BATON ROUGE — The LSU football team was forced to move into the LSU Indoor Practice Facility due to the threat of severe thunderstorms that hit the north part of the city on Tuesday afternoon.
The Tiger practiced indoor for a little more than two hours in full pads in preparation for the season opener against the Western Carolina Catamounts on Sept. 2 at 7 p.m. in Tiger Stadium.
LSU will scrimmage in Tiger Stadium for the second time this fall on Wednesday afternoon about 3:30 p.m. The scrimmage is a closed practice and coach Saban will address the media upon its conclusion.
Tickets to the season opener are still available online via LSUsports.net or by calling the LSU Ticket Office at 225-388-2184.
