Myles Brennan is out indefinitely after injuring his non-throwing arm. That means Max Johnson is the Tigers’ starter, and Garrett Nussmeier must be ready whenever his named is called.
On the other side of the ball, the Tigers are stacked at cornerback, suddenly deep at safety, and have questions to answer – but talent to answer those questions – at linebacker.
And on special teams, LSU’s kicking game is as good as its ever been with Cade York and Avery Atkins, while the returner and punter roles have options to choose from.
