Lane Kiffin challenges his No. 8 LSU Tigers to approach Louisiana Tech the same way they did Clemson
LSU coach Lane Kiffin says he's been challenging the No. 8 Tigers to approach Saturday night's game against Louisiana Tech the same way they did their 51-10 season-opening victory over Clemson. Kiffin says it can be challenging to maintain the same intensity and focus every week, particularly when playing against teams that do not belong to power conferences.
But Kiffin says there are reasons to take the Bulldogs seriously, starting with the 80 points they scored in their season opener against Northwestern State. Kiffin says Louisiana Tech's unusual defensive alignment creates a different set of challenges for the Tigers' offense. Louisiana Tech also visited LSU last season. The Tigers won that game 23-7.
