LSU rolls past Louisiana Tech, but offensive warning signs emerge

LSU coach Lane Kiffin has his team in the perfect place as preparation for the Southeastern Conference opener at Ole Miss begins.

LSU had been crowned the nation’s best after its beatdown of Clemson in Tiger Stadium to start the 2026 season. However, only half of the LSU team performed at that level against Louisiana Tech on Saturday night.

The Tigers’ defense was, simply put, smothering.

However, the Tigers’ offense did very little for two quarters.
