ Chester will slide over from guard to center.
• And now there's an interception on an underthrown ball that was deflected. It would have been a touchdown to Barion Brown if the pass had been hit.
• Now tackle Weston Davis is down, along with a Louisiana Tech defender. That's two starting offensive linemen down for the Tigers in the first six minutes of game time.
• Damian Ramos misses the go-ahead field goal, but wait, LSU called a timeout right before he kicked to give him another chance. Then Ramos missed the follow-up.
• Zavion Thomas is working in the run game again! He bursts for a 48-yard game to get the Tigers in striking distance.
• LSU finally opens up the scoring with a Nussmeier pass to Nic Anderson for six! LSU up 7-0.

Second Quarter

• The Tigers' defense has remained stout. Whit Weeks is standing out, as well as the continued blitzing of cornerbacks.
• Run blocking has left a lot to be desired in this one.
• Back-to-back pass interference penalties has LSU in striking distance.
• Offense stalls in the red zone, but Ramos finally puts a field goal through the uprights. LSU is up 10-0.
• A fourth pass interference called on the Bulldogs in this half.
• The Tigers' offensive line has not been able to hang in this one, either in pass protection or run blocking. A sack will pretty much seal heading into halftime with it being 10-0.

Third Quarter

• Defense picks up where it left off and forces a punt.
• The big play through the air finally comes as Nussmeier hits Aaron Anderson for 23-yards.

• Caden Durham finds the end zone to cap off the advantageous drive for the LSU offense. Tigers up 17-0.

Fourth Quarter

• Trey'Dez Green went down on the field. He was able to walk off, but didn't look too comfortable.
• Good to see Nussmeier and Anderson picking up steam again. Looks like that connection will be crucial for the offense this year.
• Ugly coverage sack taken by Nussmeier and a nine-yard loss makes it a tougher attempt for Ramos.
• Ramos drills a 46-yarder to put LSU up by three more, Tigers now up 20-0.
• Busted coverage with LSU selling out for a sack leads to the Tigers allowing their first touchdown in six quarters. Tigers still up 20-7.
